<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.

'Displacement' is the distance and direction between the starting point and
ending point, regardless of the path followed to get there.
A particle that's executing simple harmonic motion is always in the same place
where it was one time period ago, and where it will be later after another time
period has passed.
So its displacement during exactly one time period is exactly zero.
Density = 7.36 grams ÷ (2 cm × 2 cm × 2cm) = 0.92 g/cm^3
The relation between the angle of incidence and the angle of refraction is known as Snell's Law. Since the light travels with different speed in different media, the direction of the ray of light will change when it crosses the boundary between the two media
- Kinetic Energy of an object is the measure of the work an object can do by virtue of its motions..
- Where KE is the kinetic energy, m is the body’s mass, and v is the body’s velocity.
- Potential energy is the stored energy in any object or system by virtue of its position or arrangement of parts..
Where,
. m is the mass in kilograms
. g is the acceleration due to gravity
. h is the height in meters
