A 400g model rocket is on a cart that is rolling to the right at a speed of 4.0m/s. The rocket engine, when it is fired, exerts an 7.0 N thrust on the rocket. Your goal is to have the rocket pass through a small horizontal hoop that is 15m above the launch point. At what horizontal distance left of the loop... show more A 400g model rocket is on a cart that is rolling to the right at a speed of 4.0m/s.

Let's return to our thought experiment from earlier in this lesson. Consider a cannonball projected horizontally by a cannon from the top of a very high cliff. In the absence of gravity, the cannonball would continue its horizontal motion at a constant velocity. This is consistent with the law of inertia. And furthermore, if merely dropped from rest in the presence of gravity, the cannonball would accelerate downward, gaining speed at a rate of 9.8 m/s every second.
