1) A small rocket is being designed to make wind shear measurements in the vicinity of thunderstorms. Before testing begins‚ the designers are developing a simulation of the rocket’s trajectory. They have derived the following equation that they believe will predict the performance of the test rocket‚ where t is time elapsed in seconds. The equation gives the height above the ground level at time t. The first term (60) is the height above ground level of the nose of the rocket. height = 60 + 2

accepted value of acceleration due to gravity is . In this activity‚ an air-cart’s motion will be graphically analyzed. A mass will be attached to the air-cart by a string and hung over pulley with the other end attached to an air-cart resting on a frictionless surface. The study of the motion of the system of masses will be used to determine the velocity of the masses from an analysis of the displacement versus time data. This velocity will then be used to calculate the acceleration of the system

------------------------------------------------- Rocket A rocket is a missile‚ spacecraft‚ aircraft or other vehicle which obtains thrust from a rocket engine. In all rockets‚ the exhaust is formed entirely from propellants carried within the rocket before use.[1] Rocket engines work by action and reaction. Rocket engines push rockets forwards simply by throwing their exhaust backwards extremely fast. Rockets for military and recreational uses date back to at least 13th century China.[2] Significant

Free fall and the acceleration due to gravity Problem/Question: How do you measure the acceleration of a falling object? Hypothesis: by measuring velocities of a falling ball then applying the data into equations numerous times‚ the results should approach to the acceleration. Variables: A: Independent Velocity B:Dependant Acceleration C:Constant Distance (photo gates) Materials: Photo gates‚ Clay ball‚ Photo gates machine.

was how high my bottle rocket went. Since the purpose of my experiment was to find out amount of water made an air-pumped bottle rocket go higher‚ I had to first learn how to build an air-pumped bottle rocket. After searching on the internet for about 5 minutes I learned how to build one. It took me few days to retrieve the materials that I needed and to find a pump for my rocket. Following the instructions I found online‚ I spent about 30 minutes building a bottle rocket with a cone and fins using

Baking Soda and Vinegar Rocket All the materials you will need are very simple house hold; scissors‚ balloon‚ vinegar‚ baking soda‚ rubber band‚ empty bottle‚ clear wrap‚ straight pin‚ marker‚ thin piece of wood‚ drinking straws‚ and duct tape. One of the first steps is to make the rocket fuel the key component in this rocket. I began with placing ¼ or 1/3 of vinegar in a normal size bottle‚ after that you will make the baking soda bomb. You take a piece of clear wrap and place a good amount of

Introduction A water bottle rocket is essentially that; a bottle modified in the image of a rocket then filled with a select amount of water that is pressurised and launched into the air due to the forces pushing the rocket upwards from the launcher. When the completed water bottle rocket is sitting on the launcher‚ the force of the surface of the launcher pushes the rocket up whilst gravity drags it down. As the fluid inside the rocket is pressurized‚ the forces become unbalanced

Extended Investigation | Liam Hallam Cameron Martin | Bottle Rockets | Table of Contents This extended investigation serves to examine and evaluate the physical forces that affect the flight of a bottle rocket. This will be accomplished by altering the water levels and the level of air pressure (psi) within the rocket will be altered‚ and tested‚ to further understand the mechanics of bottle rockets. Introduction Rocket flight has long been at the forefront of the human race’s exploration
