An ice sled powered by a rocket engine starts from rest on a large frozen lake and accelerates at +35 ft/s2. after some time t1, the rocket engine is shut down and the sled moves with constant velocity v for a time t2. if the total distance traveled by the sled is 16350 ft and the total time is 90 s. find the following. (a) find the times t1 and t2. t1 t2 (b) find the velocity v. ft/s at the 15750 ft mark, the sled begins to accelerate at -21 ft/s2. (c) what is the final position of the sled when it comes to rest? ft (d) what is the duration of the entire trip?

(a) 5.35 s, 84.65 s

The distance covered by the rocket during the first part of the motion (accelerated motion) is

(1)

where

a = +35 ft/s^2 is the acceleration

While the distance covered during the second part of the motion (uniform motion) is

where v is the constant speed reached after the first part of the motion, which is given by

So we can rewrite the equation as

(2)

We also know:

(3) is the total distance

(4) is the total time

We can rewrite (3) as

(5)

And (4) as

Substituting into (5), we get

Substituting a=+35 ft/s^2, we have

which has two solutions:

--> discarded, since the total time cannot be greater than 90 s

--> this is the correct solution

And therefore is

(b) 187.25 ft/s

The velocity v is the velocity at the end of the accelerated motion of the rocket, so after

The acceleration is

a = +35 ft/s^2

Therefore, the velocity after the first part is:

(c) 16,585 ft

At the 15750 ft mark, the velocity of the sled is

Then, it starts decelerating with acceleration

a = -21 ft/s^2

So, its distance covered during this part of the motion will be given by:

where

vf = 0 is the final speed

v = 187.25 ft/s is the initial speed

a = -21 ft/s^2 is the acceleration

d3 is the distance covered during this part

Solving for d3,

So, the final position of the sled will be

(d) 93.92 s

The duration of the first part of the motion is

The distance covered during this part is

In the second part (uniform motion), the sled continues with constant speed until the 15750 ft mark, so the distance covered is

And so the duration of the second part is

While the duration of the third part (decelerated motion) is

So the total duration is

t = 5.35 s+79.65 s+8.92 s=93.92 s

answer;

d. are made mostly of liquid

explanation;

-the general   composition and structure planets includes; they have a thick gas and liquid layer covering a small,solid core. mostly the gases are hydrogen and helium atmosphere and layers of liquid hydrogen. for instance neptune and uranus are examples of the outer planets, they have a core covered by ice and ammonia.

-neptune's atmosphere is hydrogen and helium with a bit of methane so there is no oxygen to breath and the interior is made up of frozen water and ammonia with a rock and iron core. thus, there is no liquid water or solid surface to survive.

305.7

explanation:

density =m/v

density =917/3.00

density = 305.

approximately = 305.7
