According to the cooling curve, segments 1, 3, 5 show a decrease in kinetic energy. During these segments, the temperature decreases and, since temperature is measure of the average kinetic energy of molecules, the average kinetic energy decreases as well.
A rocket ship starts from rest and turns on its forward booster rockets, causing it to have a constant acceleration of 4 m/s² rightward. After 3s, what will be the velocity of the rocket ship?
Answer:
v = 12 m/s
Explanation:
We are given;
Initial velocity; u = 0 m/s (because ship starts from rest)
Acceleration; a = 4 m/s²
Time; t = 3 s
To find velocity after 3 s, we will use Newton's first equation of motion;
