Lab Writing Project I
Answer the questions using techniques we've developed in class. Explain your methods to the best of your ability, and show any work or graphs you use. You may work together in groups of no more than 3 on this project. You will be graded on your results, clarity, and presentation.
Goal:
We have launched a probe at a gas-shrouded planet, but some of its systems failed when it entered the cloud cover. We need you to present an analysis of the data we've recovered to discover wthat happened to the probe.
Recovered Data:
Our probe was traveling at a constant speed of 1.45 kilometers per second toward the surface of the planet when it first made contact with the cloud bank. At that point, we lost the ability to monitor most systems, and the emergency retro rockets fired. These rockets provided an acceleration of 32.8 m/s^2 directly away from the planet, and had fuel enough for exactly 1 minute. Once the fuel was exhausted, the probe would have been in free fall until we lost contact completely 55.7 seconds later, presumably because the probe struck the surface. We know that the planet's mass provided a constant acceleration due to gravity of 10 m/s^2.
Analysis: We need you to determine (1) exactly how far above the planet's surface the cloud cover extends and (2) what was the total distance traveled by the probe after we lost contact. Please include any functions or graphs relevant to answering these questions in your report.
