Two rockets are flying in the same direction and are side by side at the instant their retrorockets fire. Rocket A has an initia
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

-22.2 m/s²

Explanation:

The equation for position x for a constant acceleration a, time t and initial velocity v₀, initial position x₀:

(1) x=\frac{1}{2}at^2+v_0t+x_0

For rocket A the initial and final position: x = x₀= 0. Using these values in equation 1 gives:

(2) 0=\frac{1}{2}at^2+v_0t

Solving for time t:

-\frac{1}{2}at^2=v_0t

(3) t=-\frac{2v_0}{a}

The times for both rockets must be equal, since they start and end at the same location. Using equation 3 for rocket A and B gives:

(4) \frac{v_{0A}}{a_A}=\frac{v_{0B}}{a_B}

Solving equation 4 for acceleration of rocket B:

(5) a_B=a_A\frac{v_{0B}}{v_{0A}}

**Fill in the blanks**
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Word for the first blank: gravity

Word for the second blank: matter

Explanation:

The only way debris from the impact with Earth can be held close to Earth is due to a force. The only force that could be acting from Earth is "the force of gravity".

The gravitational pull of this new object being formed, increases proportional to its mass as more and more "matter" accumulates. And the accretion process is now on its way.
