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.

A camera is equipped with a lens with a focal length of 34 cm. When an object 2.4 m (240 cm) away is being photographed, what is
puteri [66]

Answer:

The magnification is -6.05.

Explanation:

Given that,

Focal length = 34 cm

Distance of the image =2.4 m = 240 cm

We need to calculate the distance of the object

\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}

Where, u = distance of the object

v = distance of the image

f = focal length

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{34}-\dfrac{1}{240}

\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{103}{4080}

u =\dfrac{4080}{103}

The magnification is

m = \dfrac{-v}{u}

m=\dfrac{-240\times103}{4080}

m = -6.05

Hence, The magnification is -6.05.

Two particles, one with charge -5.45 × 10^-6 C and one with charge 4.39 × 10^-6 C, are 0.0209 meters apart. What is the magnitud
Levart [38]

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge 1, q_1=-5.45\times 10^{-6}\ C

Charge 2, q_2=4.39\times 10^{-6}\ C

Distance between charges, r = 0.0209 m

1. The electric force is given by :

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

F=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{-5.45\times 10^{-6}\times 4.39\times 10^{-6}}{(0.0209)^2}

F = -492.95 N

2. Distance between two identical charges, r=0.0209\ m

Electric force is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_3^2}{r^2}

q_3=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr^2}{k}}

q_3=\sqrt{\dfrac{492.95\times (0.0209)^2}{9\times 10^9}}

q_3=4.89\times 10^{-6}\ C

Hence, this is the required solution.

The force that probably propels the movement of the earth s gigantic rock plates is
il63 [147K]

The correct answer is:

c. convection.

The heating of magma and the continuous cycle of evolution of the magma creating a convection current is the reason for the evolution of Earths tectonic plates.

Explanation:

Tectonic plates are ready to move because the Earth's lithosphere has higher strength than the underlying asthenosphere. Lateral density changes in the mantle appear in convection. Plate movement is believed to be driven by a succession of the motion of the seafloor apart from the extended ridge (due to variations in topography and density of the crust.
