Galileo discovered that objects that are more dense, or have more mass, fall at a faster rate than less dense objects, due to this air resistance. A feather and brick dropped together. Air resistance causes the feather to fall more slowly.

alukav5142 [94]
As this happens over twelve seconds, you would take the total difference in velocities and divide it by twelve to find the change per second

44.0 m/s - 2.0 m/s = 42.0 m/s 

42.0 m/s / 12 s = 3.5 m/s2

the acceleration of the rock would be 3.5 m/s2

An object has a height of 0.066 m and is held 0.210 m in front of a converging lens with a focal length of 0.140 m. (Include the
Anvisha [2.4K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Size of object, h = 0.066 m

Object distance from the lens, u = 0.210 m (negative)

Focal length of the converging lens, f = 0.14 m

If v is the image distance from the lens, we can find it using lens formula as follows :

\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}+\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{0.14 }+\dfrac{1}{(-0.21)}\\\\v=0.42\ m

(a) Magnification,

m=\dfrac{v}{u}\\\\m=\dfrac{0.42}{(-0.21)}\\\\m=-2

(b) Magnification, m=\dfrac{h'}{h}

h' is image height

-2=\dfrac{h'}{0.066}\\\\h'=-2\times 0.066\\\\h'=-0.132\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

A 1000 kg rocket carrying 25 kg of fuel and oxygen rises at a velocity of 305 m/s. If all the mass of fuel and oxygen is burned
Thepotemich [5.8K]

If all the mass of fuel and oxygen is burned to form gases of combustion, the downward velocity of these gases would be 12,505 m/s.

<h3>Conservation of linear momentum</h3>

The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that, the total momentum of an isolated system is constant.

The downward velocity of thes gases is calculated as follows;

v1(m1 + m2) = v2(m2)

305(1000 + 25) = v2(25)

312,625 = 25v2

v2 = 312,625/25

v2 = 12,505 m/s

Thus, If all the mass of fuel and oxygen is burned to form gases of combustion, the downward velocity of these gases would be 12,505 m/s.
