A rocket is launched at an angle of 50.0° above the horizontal with an initial speed of 102 m/s. The rocket moves for 3.00 s along its initial line of motion with an acceleration of 30.0 m/s2. At this time, its engines fail and the rocket proceeds to move as a projectile.
(a) Find the maximum altitude reached by the rocket.
m
(b) Find its total time of flight.
s
(c) Find its horizontal range.

A cart is attached to a hanging mass by a string that passes over a pulley. a) Draw free-body diagrams for the cart and the hanging mass (Clearly label all forces present and indicate their relative magnitudes) when the cart is moving:(i) on a horizontal track.(ii) up a track inclined at an angle .b) When the cart moves on an incline at constant speed, it is in equilibrium; i.e., the net force on it is zero. Does it require more, less, or the same tension in the string to pull the cart up the track at constant speed or down the track at constant speed? Explain your answer.c)Derive an equation for the work done by friction when the cart is moving up the track at constant speed. Show your work.

Two loudspeakers are located 3.50 m apart on an outdoor stage. A listener is 19.3 m from one and 20.2 m from the other. During the sound chek, a signal generator drives the two speakers in phase with the same amplitude and frequency. The transmitted frequency is swept through the audible range (20 Hz - 20 kHz). The speed of sound in the air is 343 m/s. What are the three lowest frequencies that give minimum signal (destructive interference) at the listener's location?
(a) Hz (lowest)
(b) Hz (second lowest)
(c) Hz (third lowest)
What are the three lowest frequencies that give maximum signal (constructive interference) at the listener's location?
(d) Hz (lowest)
(e) Hz (second lowest)
(f) Hz (third lowest)
