Chapter 14.1, Problem 14.17P
A 2-kg model rocket is launched vertically and reaches an altitude of 70 m with a speed of 30 m/s at the end of powered flight, time t = 0. As the rocket approaches its maximum altitude, it explodes into two parts of masses = 0.7 kg and mg = 1.3 kg. Part A is observed to strike the ground 80 m west of the launch point at t = 6 s. Determine the position of part B at that time.

Two equal-length springs are "nested" together in order to form a shock absorber. If it is designed to stop the
motion of a 2-kg mass that is dropped 0.5 m above the top of the springs from rest position, and the
maximum compression of the springs is to be 0.2 m, determine the required stiffness of the inner spring, K,
if the outer spring has a stiffness k, = 400 N/m.
A 0.80 kg mass is hung from a string of 0.70 meters. On its next pass, the mass strikes a spring, With spring constant 15 N/M,At the very bottom of its trajectory. If all the masses energy is transferred to the spring, how much does the spring compress relative to its equilibrium position?
