Answer:
i) E = 269 [MJ] ii)v = 116 [m/s]
Explanation:
This is a problem that encompasses the work and principle of energy conservation.
In this way, we establish the equation for the principle of conservation and energy.
i)
[tex]E_{k1}+W_{1-2}=E_{k2}\\where:\\E_{k1}= kinetic energy at moment 1\\W_{1-2}= work between moments 1 and 2.\\E_{k2}= kinetic energy at moment 2.[/tex]
[tex]W_{1-2}= (F*d) - (m*g*h)\\W_{1-2}=(500000*2.5*10^3)-(40000*9.81*2.5*10^3)\\W_{1-2}= 269*10^6[J] or 269 [MJ][/tex]
At that point the speed 1 is equal to zero, since the maximum height achieved was 2.5 [km]. So this calculated work corresponds to the energy of the rocket.
Er = 269*10^6[J]
ii ) With the energy calculated at the previous point, we can calculate the speed developed.
[tex]E_{k2}=0.5*m*v^2\\269*10^6=0.5*40000*v^2\\v=\sqrt{\frac{269*10^6}{0.5*40000} }\\ v=116[m/s][/tex]
