Randall D. Knight β Dynamics II: Motion in a Plane: Problem 1
As a science fair project, you want to launch a 600 g model rocket straight up and hit a horizontally moving target as it passes 25 m above the launch point. The rocket engine provides a constant thrust of 12 N. The target is approaching at a speed of 10 m/s. At what horizontal distance between the target and rocket should you launch?
π Solution Approach
Given: 600 g, 25 m, 12 N, 10 m
