The 222-kg lunar lander is descending onto the moon's surface with a velocity of 4.5 m/s when its retro-engine is fired. If the engine produces a thrust T for 4.2 s which varies with the time as shown and then cuts off, calculate the velocity of the lander when t = 5.3 s assuming that it has not yet landed. Gravitational acceleration at the moon's surface is 1.62 m/s?. The velocity is positive if moving downward, negative if up.

Q17. As shown in the image below, the 0.7-kg ball strikes the rough ground and rebounds. The directions of its velocities before and after the strike are shown. If the speeds are v₁ = 27 m/s and v₂ = 12 m/s, determine the magnitude of the impulse (in N.s) the ground exerts on the ball. Assume that the ball does not slip when it strikes the ground, and neglect the size of the ball and the impulse produced by the weight of the ball. Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they are randomized. Your answer must include 2 places after the decimal point. V₁ Your Answer: 45° Answer 30° 02
The 0.6-lb particle is guided along the circular path using the slotted arm guide. Motion occurs in the horizontal plane with negligible friction. Note that the circular part of the slot has the radius equal to 0.5 ft, and the radial position, r, is measured from the hinge and the angle is measured in the counter-clockwise direction. If the arm has an angular velocity = 4 rad/sec and an angular acceleration 6 - 8 rad/sec² at the instant when 0 = 30°, determine the force of the arm guide on the particle at the instant. Present your answer in lb using 3 significant figures. 0.5 ft 0 0.5 ft.

The mass of the ball is m = 20 kg and the length of the light rod is /= 0.52 m. The ball-rod assembly is free to rotate about a vertical axis through O. The carriage, rod, and ball are initially at rest with 0 = 0 when the carriage is given a constant acceleration ao = 5.4 m/s². Write an expression for the tension T in the rod as a function of 0 and calculate T for the position 0 = TT/2. Answers: T = i - ! N
A cart has a mass of 1.5 kg. It is given some initial push toward a sensor and is slowed by a hanging mass which makes the cart turn around and speed up as it returns to its original position. This situation is illustrated in the attached image. If the acceleration towards the sensor is 0.5 m/s2 and the accaleration away from the sensor is 0.15 m/s2, a. draw the free body diagrams for the cart moving towards the sensor and away from the sensor. b. Write Newton's law for both situations and solve for the frictional force and for the force from the hanging mass.
