Matter's resistance to a change in motion is called and is directly proportional to the mass of an object

A1000-kg weather rocket is launched straight up. the rocket motor provides a constant acceleration for 16-s, then the motor stops. the rocket altitude 20-s after launch is 510-m. you can ignore any effects of air resistance. a. what was the rocket’s acceleration during the first 16-s? b. what is the rocket’s speed as it passes through a cloud 5100-m above the ground?

Yvette hangs a 2.4kg bird feeder in the middle of a rope tied between two trees. the feeder creates a tension of 480 n in each side of the the rope.

The man of mass m1 and the woman of mass m2 are standing on opposite ends of the platform of mass m0 which moves with negligible friction and is initially at rest with s = 0. the man and woman begin to approach each other. derive an expression for the displacement s of the platform when the two meet in terms of the displacement x1 of the man relative to the platform.
