Jake uses a fire extinguisher to put out a small fire. When he squeezes the handle, the flame rettardant is released from the ex

tinguisher with considerable force. As a result, Jake has to reinforce his grip on the extinguisher to hold it in place as it pushes back into his hands. The projectile in this scenario is the . The recoil in this scenario is the . The force on the flame rettardant is the force on the extinguisher. The mass of the flame rettardant is the mass of the extinguisher. The acceleration of the flame rettardant is the acceleration of the extinguisher.

The projectile in this scenario is the flame r.

The recoil in this scenario is the extinguisher.

The force on the flame r is equal to the force on the extinguisher.

The mass of the flame r is less than the mass of the extinguisher.

The acceleration of the flame r is greater than the acceleration of the extinguisher.

Water drops fall from the edge of a roof at a steady rate. a fifth drop starts to fall just as the first drop hits the ground. a
Alchen [17]

The height of the roof is <u>3.57m</u>

Let the drops fall at a rate of 1 drop per t seconds. The first drop takes 5t seconds to reach the ground. The second drop takes 4t seconds to reach the bottom of the 1.00 m window, while the 3rd drop takes 3t s to reach the top of the window.

Calculate the distances traveled by the second and the third drops s₂ and s₃, which start from rest from the roof of the building.

s_2=\frac{1}{2} g(4t)^2=8gt^2\\  s_3=\frac{1}{2} g(3t)^2=(4.5)gt^2

The length of the window s is given by,

s=s_2-s_3\\ (1.00 m)=8gt^2-4.5gt^2=3.5gt^2\\ t^2=\frac{1.00 m}{(3.5)(9.8m/s^2)} =0.02915s^2

The first drop is at the bottom and it takes 5t seconds to reach down.

The height of the roof h is the distance traveled by the first drop and is given by,

h=\frac{1}{2} g(5t)^2=\frac{25t^2}{2g} =\frac{25(0.02915s^2)}{2(9.8m/s^2)} =3.57 m

the height of the roof is 3.57 m

People in the future may well live inside a rotating space structure that is more than 2 km in diameter. Inside the structure, p
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

given,

diameter of the rotating space = 2 Km

Force exerted at the edge of the space = 1 g

force experienced at the half way = ?

As the object is rotating in the circular part

Force is equal to centripetal acceleration.

at the edge

g = ω² r

ω is the angular velocity of the particle

r is the radius.

now, acceleration at the half way

g' = ω² r'

g' = \omega^2 (\dfrac{r}{2})

g' =\dfrac{1}{2}(\omega^2 r)

g'=\dfrac{g}{2}

People at the halfway experience g/2

hence, the correct answer is option B

State the Newton 2nd law of motion and also prove that F= ma<br>​
saw5 [17]

Explanation:

F = ma is the formula of Newton's Second Law of Motion. Newton's Second Law of Motion is defined as Force is equal to the rate of change of momentum. For a constant mass, force equals mass times acceleration.
