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

Answer:

16200 km/s

270 km/min

4.5 km/h

Explanation:

Acceleration Formula: Average Acceleration = Δv/Δt (change in velocity over change in time)

Simply plug in our known variables and solve:

a = (45.0 - 0)/10

a = 45.0/10

a = 4.5 km/h

Which of the following methods has led to the earliest discoveries of massive planets orbiting near their parent stars a. detect
Mrac [35]

Answer:

c. detecting the gravitational effect of an orbiting planet (The Wobble"") by looking for the Doppler shifts in the star's spectrum

Explanation:

In a solar system the mass of the star and planets affect each other's orbital  movements. The center of gravity of a star and a planet is inside the star. This causes the star to be closer and farther from the Earth at different times. Due to this wobble the star appears to be red shifted when it is farther and blue shifted when it is closer.

When the mass of the planet is high, like a hot Jupiter it causes more wobble i.e., change in radial velocity. This makes it easier to detect the planet. The earliest hot Jupiter found by this method is the planet 51 Pegasi b.

A bird flew 16 km west in 5 hours , then flew 20 km east in 6 hours . What was the birds velocity?
LenaWriter [7]
During that period of time, the bird's displacement was 4 km east. So its velocity was (4km east)/(11hrs). That's 0.36 km/hour east. (rounded)
