Antiballistic missiles (ABMs) are designed to have very large accelerations so that they may intercept fast-moving incoming miss

iles in the short time available. What is the takeoff acceleration of a 10,000-kg ABM that expels 196 kg of gas per second at an exhaust velocity of 2.50×103 m/s?

Answer:

a = 39.2 m/s²

Explanation:

The <em>takeoff acceleration </em>of a missile or a rocket can be expressed by the equation

  • a = V₀/m * Δm/Δt - g

Where V₀ is the exhaust velocity, m is the mass of the missile, Δm is the mass of gas expelled during a timelapse Δt, and g is gravitational acceleration.

All required data is given by the problem, so now we <u>solve for a</u>:

a = 2.50x10³m/s ÷ 10,000kg * 196kg ÷ 1s - 9.8m/s²

a = 39.2 m/s²

A piece of styrofoam has a charge of 0.002 mC and is placed 0.5 m from a grain of salt with a charge of 0.03 nC. How much electr
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

2.16×10⁻⁶ N

Explanation:

Applying,

F = kqq'/r² (coulomb's Law)....................... Equation 1

Where F = electrostatic force, k = coulomb's constant, q = charge on the styrofoam, q' = charge on the grain of salt, r = distance between the charges.

From the question,

Given: q = 0.002 mC = 2.0×10⁻⁶ C, q' = 0.03 nC = 3.0×10⁻¹¹ C, r = 0.5 m

Constant: k = 8.99×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values into equation 1

F = (2.0×10⁻⁶)(3.0×10⁻¹¹)(8.99×10⁹)/0.5²

F = 2.16×10⁻⁶ N

Which statement best describes the effect of the magnet on the block of
barxatty [35]

The magnet (south pole of the magnet) has magnetized the right side of the block.

<h3>Direction of electric field in the magnetic material</h3>

The direction of electric field of the atom of the magnetic material is unpolarized.

From the diagram in the image, the right hand side of the magnetic material is being attracted to south pole of the magnet.

Thus, we can conclude that, the magnet has magnetized the right side of the block.

A jetliner has a velocity of 95 m/s. What is the displacement of the jetliner at t=3.0 seconds?
charle [14.2K]
Distance = speed / time

speed = 95 m/s
time = 3 s

distance = 95 / 3 m

displacement = 95/3 m or 32 m (2 s.f.)

In which situation is the acceleration of the car negative?
VikaD [51]
When a car is slowing down, it has a negative acceleration.  Although it is not going a negative speed, it is decreasing in velocity, which is the definition of a negative acceleration.

Hope this helps!
