5 0

Answer:

40 ms¯².

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we shall illustrate the question with a diagram.

The attached photo gives a better understanding of the question.

From the attached photo:

Velocity (v) = 160 ms¯¹

Time (t) = 4 secs.

Acceleration (a) =?

Acceleration (a) = Velocity (v) /time (t)

a = v/t

a = 160/4

a = 40 ms¯²

Therefore, the initial acceleration of the rocket is 40 ms¯².

What is the major difference between the natural frequency and the damped frequency of oscillation.​
natita [175]

Answer:

This causes the amplitude of the oscillation to decay over time. The damped oscillation frequency does not equal the natural frequency. Damping causes the frequency of the damped oscillation to be slightly less than the natural frequency

Which statement(s) accurately describe the conditions immediately before and after the firecracker explodes:
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Option C, The total momentum of the fragments is equal to the original momentum of the firecracker.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of cracker cannot remain constant before and after explosion. It is so because in the process of burning and bursting some amount of kinetic energy is lost in the form of light and heat energy. While the total mass before and after the explosion remains constant due to which the momentum is conserved before and after the explosion

Hence, option C is correct

LO NECESITO PARA HOY URGENTE!! 2. Exprese en metros las siguientes longitudes a) 48,9 km b) 36,875 cm c) 756,34 hm d) 9876 mm
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

a)48900 metros

b)0.36875 metros

c)75634 metros

d)9.876 metros

Explanation:

Hola, para resolver debemos convertir unidades utilizando equivalencias

a) 48.9 km  

1 kilometro = 1000 metros

48.9 x 1000 = 48900 metros

b) 36.875 cm  

1 centímetro =0.01 metros

36.875 x 0.01 = 0.36875 metros

c) 756,34 hm

1 hectómetro= 100 metros

756.34 x 100 = 75634 metros

d) 9876 mm

1 milímetro = 0.001 m

9876 x 0.001 = 9.876 metros

An 8.0-ohm resistor and a 6.0-ohm resistor are connected in series with a battery. The potential difference across the 6.0-ohm r
ipn [44]

Answer:

a) 14 Ω

b) 2.0 A

c) 28 V

Explanation:

a) The total resistance of resistors in series is the sum:

R = R₁ + R₂

R = 8.0 Ω + 6.0 Ω

R = 14 Ω

b) The current in the 6.0 Ω resistor can be found with Ohm's law:

V = IR

12 V = I (6.0 Ω)

I = 2.0 A

c) Since the resistors are in series, they have the same current.  So the total voltage is:

V = IR

V = (2.0 A) (14 Ω)

V = 28 V
