Chapter 8, Problem 39P

The upward velocity of a rocket can be computed by the following formula:

v = u In m 0 m 0 q t g t

where v = upward velocity, u = the velocity at which fuel is expelled relative to the rocket, m 0 = the initial mass of the rocket at time t = 0 , q = the fuel consumption rate, and g = the downward acceleration of gravity ( assumed constant  = 9.81 m / s 2 ) . IF u = 2200   m / s, m 0 = 160 , 000  kg, and  q = 2680 kg / s , compute the time at which v = 1000 m / s . (Hint: t is somewhere between 10 and 50 s.) Determine your result so that it is within 1% of the true value. Check your answer.

Question: Let F be a field. Prove that F contains a unique smallest subfield, called the prime subfield, which is isomorphic to either Q or Zp for some prime p. Instructions: • Begin by identifying the identity element 1 € F. • Use the closure under addition and inverses to build a subring. • • • Show that either the map ZF or Q →F is an embedding. Prove minimality and uniqueness. Discuss the characteristic of a field and link it to the structure of the prime subfield.
