When an apple is cut (or bruised), oxygen is introduced into the injured plant tissue. When oxygen is present in cells, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) enzymes in the chloroplasts rapidly oxidize phenolic compounds naturally present in the apple tissues to o-quinones, colorless precursors to brown-colored secondary products. so it will be c

Answer:

a) $v = 312.791\,\frac{m}{s}$ , b) $a = 13.333\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Explanation:

The problem is asking the rocket velocity and acceleration at t = 6 s.

a) The general equation of the rocket is:

$v=v_{o} -v_{ex}\cdot \ln \frac{m}{m_{o}}$

$v = 230\,\frac{m}{s}-(1200\,\frac{m}{s} )\cdot \ln \frac{14000\,kg}{15000\,kg}$

$v = 312.791\,\frac{m}{s}$

b) The acceleration experimented by the rocket is:

$a = \frac{v_{ex}}{m_{o}}\cdot \frac{dm}{dt}$

$a = \frac{1200\,\frac{m}{s} }{15000\,kg}\cdot \frac{1000\,kg}{6\,s}$

$a = 13.333\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$
