QUESTION 6 (COLLAB) A new design of Saturn 16 rocket with mass 1.95 x106 kg has a propulsion engine that can eject gases at a constant speed of 316.74 m/s (vGas) by burning fuel at a rate of 3.32 x10 5 kg/s (dmdT). In full tank, the rocket can carry a fuel of mass 45.34 x10 6 kg. If this design exceeds the velocity of 11,200 m/s it can successfully escape Earth's gravity. Determine if this is so. Find its maximum velocity (velyZ) in a PhysLab virtual simulation. (Pitch Angle = 0)

1. A cosmonaut (total mass is 150 kg, including himself, his space suit, oxygen tanks, and a toolbox) accidentally floats away from the Mir space station at 0.667m/s without a tether. What minimum speed and in what direction does he need to throw his 10 kg toolbox in order to stop floating away from Mir? Please make sure you draw a clear diagram, identify initial and final states of the system, draw a bar chart consistent with the situation, and explain your reasoning.
A wooden block is cut into two pieces, a piece AA with five times the mass of the other piece, B. A depression is made in both faces of the cut so that a firecracker can be placed in it with the block reassembled. The reassembled block is set on a rough-surfaced table, and the fuse is lit. When the firecracker explodes inside, the two blocks separate and slide apart. a) What is the ratio of the magnitudes of the distances each block travels?
Scenario: You have been chosen as the test subject for the newest attraction at Canada’s Wonderland. This attraction is a single-person roller coaster ride that has a 25.0 m drop followed by a plunger/piston device that brings the ride to rest. The plunger/piston is connected to a cylinder that contains 250 kg of water. The cart has a mass of 75.0 kg and starts at rest from the top of the track. To determine the total mass of the cart during the ride you must add your mass. As the cart moves down the track it has been determined that friction in the wheels and axles results in the production of 2750 J of thermal and sound energy combined. The plunger/piston at the bottom of the device has been designed to stop the cart with a maximum acceleration of 5.00 g’s (i.e. 49.0 m/s2). MY MASS: 66.2kg Problem 1: The cart with you inside of it starts from rest at the top of the ride. Determine the gravitational potential energy of the cart with you as the single passenger at the top of the ride.…

The puffer fish (tetradontiade) can employ a defense mechanism whereby it fills its stomach with water until the fish is almost spherical in shape. The shape, in conjunction with its external spines, are a significant deterrent to predators. Suppose that a puffer fish takes in water until its mass has increased by f = 1.89 times its initial mass. In this state, and initially at rest, the puffer fish expels the water with a speed s in one direction, while the fish recoils in the opposite direction at a speed v. For this problem neglect the drag-force effects of the surrounding ocean water. Write an expression for v/s in terms of f.
