<u>Yes. The speed of a rocket can exceed the exhaust speed of the fuel.</u>
How this is explained?
- The thrust of the rocket does not depend on the relative speed of the gases or the relative speed of the rocket.
- It depends on conservation of momentum.
What is conservation of momentum?
- Conservation of momentum, general law of physics according to which the quantity called momentum that characterizes motion never changes in an isolated collection of objects; that is, the total momentum of a system remains constant.
- Momentum is equal to the mass of an object multiplied by its velocity and is equivalent to the force required to bring the object to a stop in a unit length of time.
- For any array of several objects, the total momentum is the sum of the individual momenta.
- There is a peculiarity, however, in that momentum is a vector, involving both the direction and the magnitude of motion, so that the momenta of objects going in opposite directions can cancel to yield an overall sum of zero.

Answer:
A police radar gun uses X-band microwave radiation at a frequency of 13.1 GHz. Microwaves travel at the speed of light, or 3x108 m/s. Since the frequency shift will be small for practical car speeds and difficult to detect, the shifted frequency is compared to the original frequency, and the resulting beat frequency is used to determine the speed of the car.
a.) If Michael is traveling at 29 m/s, what is the resulting beat frequency that the radar gun detects?
ANSWER: 2533 Hz
Explanation:
The only real difference is that common seismic waves travel through the ground and sound waves travel through the air. If you had a pipe attached to granite and you were listening to it, you might detect both.
Answer
given,
time = 10 s
ship's speed = 5 Km/h
F = m a
a is the acceleration and m is mass.
In the first case
F₁=m x a₁
where a₁ = difference in velocity / time
F₁ is constant acceleration is also a constant.
Δv₁ = 5 x 0.278
Δv₁ = 1.39 m/s
a₁ = 0.139 m/s²
F₂ =m x a₂
F₃ = F₂ + F₁
Δv₃ = 19 x 0.278
Δv₃ = 5.282 m/s
a₃=Δv₂ / t
a₃ = 0.5282 m²/s
m a₃=m a₁ + m a₂
a₃ = a₂ + a₁
0.5282 = a₂ + 0.139
a₂=0.3892 m²/s
F₂ = m x 0.3892...........(1)
F₁ = m x 0.139...............(2)
F₂/F₁
ratio = 
ratio = 2.8
Explanation:
Joule (J) is the MKS unit of energy, equal to the force of one Newton acting through one meter.
