Chapter 8, Problem 8.11E

CALC At time t = 0 a 2150-kg rocket in outer space fires an engine that exerts an increasing force on it in the +x-direction. This force obeys the equation Fx = At2. where t is time, and has a magnitude of 781.25 N when t = 1.25 s. (a) Find the SI value of the constant A. including its units, (b) What impulse does the engine exert on the rocket during the 1.50-s interval starting 2.00 s after the engine is fired? (c) By how much does the rocket’s velocity change during this interval? Assume constant mass.
