Question

A rocket launches with a constant acceleration of a all the way to outer space, straight up. You are not sure what a is, but it is relative small (between 2 ft/s2 and 10 ft/s?). Ignore compressibility effects. The atmosphere follows a standard temperature and pressure profile (so you can compute the density ratio directly from 0). a. As a function of a, at what altitude will the rocket experience maximum dynamic pressure q? b. What is that pressure as a function of a? c. How does the answer vary with acceleration?

Answer 1

The abbreviation "Maximum dynamic pressure" is Max Q. It occurs when the rocket or spacecraft is under "maximum mechanical stress" during the launch.

Which simply means that the rocket is experiencing significant physical pressure as a result of traveling through the atmosphere's air at a very high speed. After the rocket has been launched for around 60 seconds and has reached an altitude of 11 km, Max Q occurs. Max Q for the Space Shuttle happens at a similar altitude, about. The maximum dynamic pressure, or Max Q, is reached when the dynamic pressure reaches its greatest level due to the increasing velocity.
