Question
The impulse J due to a force F is the product of the force times the amount of time t for which the force acts. When the force varies over time, . We can model the force acting on a rocket during launch by an exponential function , where A and b are constants that depend on the characteristics of the engine. At the instant lift-oft occurs (t=0), the force must equal the weight of the rocket. (a) Suppose the rocket weighs 25,000 N (a mass of about 2500 kg or a weight of 5500 lb), and 30 seconds after lift-off the force acting on the rocket equals twice the weight of the rocket. Find A and b. (b) Find the impulse delivered to the rocket during the first 30 seconds after the launch.
