A spacecraft cruising in space at a constant velocity of 2100 ft/s has a mass of 24,000 lbm. To slow down the spacecraft, a solid fuel rocket is fired, and the combustion gases leave the rocket at a constant rate of 150 lbm/s at a velocity of 5000 ft/s in the same direction as the spacecraft for a period of 5 s. Assuming the mass of the spacecraft remains constant, determine the following:
The deceleration of the spacecraft during this 5 s period.
The change in velocity of the spacecraft during this time period.
The thrust exerted on the spacecraft.
Consider an airplane with a jet engine attached to the tail section that expels combustion gases at a rate of 18 kg/s with a velocity of V = 300 m/s relative to the plane. During landing, a thrust reverser (which serves as a brake for the aircraft and facilitates landing on a short runway) is lowered in the path of the exhaust jet, which deflects the exhaust rearward 120 degrees, as shown below.
Determine (a) the thrust (forward force) that the engine produces prior to the insertion of the thrust reverser and (b) the braking force produced after the thrust reverser is deployed.
A spacecraft is moving in gravity-free space along a straight path when its pilot decides to accelerate forward.
He turns on the thrusters, and burned fuel is ejected at a constant rate of 2.0 × 102 kg/s, at a speed (relative to
the rocket) of 2.5 × 10² m/s. The initial mass of the spacecraft and its unburned fuel is 2.0 × 104 kg, and the
thrusters are on for 30 s.
a. What is the thrust (the force applied to the rocket by the ejected fuel) on the spacecraft?
b. What is the spacecraft's acceleration as a function of time?
c. What are the spacecraft's accelerations at t = 0, 15, 30, and 35 s?
