<span> the moon's gravitational force pulls on water in the oceans so that there are "bulges" in the ocean on both sides of the planet. The moon pulls water toward it, and this causes the bulge toward the moon. hope this helps (:</span>

A 7600 kg rocket blasts off vertically from the launch pad with a constant upward acceleration of 2.35 m/s2 and feels no appreci
ollegr [7]

Answer:

a) The rocket reaches a maximum height of 737.577 meters.

b) The rocket will come crashing down approximately 17.655 seconds after engine failure.

Explanation:

a) Let suppose that rocket accelerates uniformly in the two stages. First, rocket is accelerates due to engine and second, it is decelerated by gravity.

1st Stage - Engine

Given that initial velocity, acceleration and travelled distance are known, we determine final velocity (v), measured in meters per second, by using this kinematic equation:

v = \sqrt{v_{o}^{2} +2\cdot a\cdot \Delta s} (1)

Where:

a - Acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

\Delta s - Travelled distance, measured in meters.

v_{o} - Initial velocity, measured in meters per second.

If we know that v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, a = 2.35\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and \Delta s = 595\,m, the final velocity of the rocket is:

v = \sqrt{\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+2\cdot \left(2.35\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (595\,m)}

v\approx 52.882\,\frac{m}{s}

The time associated with this launch (t), measured in seconds, is:

t = \frac{v-v_{o}}{a}

t = \frac{52.882\,\frac{m}{s}-0\,\frac{m}{s}}{2.35\,\frac{m}{s} }

t = 22.503\,s

2nd Stage - Gravity

The rocket reaches its maximum height when final velocity is zero:

v^{2} = v_{o}^{2} + 2\cdot a\cdot (s-s_{o}) (2)

Where:

v_{o} - Initial speed, measured in meters per second.

v - Final speed, measured in meters per second.

a - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

s_{o} - Initial height, measured in meters.

s - Final height, measured in meters.

If we know that v_{o} = 52.882\,\frac{m}{s}, v = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, a = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and s_{o} = 595\,m, then the maximum height reached by the rocket is:

v^{2} -v_{o}^{2} = 2\cdot a\cdot (s-s_{o})

s-s_{o} = \frac{v^{2}-v_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot a}

s = s_{o} + \frac{v^{2}-v_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot a}

s = 595\,m + \frac{\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(52.882\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}

s = 737.577\,m

The rocket reaches a maximum height of 737.577 meters.

b) The time needed for the rocket to crash down to the launch pad is determined by the following kinematic equation:

s = s_{o} + v_{o}\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot a \cdot t^{2} (2)

Where:

s_{o} - Initial height, measured in meters.

s - Final height, measured in meters.

v_{o} - Initial speed, measured in meters per second.

a - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

t - Time, measured in seconds.

If we know that s_{o} = 595\,m, v_{o} = 52.882\,\frac{m}{s}, s = 0\,m and a = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, then the time needed by the rocket is:

0\,m = 595\,m + \left(52.882\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot t^{2}

-4.904\cdot t^{2}+52.882\cdot t +595 = 0

Then, we solve this polynomial by Quadratic Formula:

t_{1}\approx 17.655\,s, t_{2} \approx -6.872\,s

Only the first root is solution that is physically reasonable. Hence, the rocket will come crashing down approximately 17.655 seconds after engine failure.

A rock is lifted by a machine to a height of 10m. If it has a mass of 22 kilograms
zmey [24]

Answer:

2156J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of lift  = 10m

Mass  = 22kg

Unknown:

Work done by the machine  = ?

Solution:

Work done is the force applied to move a body through a certain distance.

So;

        Work done  = Force x distance

Here;

       Work done  = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

      Work done  = 22 x 9.8 x 10  = 2156J

“I know what the atomic number of this atom is, but I don’t know what the number of electrons is,” a friend says. How would you
liq [111]

Once the atomic number of an atom is known, the number of electrons can be deduced depending on if the atom is an ion or a neutral one.

<h3>Atomic number</h3>

The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom.

For atoms that are neutral, that is, no net charges, the number of protons is always equal to the number of electrons. In other words, the positive charges always balance the negative charges in neutral atoms.

Thus, if the atomic number of a neutral atom is 6, for example, the proton number will also be 6. Since the proton must balance the electron, the number of electrons will also be 6.
