Chapter 9, Problem 64P
You’re working in quality control for a model rocket manufacturer. testing a class-D rocket whose specifications call for an impulse between 10 and 20 N·s. The rocket’s burn time is Δt = 2.8 s, and its thrust during that time is F(t) = at(t − Δt), where a = −4.6 N/s2. Does the rocket meet its specs?

A time-varying horizontal force F(t) = At3 + Bt2 acts a 10.0-kg object, starting at time t = 1.0 s to t = 5.0 s. In the SI system, A has the numerical value 4.0 and B has the numerical value 3.0.
(a) What are the SI units of A and B?
(b) What impulse does this force impart to the object?
A 6 kg object is initially at rest. It experiences a net force that acts from t = 0 s to t = 3.1 s. The force is given by Fnet(t) = 5 t2 i + 5 t6 j (N). Calculate the speed of the mass after this impulse, in m/s.
