Model rocket engines are rated by the impulse that they deliver when they fire. A particular engine is rated to deliver an impul

se of 3.5 kg⋅m/s. The engine powers a 120g rocket, including the mass of the engine. Part A What is the final speed of the rocket once the engine has fired? (Ignore the change in mass as the engine fires and ignore the weight force during the short duration of the engine firing.)

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

   J = 3.5 kg-m/s,    m = 120 g = 0.120 kg      (as 1 g = 0.001 kg)

It is known that formula to calculate impulse is as follows.

        J = m(v_{2} - v_{1})

          0.120(v_{2} - v_{1}) = 3.5

      v_2 - v_1 = 29 m/s

So, v_{2} = 29 + v_{1}

                = 29 + 0 = 29 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that final speed (v_{2}) is 29 m/s.

Answer:

The final speed of the rocket once the engine has fired is 29.16 m/s.

Explanation:

By the principle of momentum and amount of movement, we match the momentum data to the amount of movement and find the value of speed.

I=3.5 kg*m/s

m=120g= 0.12kg

V=?

I=F*t

F*t=m*V

I/m=V

(3.5 kg*m/s) / 0.12kg = V

V=29.16 m/s

For a plane mirror,how is the object s related to the distance s?
dlinn [17]
Light is a very complex phenomenon, but in many situations its behavior can be understood with a simple model based on rays and wave fronts. A ray is a thin beam of light that travels in a straight line. A wave front is the line (not necessarily straight) or surface connecting all the light that left a source at the same time. For a source like the Sun, rays radiate out in all directions; the wave fronts are spheres centered on the Sun. If the source is a long way away, the wave fronts can be treated as parallel lines.

Rays and wave fronts can generally be used to represent light when the light is interacting with objects that are much larger than the wavelength of light, which is about 500 nm. In particular, we'll use rays and wave fronts to analyze how light interacts with mirrors and lenses.

If you make multiple measurements of your height, you are likely to find that the results vary by nearly half an inch in either
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Height h= 1.7 m

Explanation:

Supposing we have to find height in meter.

1 feet = 0.3048 m

1 inch = 0.0254 m

Given that:

5 feet

= 5×0.3048

= 1.524 m

and 7 inch = 7×0.0254= 0.1778 m

Therefore total height of a man in meter

5 feet 7 inch = 1.5424+0.1778 =1.7 m

Height h= 1.7 m

A racecar is equipped with a computer that records the reading on its speedometer every second during a race. If you graph this
Westkost [7]
Since the device is a speedometer, the data it read is the speed of the racecar. Data recording involving time usually uses time as the independent variable. It was also said in the problem that it records the speed every second which shows that the time interval is constant. This means that only other data, the car's speed, is the dependent variable.
