Answer:

Momentum is conserved.

Explanation:

-Momentum is conserved.

-By Newton's third law (For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.)-the change in momentum of gases in one direction must be balanced by an equal change in momentum of the spacecraft in the opposite direction.

1. A girl drops a ball off the roof of her house. It takes the ball 2 seconds to hit the ground. How tall
Masja [62]

If the acceleration constant..

you can use the formula s = ut + 1/2at²

Known that :

s = ?

u = 0

t = 2s

a = 10ms-²

Then you can apply the formula

s = ut + 1/2at²

s = 0 + 1/2(10)(2)²

s = 5 × 4

s = 20m

Answer : 20m

Explanation :

The gravity can be 9,8 or 10. Also im not sure how people teach you but in my school, if the ball goes down the gravity is positive and not negative thats why i put 10ms-² and not -10ms-²

s = displacement/distance

u = initial speed

a = acceleration

t = time

sorry if im wrong

A wagon wheel consists of 8 spokes of uniform diameter, each of mass ms and length L cm. The outer ring has a mass mring. What i
just olya [345]

Answer:

The moment of inertial of the wheel,  I = 8(\frac{1}{3}M_sL^2 ) + M_rL^2

Explanation:

Given;

8 spokes of uniform diameter

mass of each spoke, = M_s

length of each spoke, = L

mass of outer ring, = M_r

The moment of inertial of the wheel will be calculated as;

I = 8I_{spoke} + I_{ring}

where;

I_{spoke is the moment of inertia of each spoke

I_{ring is the moment of inertia of the rim

Moment of inertia of each spoke =\frac{1}{3}M_sL^2

Moment of inertial of the wheel

I = 8(\frac{1}{3}M_sL^2 ) + M_rL^2
