A C-130 is 40,000 kg cargo/transport plane. To land, it has a minimum landing speed of 35 m/s and requires 430 m of stopping distance. A plan is put forward to use the C-130 as an emergency rescue plane, but doing so requires the stopping distance be reduced to 110 m. To achieve this distance, 30 rockets are attached to the front of the plane and fired immediately as the wheels touch the ground. Determine the impulse provided by a single rocket to reduce the stopping distance from 430 m to 110 m. You may assume a friction factor of 0.4 and that friction is the sole source of the deceleration over the stopping distance. 35 m/s Rockets Fire 110 m
