a rocket initially at rest on the ground lifts off vertically with a constant acceleration of 2.0 x 10^1 meters per second^2. Ho
xenn [34]

Here's the formula for the distance covered by an accelerating body in some amount of time ' T '. This formula is incredibly simple but incredibly useful. It pops up so often in Physics that you really should memorize it:

D = 1/2 a T²

Distance = (1/2)·(acceleration)·(time²)

This question gives us the acceleration and the distance, and we want to find the time.

(9,000 m) = (1/2) (20 m/s²) (time²)

(9,000 m) = (10 m/s²) (time²)

Divide each side by 10 m/s²:

(9,000 m) / (10 m/s²) = (time²)

900 s² = time²

Square root each side:

<em>T = 30 seconds</em>

Presence of _______- in retina gives us night vision that is help us to see in dim light.Required to answer. Single choice. Imme
qwelly [4]

Answer: Rods

Explanation:

The rod cells in the retina are the reason we are able to see at night and in dim light. They exist on the edges of the retina which is why they are also very useful for the peripheral vision of a human.

Rod cells number over 90 million in the eyes and although very useful for seeing in dimmer light, they are not very useful for color vision which is why humans see less colors in the dark.

The drag force pushes opposite your motion as you ride a bicycle. If you double your speed, what happens to the drag force?
timurjin [86]

Answer: The drag force goes up by a factor of 4

Explanation:

The <u>Drag Force</u> equation is:

F_{D}=\frac{1}{2}C_{D}\rho A_{D}V^{2} (1)

Where:

F_{D} is the Drag Force

C_{D} is the Drag coefficient, which depends on the material

\rho is the density of the fluid where the bicycle is moving (<u>air in this case) </u>

A_{D} is the transversal area of the body or object

V the bicycle's velocity

Now, if we assume C_{D}, \rho and A_{D} do not change, we can rewrite (1) as:

F_{D}=C.V^{2} (2)

Where C groups all these coefficients.

So, if we have a new velocity V_{n} , which is the double of the former velocity:

V_{n}=2V (3)

Equation (2) is written as:

F_{D}=C.V_{n}^{2}=C.(2V)^{2}

F_{D}=4CV^{2} (4)

Comparing (2) and (4) we can conclude<u> the Drag force is four times greater when the speed is doubled.</u>
