A rocket accelerates by burning its onboard fuel, so its mass decreases with time. Suppose the initial mass of the rocket at lif

toff (including its fuel) is m, the fuel is consumed at rate r, and the exhaust gases are ejected with constant velocity ve (relative to the rocket). A model for the velocity of the rocket at time t is given by the equation:
v(t)=−gt−velnm−rtm

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity and t is not too large?If g=9.8m/s2, m=29,000kg, r=170kg/s, and ve=2,900m/s.

What would the height of the rocket be one minute after liftoff?

Answer:

Height of the rocket be one minute after liftoff is 40.1382 km.

Explanation:

$v(t)=-gt-v_e\times \ln \frac{m-rt}{m}$

v = velocity of rocket at time t

g = Acceleration due to gravity = $9.8 m/s^2$

$v_e$ = Constant velocity relative to the rocket = 2,900m/s.

m = Initial mass of the rocket at liftoff = 29000 kg

r = Rate at which fuel is consumed = 170 kg/s

Velocity of the rocket after 1 minute of the liftoff =v

t = 1 minute = 60 seconds'

Substituting all the given values in in the given equation:

$v(60)=-9.8 m/s^2\times 60 s-2,900m/s\times \ln (\frac{29,000 kg-170 kg/s\times 60 s}{2,9000 kg})$

$v(60) = 668.97 m/s$

Height of the rocket = h

$Velocity=\frac{Displacement}{time}$

$668.97 m/s=\frac{h}{60 s}$

$h=668.97 m/s\times 60 s=40,138.2 m = 40.1382 km$

Height of the rocket be one minute after liftoff is 40.1382 km.

If atmospheric pressure suddenly changes from 1.00 atm to 0.896 atm at 298 k, how much oxygen will be released from 3.30 l of wa

xxMikexx [17]

At a temperature of 298 K, the Henry's law constant is 0.00130 M/atm for oxygen. The solubility of oxygen in water 1.00 atm would be calculated as follows:

<span>S = (H) (Pgas) = 0.00130 M / atm x 0.21 atm = 0.000273 M
</span>
At 0.890 atm,
<span>S = (H)(Pgas) = 0.00130 M / atm x 0.1869 atm = 0.00024297 M</span>
<span>
If atmospheric pressure would suddenly change from 1.00 atm to 0.890 atm at the same temperature, the amount of oxygen that will be released from 3.30 L of water in an unsealed container would be as follows</span>
<span>
3.30 L x (0.000273 mol / L) = 0.0012012 mol</span>

3.30 L x (0.00024297 mol / L) = 0.001069068 mol

0.0012012 mol - 0.001069068 mol = 0.000132 mol

A body is traveling at 5.0 m/s along the positive direction of an x axis; no net force acts on the body. An internal explosion s

loris [4]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum and conservation of kinetic energy.

By definition kinetic energy is defined as

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Where,

m = Mass

v = Velocity

On the other hand we have the conservation of the moment, which for this case would be defined as

$m*V_i = m_1V_1+m_2V_2$

Here,

m = Total mass (8Kg at this case)

$m_1=m_2 =$ Mass each part

$V_i =$ Initial velocity

$V_2 =$ Final velocity particle 2

$V_1 =$ Final velocity particle 1

The initial kinetic energy would be given by,

$KE_i=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$KE_i = \frac{1}{2}8*5^2$

$KE_i = 100J$

In the end the energy increased 100J, that is,

$KE_f = KE_i KE_{increased}$

$KE_f = 100+100 = 200J$

By conservation of the moment then,

$m*V_i = m_1V_1+m_2V_2$

Replacing we have,

$(8)*5 = 4*V_1+4*V_2$

$40 = 4(V_1+V_2)$

$V_1+V_2 = 10$

$V_2 = 10-V_1$ (1)

In the final point the cinematic energy of EACH particle would be given by

$KE_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$KE_f = \frac{1}{2}4*(V_1^2+V_2^2)$

$200J=\frac{1}{2}4*(V_1^2+V_2^2)$ (2)

So we have a system of 2x2 equations

$V_2 = 10-V_1$

$200J=\frac{1}{2}4*(V_1^2+V_2^2)$

Replacing (1) in (2) and solving we have to,

200J=\frac{1}{2}4*(V_1^2+(10-V_1)^2)

PART A: $V_1 = 10m/s$

Then replacing in (1) we have that

PART B: $V_2 = 0m/s$

Which of the following statements indicates that the client is at risk for an electrical shock at home?

sashaice [31]

Answer:

“I had to cut off the third prong on the electrical plug so that it would fit in the extension cord.”

Explanation:

A good method to find the customer at greater risk of receiving an electric shock is to discard the options.

If we analyze the fourth option "I always make sure that I am standing in a dry area before operating electrical equipment.", we will see that the customer minimizes the risk of electric conduction through a fluid. This precaution also minimizes the risk of electric shock.

The third option "I always read the owner’s manual when I purchase a new electrical appliance." It tells us that the customer knows how to properly use the electrical equipment that manipulates and knows the do and do not of such devices, so the risk of electric shock is reduced.

In the second option, "My bread got stuck in my toaster this morning, and I unplugged it before trying to remove it." The customer made sure to interrupt the electric flow to the device before proceeding and try to remove the jammed bread. If there is no electric current, there will be no electric shock to the customer.

The first option "I had to cut off the third prong on the electrical plug so that it would fit in the extension cord." It tells us that the client altered the cord extension in an inappropriate manner, since the equipment is not designed to work with two prongs. Because the design conditions are not being met, it is possible that the equipment malfunctions and this malfunction could result in the customer receiving an electric shock.

I hope the explanation was clear for you. If you have any further question, I'll be happy to assist you. :D
