The First Law describes how an object acts when no force is acting upon it. So, rockets stay still until a force is applied to move them. Likewise, once they're in motion, they won't stop until a force is applied. Newton's Second Law tells us that the more mass an object has, the more force is needed to move it. A larger rocket will need stronger forces (eg. more fuel) to make it accelerate. The space shuttles required seven pounds of fuel for every pound of payload they carry. 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.

Why is the ocean warmer than the air at night
Sliva [168]

You see, during the day the ocean collects heat from the sun. So the air above the ocean get warm at night, but the rest of the air on the land gets cooler because water has the ability to collect energy from the Sun.

1. What are the units of area under the line/curve?<br> 2. Does the area have any meaning?
TiliK225 [7]

The area under the velocity time graph is 125 m and the meaning of the area is displacement.

<h3>What is area under velocity - time graph?</h3>

The area under a velocity time graph represents the displacement of the object.

total area of the graph = A1 + A2

total area of the graph = ¹/₂ (base₁)(height₁) + ¹/₂ (base₂)(height₂)

total area of the graph = ¹/₂(4)(40) + ¹/₂(3)(30)

total area of the graph = 125 m

Thus, the area under the velocity time graph is 125 m and the meaning of the area is displacement.
