<span>A rocket experiences a constant force even as the amount of fuel in its fuel tanks decreases. The acceleration on the other hand would increase since mass and acceleration is inversely proportional. By virtue of the equation F=ma. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Answer:

D. The acceleration increases because the mass decreases.

Explanation:

I took the quiz and its right :)

A tennis ball, 0.314kg, is accelerated at a rate of 164m/s2 when hit by a professional tennis player. What force does the player
Colt1911 [192]

Newton's 2nd law of motion:

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

= (0.314 kg) x (164 m/s²)

=  51.5 newtons

(about 11.6 pounds).

Notice that the ball is only accelerating while it's in contact with the racket. The instant the ball loses contact with the racket, it stops accelerating, and sails off in a straight line at whatever speed it had when it left the strings.

Light in vacuum is incident on the surface of a slab of transparent material. In the vacuum the beam makes an angle of 39.9° wit
wariber [46]

Answer:

n=2.053

Explanation:

We will use Snell's Law defined as:

n_{1}*Sin\theta_{1}=n_{2}*Sin\theta_{2}

Where n values are indexes of refraction and \theta values are the angles in each medium. For vacuum, the index of refraction in n=1. With this we have enough information to state:

1*Sin(39.9)=n_{2}*Sin(18.2)

Solving for n_{2} yields:

n_{2}=\frac{Sin(39.9)}{Sin(18.2)}=2.053

Remember to use degrees for trigonometric functions instead of radians!

Two parakeets sit on a swing with their combined center of mass 10.0 cm below the pivot. At what frequency do they swing?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

1.58 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of the simple pendulum is given by

f = 1/T

 = 1/2π√g/l  

In this problem, I = 10.0 cm = 0.1 m  

f = 1/2π√9.8/0.1

=  1.58 Hz

Aluminum has a density of
agasfer [191]

<h3><u>Volume is 0.1848 m³</u></h3><h3 />

Explanation:

<h2>Given:</h2>

m = 49.9 kg

ρ = 270 kg/m³

<h2>Required:</h2>

volume

<h2>Equation:</h2>

ρ \:= \:\frac{m}{v}

where: ρ - density

m - mass

v - volume

<h2>Solution:</h2>

Substitute the value of ρ and m

ρ \:= \:\frac{m}{v}

270\: kg/m³\:= \:\frac{49.9\:kg}{v}

(v)\:270\: kg/m³\:= \:49.9\:kg

v\:= \:\frac{49.9\:kg}{270\: kg/m³}

v\:= \:0.1848\:m³

<h2>Final Answer:</h2><h3><u>Volume is 0.1848 m³</u></h3>
