A rocket is travelling upwards at a velocity of 413 km/h. Its engine cuts off after which it continues moving up but slows down at a rate of -13.7 m/S?. The scientists launching it want it to reach its highest point (with a velocity of zero) within 30 seconds. Is it able to do so? (Hint: convert v, in part A)
A: Pictorial Representation
Sketch showing events, coordinate system, label givens & unknowns using symbols, conversions, describe events
B: Physics Representation
Motion diagram, velocity graph, velocity vectors, events
C: Word Representation
Describe motion (no numbers), assumptions, estimated result (no calculations)
D: Mathematical Representation
Describe purpose of math, complete equations, algebraically isolate, substitutions with units, final statement of prediction
