a model rocket of mass 0.5\,\mathrm{kg}0.5kg reaches a velocity of 70 \,\mathrm{m/s}70m/s over an interval of 10 seconds after launching from rest. what is the average force applied by the rocket engine to the rocket?



Answer :

3.5 Newton is the average force applied by the rocket engine to the rocket.

we have given data.

mass m = 0.5 kg

initial speed u = 0

final speed v = 70 m/s

time t = 10 sec

acceleration a = v-u/t

a = 70-0/10 = 7 m/s^2

from the relation

f = ma

f = 0.5×7 = 3.5 N

The direction of the applied force determines the change in a body's linear momentum, which changes at a rate that is directly proportional to the force.

The SI unit of force is the Newton. It is described as the force that propels a mass of 1 kilogram at an acceleration of 1 meter per second squared. Its sign is the capital letter N, which is represented as 1N=1 kg m s^2. 1N=1 kilogram m s^−2.
