# A rocket is started from the surface of the earth. Calculating the height as function of its mass and fuel consumption. # Approximation of gravity of earth by g # Equation of motion # r'' = alpha / (m0 - alpha*t) * v0 - g # alpha: fuel consumption, e.g. 2000t in 2,5 min = 13,333*10^3 kg/s # m0: initial mass of rocket, e.g. Saturn V: 2900 t = 2,9*10^6 kg # v0: the velocity of the exhaust of the rocket: 3,180*10^3 m/s # g: acceleration of earth = 9,81 m/s^2 include CompoundFunctions.LACE # include idivide coefficient.1 -> alpha1 coefficient.2(+1) -> alpha2 # == alpha1 coefficient.3(-1) -> -m0 coefficient.4 -> v0 coefficient.5(+1) -> g # generate t-ramp iintegrate (-1) -> t cmultiply (alpha1, t) -> alpha*t isum (-m0, alpha*t) -> m0-alpha*t idivide (alpha2, m0-alpha*t) -> -alpha/(m0-alpha*t) cmultiply (-alpha/(m0-alpha*t), v0) -> -alpha/(m0-alpha*t)*v0 isum(-alpha/(m0-alpha*t)*v0, g) -> alpha/(m0-alpha*t)*v0-g iintegrate (alpha/(m0-alpha*t)*v0-g) -> -v invert (-v) -> v iintegrate (-v) -> z output (t) -> out.x output (v) -> out.y output (z) -> out.z
