Two rockets are flying in the same direction and are side by side at the instant their retrorockets fire. Rocket A has an initia

l velicity of +5800m/s, while Rocket B has an initial velocity of +8600m/s. After a time t both rockets are again side by side, the displacement of each being zero. The acceleration of rocket A is -15m/s^2. What is the acceleration of rocket B?

Answer:

-22.2 m/s²

Explanation:

The equation for position x for a constant acceleration a, time t and initial velocity v₀, initial position x₀:

(1) x=\frac{1}{2}at^2+v_0t+x_0

For rocket A the initial and final position: x = x₀= 0. Using these values in equation 1 gives:

(2) 0=\frac{1}{2}at^2+v_0t

Solving for time t:

-\frac{1}{2}at^2=v_0t

(3) t=-\frac{2v_0}{a}

The times for both rockets must be equal, since they start and end at the same location. Using equation 3 for rocket A and B gives:

(4) \frac{v_{0A}}{a_A}=\frac{v_{0B}}{a_B}

Solving equation 4 for acceleration of rocket B:

(5) a_B=a_A\frac{v_{0B}}{v_{0A}}

What is the relationship between air pressure and air temperature?
LenKa [72]
The relationship between the two is that air temperature changes the air pressure. For example, as the air warms up the molecules in the air become more active and they use up more individual space even though there is the same<span> number of molecules. This causes an </span>increase<span> in the air pressure.</span>

Hai vận động viên chạy trên cùng 1 đoạn đường, vận động
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Pemain A

Explanation:

Mengingat data berikut;

Kecepatan pemain A = 12 m/s

Kecepatan pemain B = 36 km/h

Untuk menentukan siapa pelari tercepat di antara dua pemain;

Pertama-tama, kita harus mengubah kecepatan menjadi satuan standar pengukuran yang sama.

Jadi, mari kita gunakan pengukuran umum meter per detik.

Konversi:

36 km/h = (36 * 1000)/(60 * 60)

36 km/h = 36000/3600

36 km/h = 10 m/s

Kecepatan pemain B = 10 m/s

Oleh karena itu, dibandingkan dengan kecepatan pemain A; pemain A lebih cepat.

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

To convert gram / centimeter³ to kg / m³

gram / centimeter³

= 10⁻³ kg / centimeter³

= 10⁻³  / (10⁻²)³ kg / m³

= 10⁻³ / 10⁻⁶ kg / m³

= 10⁻³⁺⁶ kg / m³

= 10³ kg / m³

So we shall have to multiply be 10³ with amount in gm / cm³ to convert it into kg/m³

2.33 gram / cm³

= 2.33 x 10³ kg / m³ .

Which of the following statements is TRUE in regards to Signal #2?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

2) Signal #2 is a digital signal that transmits signals in segments/intervals.

Explanation:

Signals are form of information propagating from the source to a display unit for appropriate interpretation. It can be either in a digital or analogue form.

A digital signal is a definite signal which is discrete in time and amplitude. It is mostly in the form of codes obtained from set of values. Graphically it transmits in the form of 1 and 0, showing a point of maximum amplitude (1) and minimum amplitude (0).

Analog signal is continuous signal describing the variation of two variables with respect to time.
