Vectors are used to represent physical magnitudes that have an associated address. For example, if we want to represent the displacement of an object, it is not enough to describe only the distance as 10 meters, it is also necessary to describe in which direction the displacement occurred, for example, 30 ° towards the northeast.

Therefore the vectors are measured in one or several dimensions that include a magnitude and an address.

The correct option is the last:

"<em>a measurement in more than one dimension that includes a magnitude and a direction</em>"

A bicycle has a momentum of 23.4

Snowcat [4.5K]

Momentum=23.4kgm/s
Velocity=2m/s

$\\ \rm\longmapsto Momentum=Mass\times velocity$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto Mass=\dfrac{Momentum}{Velocity}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto Mass=\dfrac{23.4}{2}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto Mass=11.7kg$

A rocket in deep space has an empty mass of 150 kg and exhausts the hot gases of burned fuel at 2500 m/s. It is loaded with 600

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

$v(10\,s) \approx 775.387\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v(20\,s)\approx 1905.350\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v(30\,s) \approx 4023.595\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The speed of the rocket is given the Tsiolkovsky's differential equation, whose solution is:

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

Where:

$v_{o}$ - Initial speed of the rocket, in m/s.

$v_{ex}$ - Exhaust gas speed, in m/s.

$m_{o}$ - Initial total mass of the rocket, in kg.

$m$ - Current total mass of the rocket, in kg.

Let assume that fuel is burned linearly. So that,

$m(t) = m_{o} + r\cdot t$

The initial total mass of the rocket is:

$m_{o} = 750\,kg$

The fuel consumption rate is:

$r = -\frac{600\,kg}{30\,s}$

$r = -20\,\frac{kg}{s}$

The function for the current total mass of the rocket is:

$m(t) = 750\,kg - (20\,\frac{kg}{s} )\cdot t$

The speed function of the rocket is:

$v(t) = - 2500\,\frac{m}{s}\cdot \ln \frac{750\,kg -(20\,\frac{kg}{s} )\cdot t}{750\,kg}$

The speed of the rocket at given instants are:

$v(10\,s) \approx 775.387\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v(20\,s)\approx 1905.350\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v(30\,s) \approx 4023.595\,\frac{m}{s}$
