A girl pulls on a 10-kg wagon with a constant horizontal force of 30 N. If there are no other horizontal forces, what is the wag

on's acceleration in meters per second per second?

Force equals mass*distance
F = ma

Given m = 10 kg, F = 30 N

30 = 10a
30/10 = a
3 = a

The wagon's acceleration is 3 m/s^2

Explanation A 5000 kg rocket is at rest in deep space. The rocket burns fuel pushing 10kg of exhaust gases rearward at 4000 m/s.
katovenus [111]

Answer:

F = 4000 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of rocket (M)= 5000 Kg

10 Kg gas burns at speed (m)= 4000 m/s

time = 10 s

average force = ?

at the end the rocket is at rest

by conservation of momentum

 M v + m v' = 0

 5000 x v - 10 x 4000 = 0

 5000 v = 40000

    v = 8 m/s

speed of rocket = 8 m/s

now,

we know

change in momentum = F x Δ t

F = \dfrac{m(v_i-v_f)}{\Delta t}

F = \dfrac{5000(8-0)}{10}

      F = 4000 N

Hence, the average force applied to the rocket is equal to F = 4000 N

Is this statement true or false? The next generation of nuclear power plants being built in California and South Africa are even
alexira [117]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Modern safer and cheaper nuclear reactors can not only meet the range of our long term energy demands, they can also fight global warming.

Modern techniques provide ways to reduce radioactive waste amount. "A closed fuel cycle may be switched on for new kinds of nuclear plants. Alternatively, the waste is chemically dissuaded to transform the reusable element into fuel. This implies that nuclear waste would not be buried.

State two places where thermal conduction takes place.
Crank

Answer:

two places where thermal conduction takes place are gases and liquids, conduction is due to collisions of molecules during their random motion. Hence, the correct option is (C). Note: Though, the particle distances between gases are much more in comparison to solids and liquids, conduction slowly occurs in gases also
