Two rocket ships named Alpha and Beta are at rest in space. Alpha fires its engines, and accelerates because of the thrust (or f

orce) that its engines exert on it. Beta has twice the mass of Alpha and its engines exert twice the thrust. If Beta fires its engines, it will experience _________.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Beta rocket has twice the mass of Alpha engine

suppose alpha has a mass of m so beta has 2 m mass

Thrust force on alpha is F

thrust force on beta is 2 F

Acceleration of alpha   a_{alpha}=\frac{F}{m}

Acceleration of beat   a_{beta}=\frac{2F}{2m}=\frac{F}{m}

Therefore acceleration of alpha and beta is same

A uniform beam XY is 100 cm long and weighs 4.0N.The beam rests on a pivot 60 cm from end X. A load of 8.0 N hangs from the beam
Neko [114]

Answer:

C. 22N

Explanation: Note that we are considering a uniform beam XY which implies that it will be evenly divided. That is the weight will be in between.

One of the laws of equilibrium states that the sum forces across the clockwise moment = sum of forces across the anticlockwise moment

Hence from the diagram we have

(8×50)+(4×10) = 20 × X

400+40 = 20X

440 = 20X

X = 440/20

X = 22N

Hence the answer is option C which is 22N

In an inelastic collision, a steel ball of mass 200 g was hit hard into a large ball of dough of mass 700 g. The velocity of the
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Velocity after collision will be 5.56 m/sec

So option (a) will be correct answer

Explanation:

Mass of steel ball m_1=200gram=0.2kg

Speed of steel ball before collision v_1=25m/sec

Mass of large ball m_2=700gram=0.7kg

Velocity of large ball v_2=0m/sec

According to conservation of momentum

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v

0.2\times 25+0.7\times 0=(0.7+0.2)v

v=5.56m/sec

So velocity after collision will be 5.56 m/sec

So option (a) will be correct answer

The magnitude of the electric current is inversely proportional to the _____ of the circuits in R2D2.
alisha [4.7K]
All you need to know for this question is Ohm’s Law:

V=IR
I=V/R
R=V/I

So, the answer is (3) Resistance, since it is inversely proportional to Current (I=V/R)

Describe the dynamic equilibrium that exists between the two water tanks at right.
Fudgin [204]

Concept: Dynamic Equilibrium: At dynamic equilibrium, the rate of reactants and the rate of products are almost equal. This means the reactants are converted into products and products are converted to reactants at an equal and constant rate. The equilibrium always tells the state of equal, opposite rates, not equal concentrations. So, it will seem like nothing is happening. Dynamic equilibrium can only happen in a closed system at a constant temperature.

Explanation: As per Le Chatelier's Principle, when we open the nozzle of the right tank, the amount of water in the right tank decreases because both the tanks are connected by a pipe. To counter this change water flows in from the left tank so the dynamic equilibrium will be established.
