The momentum increases by a factor of 2
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by rewriting the momentum of the rocket in terms of the kinetic energy and the mass.
The kinetic energy of the rocket is:
(1)
where
m is the mass
v is the velocity
The momentum of the rocket is
(2)
From eq.(1) we get
and substituting into (2),
Now in this problem we have:
- The kinetic energy of the rocket is increased by a factor 8:
- The mass is reduced by half:
Substituting, we find the new momentum:
So, the momentum increases by a factor of 2.

Answer:
7500 m
Explanation:
The radar emits an electromagnetic wave that travels towards the object and then it is reflected back to the radar.
We can call L the distance between the radar and the object; this means that the electromagnetic wave travels twice this distance, so
d = 2L
In a time of
Electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum at the speed of light, which is equal to
Since the electromagnetic wave travels with constant speed, we can use the equation for uniform motion ,so:
(1)
where
, where L is the distance between the radar and the object
Re-arranging eq(1) and substituting, we find L:
