Answer #1

initial velocity = Vi = 5 i^

final velocity = Vf = 6 i^ - 14 j^

time = t = 8 sec

acceleration is given as ::

a = (Vf - Vi )/t

a = ((6 i^ - 14 j^) - 5 i^) /8

a = (0.125)i^ - (1.75) j^

force is given as ::

F = ma

F = (2.6) (0.125)i^ - (1.75) j^

F = 0.325 i^ - 4.55 j^

component of force in X-direction ::

Fx = 0.325 N

component in Y-direction ::

Fy = -4.55 N

b)

magnitude of force is given as ::

F = sqrt (Fx2 + Fy2)

F = sqrt (0.3252 + (-4.55)2)

F = 4.562 N

    A rocket is fired at an angle from the top of a tower of height h0 = 40.0 m. Because of the design of the engines, its position coordinates are of the form x(t) = A + B t2   and   y(t) = C + D t3, where A, B, C and D are constants. The acceleration of the rocket 3.00 s after firing is a = (7.00 i + 5.00 j) m/s2. Take the origin of coordinates to be at...
