A rocket is fired straight up. It contains two stages (Stage 1 and Stage 2) of solid rocket fuel that are designed to burn for 1

0.0 and 5.00 s, respectively, with no time interval between them. In Stage 1, the rocket fuel provides an upward acceleration of 15.0 m/s2. In Stage 2, the acceleration is 10.0 m/s2. Neglecting air resistance, calculate the maximum altitude above the surface of Earth of the payload and the time required for it to return to the surface. Assume the acceleration due to gravity is constant.1) Calculate the maximum altitude.
2) Calculate time required to return to the surface (i.e. the total time of flight).

Cheese is made of cheese
nekit [7.7K]

Cheese is made of casein protein, which is originally made from milk and is high in protein. The texture of the cheese is determined by the quality of the milk, so cow's milk cheese differs from goat's milk cheese.

<h3>What is a dairy product?</h3>

Diary products are made from milk, such as cheese, curd, yogurt, etc., but all of them have different nutrients. The quality of these dairy products depend upon the quality of the milk, as some milking animals have a higher concentration of fats in their milk than other animals. These dairy products are used in different industrial sectors, such as for making ice cream, chocolate, and different food products.

Hence, cheese is made up of casein proteins that are present in the milk.

Why is pseudoscience bad?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

It is quite difficult to picture a pseudoscientist—really picture him or her over the course of a day, a year, or a whole career. What kind or research does he or she actually do, what differentiates him or her from a carpenter, or a historian, or a working scientist? In short, what do such people think they are up to?

… it is a significant point for reflection that all individuals who have been called “pseudoscientists” have considered themselves to be “scientists”, with no prefix.

The answer might surprise you. When they find time after the obligation of supporting themselves, they read papers in specific areas, propose theories, gather data, write articles, and, maybe, publish them. What they imagine they are doing is, in a word, “science”. They might be wrong about that—many of us hold incorrect judgments about the true nature of our activities—but surely it is a significant point for reflection that all individuals who have been called “pseudoscientists” have considered themselves to be “scientists”, with no prefix.

What is pseudoscience?

“Pseudoscience” is a bad category for analysis. It exists entirely as a negative attribution that scientists and non‐scientists hurl at others but never apply to themselves. Not only do they apply the term exclusively as a discrediting slur, they do so inconsistently. Over the past two‐and‐a‐quarter centuries since the term popped into the Western European languages, a great number of disparate doctrines have been categorized as sharing a core quality—pseudoscientificity, if you will—when in fact they do not. It is based on this diversity that I refer to such beliefs and theories as “fringe” rather than as “pseudo”: Their defining characteristic is the distance from the center of the mainstream scientific consensus in whichever direction, not some essential property they share.

Scholars have by and large tended to ignore fringe science as regrettable sideshows to the main narrative of the history of science, but there is a good deal to be learned by applying the same tools of analysis that have been used to understand mainstream science. This is not, I stress, to imply that there is no difference between hollow‐Earth theories and geophysics; on the contrary, the differences are the point of the analysis. Focusing on the historical and conceptual relationship between the fringe and the core of the various sciences as that blurry border has fluctuated over the centuries provides powerful analytical leverage for understanding where contemporary anti‐science movements come from and how mainstream scientists might address them.

As soon as professionalization blossomed, tagging competing theories as pseudoscientific became an important tool for scientists to define what they understood science to be

The central claim of this essay is that the concept of “pseudoscience” was called into being as the shadow of professional science. Before science became a profession—with formalized training, credentialing, publishing venues, careers—the category of pseudoscience did not exist. As soon as professionalization blossomed, tagging competing theories as pseudoscientific became an important tool for scientists to define what they understood science to be. In fact, despite many decades of strenuous effort by philosophers and historians, a precise definition of “science” remains elusive. It should be noted however that the absence of such definitional clarity has not seriously inhibited the ability of scientists to deepen our understanding of nature tremendously.

The height of a typical playground slide is about 1.8 m and it rises at an angle of 30 ∘ above the horizontal.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

5.94\ \text{m/s}

1.7

0.577

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

\theta = Angle of slope = 30^{\circ}

v = Velocity of child at the bottom of the slide

\mu_k = Coefficient of kinetic friction

\mu_s = Coefficient of static friction

h = Height of slope = 1.8 m

The energy balance of the system is given by

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gh}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 1.8}\\\Rightarrow v=5.94\ \text{m/s}

The speed of the child at the bottom of the slide is 5.94\ \text{m/s}

Length of the slide is given by

l=h\sin\theta\\\Rightarrow l=1.8\sin30^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow l=0.9\ \text{m}

v=\dfrac{1}{2}\times5.94\\\Rightarrow v=2.97\ \text{m/s}

The force energy balance of the system is given by

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+\mu_kmg\cos\theta l\\\Rightarrow \mu_k=\dfrac{gh-\dfrac{1}{2}v^2}{gl\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow \mu_k=\dfrac{9.81\times 1.8-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.97^2}{9.81\times 0.9\cos30^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow \mu_k=1.73

The coefficient of kinetic friction is 1.7.

For static friction

\mu_s\geq\tan30^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s\geq0.577

So, the minimum possible value for the coefficient of static friction is 0.577.

A volleyball is dropped from a cliff and a soccer ball is thrown upward from the same position. When each ball reaches the groun
vredina [299]
The question is whether the statement is true or false.

The answer if false.

Explanation:

It is exactly the opposite. The soccer ball will hit the ground with greater velocity.

Since the soccer ball is thrown upward, when it returns to the same heigth from which it was throwm it will have a velocity downward, which will make that the soocer ball reaches the ground at the bottom of the clif with greater velocity than the volleball.

The greater the velocity with which the soccer ball is thrown upward, the greater its velocity when reaches the same point from which it was thrown, and the greater the velocity with which it will hit the ground at the bottom of the clif.

Can anyone help?6th question.free brainliest answer...
DIA [1.3K]

There's a crest and a trough in each complete wave.  So the question is describing 10 complete waves.

After that, the question becomes somewhat murky.  It goes on to say "its time period is 0.2 seconds".  

-- The "time period" of a wave is usually defined as the time for <u><em>one</em></u> complete wave.  If that's what the phrase means, then ...

Frequency = ( 1/0.2sec )

<em>Frequency = 5 Hz.</em>

<em>= = = = = = = = = =</em>

<u>BUT</u> ... Is the question awkwardly trying to tell us that the <u><em>10 waves</em></u> take 0.2 seconds ?  If that's what it's saying, then ...

Frequency = (10) / (0.2 sec)

<em>Frequency = 50 Hz .</em>
