Physics question A spacecraft descends vertically near the surface of Planet X. An upward thrust of 25.0kN from its engines slow

s it down at a rate of 1.20 m/s^2, but if an upward thrust of only 10.0 kN is applied, it speeds up at rate of .80m/s^2.

 F=m*a and m is constant on any planet 
25000-m*g=m*1.2 
10000-m*g=-m*0.80 
m*g is the weight 
25000/1.2-m*g/1.2=m 
10000/0.80-m*g/0.80=-25000/1.2+m*g/1.2 solve for m*g 
m*g=(10000/0.80+25000/1.2)/ (1/1.2+1/0.80) 
16 kN

Please help!! I will give brainliest!
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Depends.

Explanation:

Whether the object is going left or right, the speed will stay the same until friction eventually stops it. <em>However, </em>if, for example, we're talking about an object going straight before veering right, then yes, speed <em>does</em> matter. An object will normally have to speed up or slow down momentarily when changing direction to keep itself sustained on the ground.

So, honestly? It really depends on what we're talking about!

Hope this helped!

The light at an intersection is red and a police officer directs you to go through the intersection. what should you do?
Alex777 [14]

Go through the intersection without stopping is the appropriate action to be taken in a case where the light at an intersection is red and a police officer directs you to go through it.

<h3>What is Traffic light?</h3>

This is also referred to as stoplights and is present in the intersection of roads etc so as to help control traffic and prevent the occurrences of accidents on the road.

In cases where there is no officer, the traffic light must be obeyed but where the officer is present then his authority overrules and must be obeyed as he is in the best position to know the reason why the traffic light should be ignored in this type of scenario.

This is therefore the reason why the individual should go through the intersection without stopping.
