Gravity is pushing you down on the earth while the friction from the ground is pushing you up. Those are the two frictions you must overcome when walking.

Jason launches a model rocket with a mass of 2.0 kg from his spring-powered rocket launcher with a spring constant of 800 N/m. H

Arada [10]

Answer:

121 Joules

6.16717 m

Explanation:

m = Mass of the rocket = 2 kg

k = Spring constant = 800 N/m

x = Compression of spring = 0.55 m

Here, the kinetic energy of the spring and rocket will balance each other

$\frac{1}{2}mu^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{\frac{kx^2}{m}}\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{\frac{800\times 0.55^2}{2}}\\\Rightarrow u=11\ m/s$

The initial velocity of the rocket is 11 m/s = u.

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = g

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-11^2}{2\times -9.81}\\\Rightarrow s=6.16717\ m$

The maximum height of the rocket will be 6.16717 m

Potential energy is given by

$P=mgh\\\Rightarrow P=2\times 9.81\times \frac{0^2-11^2}{2\times -9.81}\\\Rightarrow P=121\ J$

The potential energy of the rocket at the maximum height will be 121 Joules

Question 9

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

F=ma

given solution

v=12m/s a=v/t

s=6 sec =12m/s÷6sec

=2m/s^2 then we get acceleration now we will find the mass. first derive the the formula of mass by crisis cross then you will get this formula which is m=F/a

=36÷2

= 18

If i am changing velocity, i must also have _______ and a net _________

Alinara [238K]

if i am changing velocity, i must also have acceleration and a net force

<h2>Newton's first law of motion</h2>

Newton's first law of motion states that if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.

According to Newton's first law of motion, without a force acting on an object, its velocity does not change. The net force acts on an object to change its velocity and cause acceleration.
