A rocket is moving away from the solar system at a speed of 7.5 ✕ 103 m/s. It fires its engine, which ejects exhaust with a spee

d of 5.0 ✕ 103 m/s relative to the rocket. The mass of the rocket at this time is 6.0 ✕ 104 kg, and its acceleration is 4.0 m/s2. What is the velocity of the exhaust relative to the solar system? (B) At what rate was the exhaust ejected during the firing?

Answer:

a.2.5x 10^3 m/s

b.mr=48kg/s

Explanation:

A rocket is moving away from the solar system at a speed of 7.5 ✕ 103 m/s. It fires its engine, which ejects exhaust with a speed of 5.0 ✕ 103 m/s relative to the rocket. The mass of the rocket at this time is 6.0 ✕ 104 kg, and its acceleration is 4.0 m/s2. What is the velocity of the exhaust relative to the solar system? (B) At what rate was the exhaust ejected during the firing?

velocity of the exhaust relative to the solar system

velocity of the rocket -velocity of the exhaust relative to the rocket.

7.5 ✕ 103 m/s-5.0 ✕ 103 m/s

2.5x 10^3 m/s

. b  we will look for the thrust of the rocket

T=ma

T=6.0 ✕ 104 kg*4.0 m/s2

T=2.4*10^5N

f=mass rate *velocity of the exhaust

T=2.4*10^5N=mr*5.0 ✕ 10^3 m/s

mr=2.4*10^5N/5.0 ✕ 10^3

mr=48kg/s

What is the kinetic energy of a an 80kg football player running at 8 m/s?
Ugo [173]
In the question it is already given that the football player is 80 kg.
Then the mass of the football player = 80 kg
Velocity at which the football player is running = 8 m/s
<span>Kinetic Energy = 0.5 • mass • square of velocity
Now we have to put the known data in this equation to find the actual velocity of the footballer.
</span> <span></span>So
Kinetic Energy of the footballer = 0.5 * 80 * (8 * 8)
                                                 = 0.5 * 80 * 64
                                                 = 2560
So the Kinetic energy of the footballer is 2560 joules

A student adds two vectors of magnitudes 48 m and 22 m. What are the maximum and minimum possible values for the resultant of th
Julli [10]

Answer:

<em>Maximum=70 m</em>

<em>Minimum=26 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Vector Addition </u>

Since vectors have magnitude and direction, adding them takes into consideration not only the magnitudes but also their respective directions. Two vectors can be totally collaborative, i.e., point to the same direction, or be totally opposite. In the first case, the magnitude of the sum is at maximum. Otherwise, it's at a minimum.

Thus, the maximum magnitude of the sum is 48+22 = 70 m and the minimum magnitude of the sum is 48-22= 26 m

How can you prove the mechanical nature of sound by a simple experiment
Kruka [31]

Answer:

That is, mechanical waves cannot travel through a vacuum. This feature of mechanical waves is often demonstrated in a Physics class. A ringing bell is placed in a jar and air inside the jar is evacuated. Once air is removed from the jar, the sound of the ringing bell can no longer be heard.
