Arocket is fired vertically until it is 100 km above the earth's surface where its speed is 5000 m/s, and then its fuel is exhausted. (a) how far from the earth does it go? (b) what would be its speed when it returns and hits the earth if the effect of the atmosphere could be ignored?

Which of the following changes to a pipe would increase the conductance by a factor of 12? 1.quadrupling the length and tripling the radius.2.reducing the length by a factor of and doubling the radius.3.tripling the length and reducing the radius by a factor of .4.reducing the length but a factor of and doubling the radius.

Aspring has a natural length of 8 m. if a 12-n force is required to keep it stretched to a length of 10 m, how much work w is required to stretch it from 8 m to 16 m? (round your answer to two decimal places.)

Awater balloon launcher uses an elastic band with a spring constant of 115 n/m to use thee launcher you stretch thee band back with a balloon n it the water balloons have a mass of 1.3 kg a) if you stretch the band by 0.8 m, what elastic force will the band exert? b) with the band stretched 0.8 m, how much elastic potential energy is stored in the spring? c) if you release the band, it pushes forward. what is the kinetic energy of the balloon when it reaches the natural length of the band? d) what is the speed of the balloon when it reaches the natural length of the band?
