You're playing a game of pool and it's your turn, but you have no direct shots. To make any shot, you will need to bank the cue ball (the white ball) off the side of the table before it hits your ball.
That means that you hit the cue ball so that it bounces off the side and then hits your colored ball, moving it in the direction of a pocket (hole). The angle that the ball hits the bumper is equal to the angle that it bounces off the bumper.

Aspacecraft can attain a stable orbit 300 kilometers above earth if it reaches a velocity of 7.7 kilometers per second. the formula for a rocket's maximum velocity v in kilometers per second is vequalsminus0.0098tplusc ln upper r, where t is the firing time in seconds, c is the velocity of the exhaust in kilometers per second, and r is the ratio of the mass of the rocket filled with fuel to the mass of the rocket without fuel. find the velocity of a spacecraft whose booster rocket has a mass ratio of 20, an exhaust velocity of 2.1 km/s, and a firing time of 15 s. can the spacecraft achieve a stable orbit 300 km above earth?
