Two spaceships that have different masses but rocket engines of identical force are at rest in space. if they fire their rockets

at the same time, which ship will speed up faster

Force is calculated F=m×a.
If both ships speed up with the same force, but have a different mass, This means that a also has to be different. If F is the same but ship a has a bigger mass(m) than ship b, then the acceleration(a) of ship b has to be bigger so F of each ship is the same. So the ship with the smaller mass will speed up faster.

What acceleration will you give to a 24.5 kg
Ludmilka [50]

Heya!!

For calculate aceleration, lets applicate second law of Newton:

                                                   \boxed{F=ma}

                                                 <u>Δ   Being   Δ</u>

                                             F = Force = 78,3 N

                                            m = Mass = 24,5 kg

                                             a = Aceleration = ?

⇒ Let's replace according the formula and clear "a":

\boxed{a=78,3\ N / 24,5\ kg}

⇒ Resolving

\boxed{a=3.19\ m/s^{2}}

Result:

The aceleration is <u>3,19 meters per second squared (m/s²)</u>

Good Luck!!

two skateboarders of mass 50 kg and 60 kg push each other with force 70N.what is the acceleration of each skaters.step by step.
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

f=ma

f=70N

m1=50kg

m2= 60kg

a1= f/m

a1= 70/50

a1= 1.4N/kg

a2= 70/60

a2=1.17N/kg

The Surface Pressure at Leh, Ladakh is 800 mb. Now, assuming that Leh is at an altitude of 3500 m and every 100 m increase in he
Basile [38]

We have that the sea level pressure for Leh area is 1150mb mathematically given as

Ps= 1150 mb

<h3> Sea level pressure</h3>

Question Parameters:

Ladakh is 800 mb.

<u>assuming </u>that Leh is at an altitude of 3500 m and every 100 m

increase in height with respect to sea level corresponds to 10 mb pressure,

Generally, for 3500m the pressure change will be 350 mb.

Therefore,  here for the sea level <em>pressure</em> we need to add,

Ps=800+350

Ps= 1150 mb

Ultrasonic images are obtained from the inside organs of our body. This process uses which property of sound wave?
Temka [501]

This question involves the concepts of echo, ultrasonic images, ultrasonic sound waves.

The process of ultrasonic images uses the "echo" property of the sound waves.

Echo is the property of the sound wave by the virtue of which the sound wave reflects back to the source of the sound after hitting a surface or an object.

Ultrasonic images are obtained from inside organs of our body. This process involves the use of ultrasonic sound waves that have a frequency greater than 20,000 Hz. These sound waves are out of the range of audible sound by the human ear. When these ultrasonic sound waves are sent in form of pulses into the human body by the use of probes, they reflect back from the tissues of different organs to the probe. The probe then records the reflection properties of these sound waves and displays them in form of an image, known as ultrasonic images.
