<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The acceleration of the rocket during launch is 1600 ms^-^2.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The rocket works on the principle of Newton’s third law which states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. The average thrusting force from the momentum is given as  

F= \frac{\Delta p} {\Delta t}

Here Δp is the change in momentum during the process of launching and Δt is the time taken by the rocket to attain its maximum speed for launching.

We also know that p = mv and F = ma from Newton’s second law of motion.

mass \times acceleration=\frac  {(mass \times \Delta velcoity)}  {\Delta time}

As the mass of the rocket will be constant during launching so Δp will have only variation in velocity. Thus the acceleration during launch of rocket will be

acceleration = \frac{80}{0.05}= 1600 ms^-^2

<em>Thus the launching acceleration is 1600 ms-2. </em>

Answer:

1600 \frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity divided by the time it took to produce such change. The formula then reads:

a = \frac{change-in-velocity}{time} = \frac{Vf-Vi}{t}

Where Vf is the final velocity of the object, (in our case 80 m/s)

Vi is the initial velocity of the object (in our case 0 m/s because the object was at rest)

and t is the time it took to change from the Vi to the Vf (in our case 0.05 seconds.

Therefore we have:

a = \frac{80 m/s - 0 m/s}{0.05 sec} = 1600 \frac{m}{s^2}

Notice that the units of acceleration in the SI system are \frac{m}{s^2} (meters divided square seconds)

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The first graph is showing the constant acceleration (1 m/s)

Explanation:

The second graph showing the flexible velocity therefore a in the graph is different at t1, t2, t3, t4

The last graph is showing constant velocity therefore there is no acceleration (a = 0)

A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area.
babunello [35]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as:

p=\frac{F}{A}

where

F is the magnitude of the force perpendicular to the surface

A is the surface

Therefore, pressure is inversely proportional to the area of the surface:

p\propto \frac{1}{A}

this means that, assuming that the forces in the two situations (which have same magnitude) are both applied perpendicular to the surface, the force exerted over the smaller area will exert a greater pressure. Hence, the statement"

<em>"A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area"</em>

is true.
