Answer:

Voltage= 9.4 V

Current= 1.3 A

Explanation:

Equivalent resistance will be the sum of two resistors hence

R_{equ}=2+7.2=9.2Ω

From Ohm's law, V=IR where I is current, R is equivalent resistance and V is voltage

Terminal voltage will be given by V=e-Ir where r is internal resistance, I is current and e is electromotive force.

From Ohm's law, current is given by dividing emf of the battery by the equivalent resistance hence

I=\frac {e}{R_{equ}}\\I=\frac {12}{9.2}=1.304347826A\approx 1.3A

This is the current through external resistor

Terminal voltage will be given by V=e-Ir hence V=12-(1.3*2)=9.4 V

A catapult launches a test rocket vertically upward from a well, giving the rocket an initial speed of 80.6 m/s at ground level.
kow [346]

Before the engines fail, the rocket's altitude at time <em>t</em> is given by

y_1(t)=\left(80.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t+\dfrac12\left(3.90\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2

and its velocity is

v_1(t)=80.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}+\left(3.90\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t

The rocket then reaches an altitude of 1150 m at time <em>t</em> such that

1150\,\mathrm m=\left(80.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t+\dfrac12\left(3.90\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2

Solve for <em>t</em> to find this time to be

t=11.2\,\mathrm s

At this time, the rocket attains a velocity of

v_1(11.2\,\mathrm s)=124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

When it's in freefall, the rocket's altitude is given by

y_2(t)=1150\,\mathrm m+\left(124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2

where g=9.80\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2} is the acceleration due to gravity, and its velocity is

v_2(t)=124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}-gt

(a) After the first 11.2 s of flight, the rocket is in the air for as long as it takes for y_2(t) to reach 0:

1150\,\mathrm m+\left(124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=32.6\,\mathrm s

So the rocket is in motion for a total of 11.2 s + 32.6 s = 43.4 s.

(b) Recall that

{v_f}^2-{v_i}^2=2a\Delta y

where v_f and v_i denote final and initial velocities, respecitively, a denotes acceleration, and \Delta y the difference in altitudes over some time interval. At its maximum height, the rocket has zero velocity. After the engines fail, the rocket will keep moving upward for a little while before it starts to fall to the ground, which means y_2 will contain the information we need to find the maximum height.

-\left(124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)^2=-2g(y_{\rm max}-1150\,\mathrm m)

Solve for y_{\rm max} and we find that the rocket reaches a maximum altitude of about 1930 m.

(c) In part (a), we found the time it takes for the rocket to hit the ground (relative to y_2(t)) to be about 32.6 s. Plug this into v_2(t) to find the velocity before it crashes:

v_2(32.6\,\mathrm s)=-196\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}

That is, the rocket has a velocity of 196 m/s in the downward direction as it hits the ground.

Magnesium Oxide Reaction
Verizon [17]

Answer:

When magnesium reacts with oxygen, it produces light bright enough to blind you temporarily. Magnesium burns so bright because the reaction releases a lot of heat. As a result of this exothermic reaction, magnesium gives two electrons to oxygen, forming powdery magnesium oxide (MgO).
