When a rocket reaches maximum height what is its velocity?
A model rocket reaches maximum velocity at the point where the thrust from the engine matches the drag from the air, or the point where the thrust goes to zero when the fuel burns out, whichever comes first.
What speed rocket starts?
A rocket's speed at launch is typically zero, as it starts from a stationary position on the ground. The rocket gradually accelerates as it is propelled by its engines, reaching higher speeds as it ascends into space.
How to know the maximum height of a rocket?
The maximum height of a rocket can be calculated using its initial speed and angle of launch. By analyzing its projectile motion, you can determine the peak height using the equations of motion. The maximum height occurs when the vertical velocity component becomes zero before the rocket starts descending.
When does a model rocket attain maximum height?
when the vertical component of its velocity is zero.
When a football kicked reaches its maximum height how does its speed compare to its initial speed?
When it's at its maximum height its speed will be zero.
When will a body have zero speed?
yes it is possible to get a zero speed 4 a body but nly whn the universe come to a stand still n gravity will b zero...........................
How can you throw a projectile so that it has zero speed at the top?
To have zero speed at the top, you need to throw the projectile with an initial velocity such that it reaches its maximum height at that point. This requires the initial velocity to be exactly equal to the velocity that would be attained due to gravity when the projectile falls from that height. The angle of projection should be such that the vertical component of the initial velocity cancels out the velocity due to gravity.
How is the force of earths gravity overcome when an object is launched into space?
When on Earth, you can escape if you move away from the Earth at the "escape" speed. Gravity will slow you down and you will reach zero speed at an infinite distance.
Can an object have a speed of 0 while it has an acceleration that is not 0?
Yes. Acceleration is independent of speed. A perfect example of an object with zero speed but nonzero acceleration is an object at the apex of being thrown upward. The entire time it is in the air it is accelerating downward. At its maximum height its speed is zero.
What is a space shuttle's lift off speed?
Since just before liftoff the speed is zero, the speed 'at liftoff' is just a tiny bit faster than zero. The speed gets faster and faster as time passes and the rocket moves up. The Space Shuttle goes from zero to 17,000 mph in 8.5 minutes. The speed of the gases exiting the Solid Rocket Booster motor is 6,000 mph -- three times the speed of a high-powered rifle.
What are the characteristic of light at zero gravity?
When there's no gravity, light just travels in one direction at the speed of light. Gravity bends the direction at which light travels.
A rocket will move upward as long as the thrust is greater than the force of gravity?
Actually for some time even after the thrust is no longer greater than gravity. When the rocket's thrust is greater than gravity, it will be accelerating (its velocity upwards will increase). When the rocket's thrust is no longer greater than gravity, at that moment it will still have an upward velocity, so it will still travel upwards - it will only travel more and more slowly upwards as gravity starts to sap the rocket's upward velocity towards zero. Once its velocity reaches zero, if gravity is still winning over the rocket's thrust (if any), then it will start to fall back towards the ground.We are assuming a simplistic model (no air resistance, no super-unlucky collisions with meteors, etc.), but this is the basic idea.
