Heat pumps are also known as refrigeration units for heating and cooling homes by taking heat from air outside in the winter time and then reversed to take heat out of the inside of a home in the summertime. The Geothermal heat pumps take heat from the ground by way of buried pipes deep in ground with chemicals such as water and glycol or similar and transfers that heat into homes in the winter time.

A rocket burns fuel to create hot gases that explode violently out of the rocket engine. This explosion creates thrust. Thrust i
Lerok [7]

Answer:

Thrust due to fuel consumption must overcome gravitational force from the Earth to send the rocket up into space.

Explanation:

From the concept of Escape Velocity, derived from Newton's Law of Gravitation, definition of Work, Work-Energy Theorem and Principle of Energy Conservation, which is the minimum speed such that rocket can overcome gravitational forces exerted by the Earth, and according to the Tsiolkovski's Rocket Equation, which states that thrust done by the rocket is equal to the change in linear momentum of the rocket itself, we conclude that thrust due to fuel consumption must overcome gravitational force from the Earth to send the rocket up into space.

A 6.3 g bullet leaves the muzzle of a rifle with a speed of 596.2 m/s. what constant force is exerted on the bullet while it is
ivanzaharov [21]
<span>anwser will be 

F = ma

where 

F = force exerted on the bullet 
m = mass of the bullet = 5 gm (given) = 0.005 kg. 
a = acceleration of the bullet 

Substituting appropriately, 

F = 0.005a --- call this Equation 1 

Next working equation is 

Vf^2 - Vo^2 = 2as 

where 

Vf = velocity of the bullet as it leaves the muzzle = 326 m/sec (given) 
Vo = initial velocity of bullet = 0 
a = acceleration of bullet 
s = length of the rifle's barrel 

Substituting appropriately, 

326^2 - 0 = 2(a)(0.83) 

a = 64,022 m/sec^2 

the anwser will be
Substituting this into Equation 1, 

F = 0.005(64,022) 

F =320.11 Newtons 

Hope this helps. </span><span>
