Textbook Question

Chapter 11, Problem 84EAP

Section 11.6 found an equation for v_m_a_xof a rocket fired in deep space. What is v_m_a_xfor a rocket fired vertically from the surface of an airless planet with free-fall acceleration g? Referring to Section 11.6, you can write an equation for ?P_ythe change of momentum in the vertical direction, in terms of dm and dv_y. ?P_yis no longer zero because now gravity delivers an impulse. Rewrite the momentum equation by including the impulse due to gravity during the time dt during which the mass changes by dm. Pay attention to signs! Your equation will have three differentials, but two are related through the fuel burn rate R. Use this relationship—again pay attention to signs; m is decreasing—to write your equation in terms of dm and d_v_y. Then integrate to find a modified expression for v_m_a_x, at the instant all the fuel has been burned.

a. What is v_m_a_xfor a vertical launch from an airless planet? Your answer will be in terms of m_R, the empty rocket mass: m_F₀, the initial fuel mass; v_e_x, the exhaust speed; R, the fuel burn rate; and g.

b. A rocket with a total mass of 330.000 kg when fully loaded burns all 280,000 kg of fuel in 250 s. The engines generate 4.1 MN of thrust. What is this rocket’s speed at the instant all the fuel has been burned if it is launched in deep space? If it is launched vertically from the earth?

Part C Find the height yi from which the rock was launched. Express your answer in meters to three significant figures. Learning Goal: To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 4.1 for projectile motion problems. A rock thrown with speed 12.0 m/s and launch angle 30.0 ∘ (above the horizontal) travels a horizontal distance of d = 19.0 m before hitting the ground. From what height was the rock thrown? Use the value g = 9.800 m/s2 for the free-fall acceleration. PROBLEM-SOLVING STRATEGY 4.1 Projectile motion problems MODEL: Is it reasonable to ignore air resistance? If so, use the projectile motion model. VISUALIZE: Establish a coordinate system with the x-axis horizontal and the y-axis vertical. Define symbols and identify what the problem is trying to find. For a launch at angle θ, the initial velocity components are vix=v0cosθ and viy=v0sinθ. SOLVE: The acceleration is known: ax=0 and ay=−g. Thus, the problem becomes one of…
