Answer:

When the rocket's engines are fired up, the force of gravity is disturbed, and the rocket takes off in the air. Later, as the rocket's fuel runs out, it slows down, comes to a halt, and eventually plummets to Earth's surface. Forces can affect objects in space as well. Spaceships are constantly in motion while traversing the solar system.

Answer:

Explanation:

The rocket works because of the law of conservation of linear momentum. The law of conservation of linear momentum is very important in physics. Momentum is defined as the mass of an object times its velocity.

Answer:

Q = 1.2*10⁻¹² C

Explanation:

For any capacitor, by definition the capacitance C is equal to the relationship between the charge on one of the conductors and the potential difference between them, as follows:

$C = \frac{Q}{V} (1)$

For the special case of a parallel plate capacitor, just by application of Gauss' law to a rectangular surface half out of the outer surface, and half inside it, it can be showed that the value of the capacitance C is a parameter defined only by geometric constants, as follows:

$C = \frac{\epsilon_{0}*\epsilon _{r} * A}{d} (2)$

So, due to the left sides in (1) and (2) are equal each other, right sides must be equal too.
Replacing ε₀, εr (dielectric constant), A, d and V by their values, we can solve for Q, as follows:

$Q =\frac{\epsilon_{0} * \epsilon_{r} *A* V}{d} = \frac{(8.85*(4.7)^{2}*79.5)e-24 (F/m*m2*V)}{1.3e-8m} = 1.2e-12 C = 1.2 pC (3)$

Which statement best describes an antacid? a)An antacid increases the amount of hydrogen ions b)An antacid neutralizes excess hy

Ainat [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A, An antacid neutralizes excess hydrogen ions.

Explanation:

Antacid neutralizes the acid in the stomach. These are bases/ alkali's. The reaction between an acid and a base in known as neutralization thereby reducing burning sensations produced by the acid.

The antacid when reaches the stomach form gel like composition that lie on the top of food item in the stomach and prevent the oesophagus from the irritation caused by the acid.

Answer:

Explanation:

1. What are the forces acting on the block when it is hanging freely from the spring scale? What is the net force on the block? What are the magnitudes of each of the forces acting on the block? Explain.

When a block is hanging freely, two forces are acting on it = tension force from the spring scale and gravity force on the block itself. The net force is zero as the block is not accelerating. The magnitudes of tension and gravity force are the same but in opposite directions.

2. What are the forces that act on the block when it is placed on the ramp and is held in place by the spring scale? What is the net force acting on the block? Explain. (Assume that the ramps are frictionless surfaces.)

There are three forces acting on the block when it is placed on the ramp and is held in place by the spring scale: as in 1, there are tension and gravity but there is a third force - reaction force from the ramp surface on the block that is perpendicular to the surface. Again the block is not moving so the net force is zero.

3. What is the magnitude of normal force acting on the block when it is resting on the flat surface? How does the normal force change as the angle of the ramp increases? Explain. (Assume that the ramps are frictionless surfaces.)

On flat surface, the normal force is equal to the gravity force of the block i.e. its weight. On a vertical surface, the normal force is equal to zero. For the angle of ramp, θ, the normal force = weight * cos θ.
