What is the maximum altitude reached

Reference no: EM13555231

A model rocket fired vertically from the ground ascends with avertical acceleration of 3.2m/s² for 6.0 s. Its fuel isthen exhausted, so it continues upward as a free-fall particle andthen falls back down.

a) What is the maximum altitude reached? _____m
b) What is the total time elapsed from takeoff until the rocketstrikes the ground?______s

Find the angle and the tension in the wire : A small spherical insulator of mass 1.65 x 10-2 kgand charge +0.600 C is hung by a thin wire of negligible mass. A charge of-0.900 C is held 0.150 m away from the sphere and directly to the right of it, so the wire makes an angle with the vertical..

Magnitude ofthe net electric field at the origin : The drawing shows two situations in which charges are placed onthe x and y axes.

What is the volume of that entireregion : A total charge of 1.96 μC is distributed uniformly over anentire region, giving a charge per volume of 245μC/m3. A Gaussian surface encloses 1.23μC of that charge. What is the volume of that entireregion?

How far does the vehicle travel from start to stop : An electric vehicle starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of2.6 m/s2 in a straight lineuntil it reaches a speed of 20 m/s. The vehicle then slows at a constant rate of 1.0 m/s2 untilit stops. How much time elapses from start tostop?
