Explain how Newton's third law is applied when a rocket ship is being launched?

1 answer:

6 0

Newton's Third Law states that "every action has an equal and opposite reaction". In a rocket, burning fuel creates a push on the front of the rocket pushing it forward. This creates an equal and opposite push on the exhaust gas backwards.

As per Newton's III law every action has equal and opposite reaction

So here we can say that

every body which apply force on other body must have a reaction force of same magnitude in opposite direction

So here if ball hits the ground by 50 N force then the ball must have a reaction force on itself with same magnitude and opposite direction

the magnitude of the force will be 50 N

and its direction is opposite to the force that ball apply on the floor

Which of the following is the best definition of gravity?

IRISSAK [1]

In physics, gravity is the natural force that causes things to fall toward the earth. The noun gravity can also mean seriousness or solemnity. Someone who conducts themselves with an air of gravity is someone who takes what they are doing seriously.

vichka [17]

Answer:

Thus, if field were sampled at same distance, the field due to short wire is greater than field due to long wire.

Explanation:

The magnetic field, B of long straight wire can be obtained by applying ampere's law

$B= \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}$

I is here current, and r's the distance from the wire to the field of measurement.

The magnetic field is obviously directly proportional to the current wire. From this expression.

As the resistance of the long cable is proportional to the cable length, the short cable becomes less resilient than the long cable, so going through the short cable (where filled with the same material) is a bigger amount of currents. If the field is measured at the same time, the field is therefore larger than the long wire because of the short wire.
