Dynamics. Acceleration of an resultant force
This online calculator illustrates the solution of the example problem on dynamics.
Problem:
When a rocket of mass m is launched, the thrust force of its engine, equal to F, is directed at an angle α to the horizon. Taking free fall acceleration g equal to 10 m/s², find the acceleration of the rocket a, i.e. the modulus of the acceleration and the angle between the acceleration and the horizon β.
Solution:
After inspecting the figure, it is clear that the resultant force R can be found through the cosine theorem, the modulus of acceleration is equal toR/m, and the angle can be found through the tangent, i.e., the ratio of the projection of the resultant force on the y-axis
to the projection of the resultant force on the x-axis
