Please help :/ The same motor is used in rockets with different masses. The rockets have different accelerations. According to N

ewton’s second law, how is acceleration expected to change as the rocket mass increases?
Acceleration cannot be predicted based on changes in mass.
As rocket mass increases, acceleration decreases.
As rocket mass increases, acceleration increases.
There are no changes in acceleration, as it would depend on the amount of force. _

Different amounts of force are applied to the same boat over several trials, and the acceleration is measured. In a graph of acceleration versus net force, what does the slope of the graph represent?
the speed of the boat _
the mass of the boat _
the inverse of the mass of the boat _
the inverse of the speed of the boat

Answer:

1. As rocket mass increases, acceleration decreases.

2. The inverse of the mass of the boat.

Explanation:

1. Newton's second law of motion states;

         F = ma

where F is the force applied, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

Therefore, increasing the mass of a rocket increases its weight which would reduce its acceleration provided that the force is constant. Thus, as rocket mass increases, acceleration decreases.

2. The slope of the graph can be expressed as;

From Newton's second law,

F = ma

Slope = (Δa) ÷ (ΔF)

Slope = \frac{a}{F}

⇒ \frac{1}{m} = \frac{a}{F}

Therefore, the slope of the graph is the reciprocal of the mass of the boat.

Una tractomula se desplaza con rapidez de 69 km/h. Cuando el conductor ve una vaca atravesada enmedio de la carretera, acciona l
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Los datos que tenemos:

Rapidez: 69km/h

Tiempo que tarda en frenar = 4s.

Distancia inicial entre la tracto-mula y la vaca = 25m

Ok, la ecuación de desaceleración es:

D = (sf - si)/t

sf = velocidad final = 0m/s

si = velocidad inicial = 69km/h

t = tiempo = 4s

D = -69km/h/4s

ok, 1h = 3600s

D = (-69km/s)*1/(4*3600s)  = -0.0048 km/s^2

Entonces la ecuación de aceleración es:

a(t) =  -0.0048 km/s^2

Para la velocidad, integramos sobre el tiempo

v(t) = (-0.0048 km/s^2)*t + v0

donde v0 es la velocidad inicial, en este caso v0 = 69km/3600s = 0.0191km/s  

v(t) =  (-0.0048 km/s^2)*t + 0.0191km/s

Para la posición volvemos a integrar sobre el tiempo, esta vez suponemos la posición inicial igual a cero.

p(t) = (1/2)*(-0.0048 km/s^2)*t^2 + 0.0191m/s*t

Ahora, si p(t=4s) < 25m, esto implica que la tracto-mula no impacto con la vaca.

p(4s) = (1/2)*(-0.0048 km/s^2)*(4s)^2 + 0.0191km/s*4s = 0.038km

y 1km = 1000m

0.038km = 0.038*1000m = 38m

Entonces si, atropello a la vaca.

A mug rests on an inclined surface, as shown in (Figure 1) , θ=17∘.
Anna [14]
Refer to the figure shown below.

g =  9.8 m/s², the acceleration due to gravity.
W = mg, the weight of the mug.
θ = 17°, the angle of the ramp.

Let μ = the coefficient of static friction.

The force acting down the ramp is
F = W sin θ = W sin(17°) = 0.2924W N
The normal reaction is
N = W cosθ = W cos(17°) = 0.9563W N
The resistive force due to friction is
R = μN = 0.9563μW N

For static equilibrium,
μN = F
0.9563μW =0.2924W
μ = 0.3058

The frictional force is F = μN = 0.2924W
The minimum value of μ required to prevent the mug from sliding satisfies
 the condition
R > F
0.9563μW > 0.2924W
μ > 002924/.9563 = 0.306

Answer:
The frictional force is 0.2924mg, where m = the mass of the mug.
The minimum coefficient of static friction is 0.306

Why does th ground and atmosphere get warm during the day
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The Greenhouse Effect Revisited. When solar energy strikes the planet during the day, the ground, highways and other objects get hot and absorb that energy. As the sun goes down, the Earth cools by giving off infrared radiation. Because greenhouse gases absorb part of this radiation, the atmosphere warms and keeps the Earth from getting too cold.

During an episode of turbulence in an airplane you feel 210 n heavier than usual.if your mass is 72 kg, what are the magnitude a
lana66690 [7]
According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, the net force experienced by the system is equal to the mass of the system in question times the acceleration in motion. In this case, the net force is the difference of gravitational force and the force experience by the motion of the airplane. This difference is already given to be 210 N.

Net force = ma
210 N = (73 kg)(a)
a = +2.92 m/s²

Thus, the acceleration of the airplane's motion is 2.92 m/s² to the positive direction which is upwards.

The distance between two corresponding parts of a wave is its
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

wavelenght

Explanation:

The wavelength is the spatial period of a wave, analogous to the temporal period, it is the distance between two consecutive points with maximum amplitude that are repeated in space . In the waves of the sea, the wavelength is easily observed in the separation between two consecutive ridges.
