Every action produces an equal and opposite reaction. When a rocket shoots fuel out one end, this propels the rocket forward

Answer:

Every action produces an equal and opposite reaction. When a rocket shoots fuel out on end, this will propel the roclet forward and no air is required. Roclets do not stop and neither do spacecrafts but they do reduce their speed. Objects will slow down in space but they won't necessarily stop. So the answer to your question is once the rocket is launched from Earth, it will have other substances to keep it moving.

You're welcome :)

<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ramps.Which statement is TRUE?

answer choices

Marble 1 has a faster speed than Marble 2.

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Both the marbles travel at the same speed.

There is not enough data to compare the speeds of marbles.

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Option B.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The speed is defined as the distance covered per unit time. Here in the question, 2 balls cover equal distances in same time.

Time taken by the ball = 10 seconds.

Distance covered by 1st ball = 20 cm.

Distance covered by 2nd ball = 3cm.

So speed of the 1st ball = 2cm/sec.

Speed of the 2nd ball = 3 cm /sec.

So,it's very much evident that speed of 2nd Marble is much higher than the speed of the 1st marble.

RoseWind [281]

Answer:3.6\ kW

Explanation:

Given

Power Supplied [tex]P_{input}=4\ kW[/tex]

Efficiency of the motor \neta =90\%

and \neta =\dfrac{\text{Power output}}{\text{Power input}}

\Rightarrow 0.9=\dfrac{P_{out}}{4}

\Rightarrow P=0.9\times 4

\Rightarrow P=3.6\ kW

So, vacuum cleaner delivers a power of 3.6\ kW

El espectro visible en el aire está comprendido entre la longitud de onda 450 nm del color azul, Determina la velocidad de propa
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

v = 2,99913 10⁸ m / s

Explanation:

The velocity of propagation of a wave is

         v = λ f

in the case of an electromagnetic wave in a vacuum the speed that speed of light

         v = c

When the wave reaches a material medium, it is transmitted through a resonant type process, whereby the molecules of the medium vibrate at the same frequency as the wave, as the speed of the wave decreases the only way that they remain the relationship is that the donut length changes in the material medium

         λ = λ₀ / n

where n is the index of refraction of the material medium.

Therefore the expression is

           v = \frac{\lambda_o}{n} f

Let's look for the frequency of blue light in a vacuum

           f =\frac{c }{\lambda_o}  

           f = \frac{3 \ 10^8}{450 \ 10^{-9}}

           f = 6.667 10¹⁴ Hz

the refractive index of air is tabulated

           n = 1,00029

let's calculate

           v = \frac{450 \ 10^{-9} }{1.00029}  \ 6.667 \ 10^{14}450 10-9 / 1,00029 6,667 1014

            v = 2,99913 10⁸ m / s

we can see that the decrease in speed is very small
