Chapter , Problem 95

(choose chapter or problem)

The Lunar Module could make a safe landing if its verticalvelocity at impact is 3.0 m/s or less. Suppose that you wantto determine the greatest height h at which the pilot couldshut off the engine if the velocity of the lander relative tothe surface is (a) zero; (b) 2.0 m/s downward; (c) 2.0 m/supward. Use conservation of energy to determine h ineach case. The acceleration due to gravity at the surface ofthe Moon is 1.62 m/s2
