You said "<span>A rocket's acceleration is 6.0 m/s2.".

That just means that its speed increases by 6 m/s every second.
Whenever you look at it, its speed is 6 m/s faster than it was
one second earlier.

If it starts out with zero speed, then its speed is 6 m/s after 1 second,
12 m/s after 2 seconds, 18 m/s after 3 seconds . . . etc.

How long does it take to reach 42 m/s ?

Well, how many times does it have to go 6 m/s FASTER 
in order to build up to 42 m/s ?

That's just (42/6) = 7 times.

Writing it correctly, with the units and everything, it looks like this:


(42 m/s) / (6 m/s</span>²)

= (42/6)  (m/s) / (m/s²)

= (42/6)  (m/s · s²/m)

=  7 seconds

stiks02 [169]
D = 110 m,  t = 5 s
v o = 110 cs : 5 m = 22 m/s
-------------------------------------
v = v o - a t
v = 0 m/s,  v o =  22 m/s,  t = 4 s
0 = 22 - 4 a
4 a = 22
a = 22 : 4
a = 5.5 m/s²
g = 9.80 m/s²
9.80 : 5.5 = 0.56 
Answer:
The magnitude of its acceleration is 5.5 m/s or 0.56 g.

The vertical displacement of the wave is measured from the ?
sergey [27]
The whole question is talking about the amplitude of a wave
that's transverse and wiggling vertically.

Equilibrium to the crest . . . that's the amplitude.

Crest to trough . . . that's double the amplitude.

Trough to trough . . . How did that get in here ?  Yes, that's
                               the wavelength, but it has nothing to do
                               with vertical displacement.

Frequency . . . that's how many complete waves pass a mark
                       on the ground every second.  Doesn't belong here.

Notice that this has to be a transverse wave.  If it's a longitudinal wave,
like sound or a slinky, then it may not have any displacement at all
across the direction it's moving.

It also has to be a vertically 'polarized' wave.  If it's wiggling across
the direction it's traveling BUT it's wiggling side-to-side, then it has
no vertical displacement.  It still has an amplitude, but the amplitude
is all horizontal.

A permanent magnet is pushed into a wire, left there for a while, and then pulled out. During which time does a current run thou
lakkis [162]

Answer:

C. while the magnet is moving

Explanation:

Electromagnetic induction implies the production of electric current by mere movement of a magnet with respect to a coil or wire.

In the given question, current would be induced in the wire only when the magnet moves. That is either when the magnet is pushed into a wire, or when pulled out. But no current would flow through the wire when the magnet is left there for a while.

The current is induced because of the motion involved. Thus, the appropriate option is C.
