6 0

Answer:

A. Speed is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity.

Explanation:

A scalar quantity is one that consists of only a numerical value.

Speed is a scalar quantity because only the instantaneous value is indicated, for example the speedometer of a car that tells you your speed at the moment but not where you are going or in what direction are you going.

On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity. Because it is composed of a <u>magnitude and a direction</u>, for example 10m/s to the south is a velocity, and 10m/s is a speed.

Rocket thrust equation
= ( mass flow rate of fuel burnt ) X (Velocity of gas ejected ) + ( Exit Pressure - Outdoor Pressure ) X ( Area of exhaust )

In this case, we can assume the exit pressure = outdoor pressure and since area of exhaust is not given, it can be assumed to be negligible.

In this case, by Newton 3rd’s law,

Force exerted by gas on rocket
= Force exerted by rocket on gas
= (10kg/s) X (5 x 10^3 m/s)
= 5 x 10^4 N
