The correct value for the rocket speed measured by an observer on earth would be = 14c

<h3>Calculation and of the rocket speed</h3>

To calculate the speed of the rocket we should observe that the rocket and the missile are in a relative motion which are moving on the same direction.

The speed of the rocket = 12c

The speed of the missile = 12c

The individual speed of earth =0c

But, the relative speed of the missile and the Earth is the sum of individual speeds.

Thus, the speed of rocket as measured by an observer on the Earth would be 0 + 14c = 14c.

Therefore, the correct value for the rocket speed measured by an observer on earth would be =14c

Why can gases and liquids both transmit heat by convection?
Firlakuza [10]
Basically, the temperature is a result of the average kinetic energy of all the atoms comprising the solid/liquid/gas. In solid, these atoms can just vibrate in place, leaving them to only be able to conduct and radiate heat. However, as you probably know liquids and solids take the shape of their container because the bonds between atoms are loose enough to allow them to freely move around. Due to each individual atom having its own energy, and these atoms being free to move about the liquid/gas they collide with other atoms in the substance. These collisions result in a transfer of energy. Finally, lower energy atoms "sink" and higher energy atoms "rise" thus creating a "convection current".

A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a building 100m high. The ball strikes the ground at a point 120 m horizontally aw
astraxan [27]

26.54 m/s  is the magnitude of its velocity just before it strikes the ground

h=100m,v=20m/s,g=9.8m/s

time it takes to reach the ground,

[t=\sqrt2h/g],[=\sqrt2*100/9.8=4.51s]

x= 120m

t= 4.52

v= x/t

v= 120/4.52

v= 26.54 m/s

The "speed at which an object changes its location" can be expressed using a vector number called velocity. Consider a person who moves swiftly while taking two steps forward and two steps back while remaining in one location. Velocity is a vector quantity. Therefore, velocity is cognizant of direction. The direction must be taken into account when determining an object's velocity. A speed of 55 mph is not enough information. The direction must be used to appropriately depict the item's velocity. Simply said, the direction of the velocity vector indicates the direction of motion of an object.
