Answer:

The weight will be 1/6 of whatever it is on Earth.

Explanation:

Remember F=ma

If the acceleration decreases by a factor of 6 while the mass stays constant, you can see the force (the weight) will also decrease by the same factor.

What is the magnitude of a vector with components (15 m, 8 m)?

il63 [147K]

The answer is 17 m because you have to add the 15 m and the 8 m together to get the answer so it will be like this 17x17 = 15x15 + 8x8 got it?

Explain the relationship between velocity and acceleration. Are these scalar or vector quantities?

stiv31 [10]

A scalar is something that only has speed without a DIRECTION while a vector has direction. acceleration is a vector and mass is a scalar.

A model rocket accelerates upward from the ground with a constant acceleration, reaching a height of 50 m in 8 s.What is the spe

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The value is $v = 12.5 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height is $h = 50 \ m$

The time taken is $t = 8 \ s$

From the equation of motion we have that

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2} * a * t^2$

Here u = 0 because the rocket started at rest

$50 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} * a * 8^2$

=> $a = \frac{100}{64}$

=> $a = 1.5625 \ m/s^2$

Also from the kinematic equation we have that

$v = u + at$

=> $v = 0 + (8 * 1.5625)$

=> $v = 12.5 \ m/s$
