A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward from rest with constant (net) acceleration 39.2 m/s^2. Th

e acceleration period lasts for time 10.0 ss until the fuel is exhausted. After that, the rocket is in free fall.
Required:

Answer:

9800 m

Explanation:

During acceleration, given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 39.2 m/s²

t = 10.0 s

Find: v and Δy

v = at + v₀

v = (39.2 m/s²) (10.0 s) + 0 m/s

v = 392 m/s

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (10.0 s) + ½ (39.2 m/s²) (10.0 s)²

Δy = 1960 m

During free fall, given:

v₀ = 392 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (392 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 7840 m

Therefore, h = 1960 m + 7840 m = 9800 m.

You are hiking in the mountains and find a shiny gold nugget. It might be the element gold, or it might be "fool's gold ," which
ra1l [238]

Answer:

The answer is: letter c, density.

Explanation:

Gold is a chemical element that is <em>very rare.</em> It has a high atomic number and is represented by the symbol "Au."

The problem above is asking about the physical property of gold that will help you determine whether a shiny gold nugget is, indeed, real gold. Remember that you are hiking and not anywhere else in the world.

If you look at choice a, appearance. This is definitely incorrect because looking at the object will not be able to help you verify whether it is true gold or "fool's gold." Considering melting point (letter b) would also be hard because you will be needing the necessary equipment to melt gold. Gold melts at 1,064 degrees Celsius. So,this sounds very impractical. (thus, melting point is incorrect) Now, if you look at letter d, physical state, it goes the same way with appearance. It will only tell you that the object is solid and that's it.

Letter c, density is the answer because if you analyze the density of gold, which is 19.32 grams per cubic meter, it is far from the density of iron pyrite (fool's gold) which is 4.8-5 grams per cubic meter. This means that gold is denser or heavier than iron pyrite. You will definitely be able to tell which such big gap in their densities.

VikaD [51]

Answer:

La Niña, because the jet stream is displaced northwards

Explanation:

La Nina is known to be a cool phase that affects the average ocean temperature. During this period the surface wind becomes stronger and there is lesser rainfall over the areas of the central tropical Pacific to which the Southern United States belongs.

Hence, when the southern United States experiences periodic occurrences of severe cold and drought conditions, the weather phenomenon most likely causes this and why is "La Niña, because the jet stream is displaced northwards."

Calculate the Kinetic energy of an object with a mass of 15kg while sitting on a shelf that is 20m high.
SOVA2 [1]

Kinetic energy is energy of motion. If the object is sitting still, then it has no kinetic energy. It doesn't matter what its mass is, or how high the shelf is.

KE = 0
