There are warnings about using your cell phone while pumping gas because cell phone batteries can explode.

<h3>What is pumping gas?</h3>

When the vehicle is not having enough fuel to drive more miles, it needs to be fueled by petrol, diesel or natural gas. This is called pumping gas.

According to the rules of National Fire Protection Association, No one is allowed to use any type of electronic items while pumping gas. So, the cell phone is not allowed.

Phones develop static charge. It is believed that cell phone batteries can explode while pumping gas. It would be a real danger.

Thus, there are warnings about using your cell phone while pumping gas because cell phone batteries can explode.

The moon Umbriel orbits Uranus (mass = 8.68 x 10^25 kg) at a distance of 2.66 x 10^8 m. What is Umbriel's orbital period (in hou
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

T = 99.51 hour

Explanation:

Mass of Uranus, M=8.68\times 10^{25}\ kg

The moon Umbriel orbits Uranus at a distance of 2.66\times 10^8\ m

We need to find Umbriel's orbital period. Let it is T. Using Kepler's third law of motion to find it.

T^2\propto r^3\\\\T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2r^3}{GM}\\\\T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times (2.66\times 10^8)^3}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 8.68\times 10^{25}}\\\\T=358244.51\ s

As 1 hour = 3600 s

358244.51 s = 99.51 hour

Hence, Umbriel's orbital period is 99.51 hour.

A space rocket is launched and accelerates uniformly to 160 m/s in 4.5 s. Calculate the acceleration of the rocket.​
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

<h2>35.56 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{v}{t}  \\

v is the velocity

t is the time

From the question we have

a =  \frac{160}{4.5}  = 35.55555...

We have the final answer as

<h3>35.56 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 4 m/s to 13 m/s in a period of 3 s. What is your acceleration?
iogann1982 [59]

The acceleration formula goes like this: a= (vf-vi)/t so it would be (13-4)/3 Thus the answer is 3m/s^2
