The net force on the rocket is  846400 N.

Answer:

Explanation:

It is known that weight is the influence of gravitational force acting on any mass of the object. So in the present case, the weighing force given is equal to the gravitational force acting on the rocket. Thus, the gravitational force will be acting towards downward direction. But an upward force is required by the rocket for thrusting purpose and that force is given as upward force. So the net force acting on the rocket is the vector addition of all the forces acting on the rocket. As in this case, only upward and downward force is acting on the rocket. The vector addition will be equal to subtraction of downward acting gravitational force from upward force or force provided by engine.

Net force = Engine force - Gravitational force = 890000-43600=846400 N

So the net force acting on the rocket is 846400 N.

A battery powers a circuit for a small noisy fan. The fan’s motor gets warm as it turns. What energy transformations are taking
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The battery is an electric energy source, which is being used to power a motor. The motor turns this electricity into kinetic energy as it spins the fan, creates heat from friction, and creates noise as stated by the problem.

Which of the following is not a way that astronomers can find how much dark matter there is in cluster of galaxies?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

<em>b. Observe the radio waves coming from all dark matter; from the strength of the radio waves from each cluster, estimate the amount of dark matter needed to produce them.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The universe is thought to be made up of 85% dark matters. <em>Dark matter is called dark because it does not appear to interact with the electromagnetic field, which means it doesn't absorb, reflect or emit electromagnetic radiation, and is therefore difficult to detect. This means that option b is wrong since radio wave is an electromagnetic wave</em>. Dark matter is a form of matter that makes up  about a quarter of the total mass–energy density of the universe. Dark matter was theorized due a variety of astrophysical observations and gravitational effects that cannot be explained by accepted theories of gravity unless there were more matter in the universe than can be seen.

A block on a horizontal frictionless plane is attached to a spring, as shown below. The block oscillates along the x-axis with s
AleksandrR [38]

The question is about unclear since no picture provided. But from the question, it could be guessed that the box is moving back and forth on the frictionless plane at the amplitude of A in simple harmonic motion.

Answer:

D. At x=0, it's acceleration is at a maximum

Explanation:

As the box move forward, it reaches point A and than move backward. Theoretically, the box will move backwards, through its origin, to point -A and then going forward.

Point A is the maximum displacement of the box in this case. At this point, the box instantaneously stop to go backward. Therefore the velocity at that moment is zero.

From point -A, the box travel forward and keep building up speed due to the release in potential energy of the spring. And at point x=0, the velocity become maximum. After point x=0, the velocity of the box slows down due to the conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy of the spring. And as it reaches point A, it reaches zero velocity.

The same can be said as the box travels backward from point A to -A

A cyclist accelerates from a velocity of 10 miles/hour east until reaching a velocity of 20 miles/hour east in 5 seconds. What w
Sliva [168]

Answer:

a = 0.894\ m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Motion with Constant Acceleration</u>

A body moves with constant acceleration when the speed changes uniformly in time. The equation used to find the final speed vf is

v_f=v_o+at

Where vo is the initial speed, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.

The cyclist has an initial speed of vo=10 miles/hour and ends up at vf=20 miles/hour in t=5 seconds.

Both speeds are given in miles/hour and we must convert it to m/s:

1 mile/hour = 0.44704 m/s

10 mile/hour = 4.47 m/s

20 mile/hour = 8.94 m/s

The acceleration is calculated by solving for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

\displaystyle a=\frac{8.94-4.47}{5}

a = 0.894\ m/s^2
