<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.

A carbon rod with a radius of 1.9 mm is used to make a resistor. What length of the carbon rod should be used to make a 3.7 Ω re
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Length = 2.32 m

Explanation:

Let the length required be 'L'.

Given:

Resistance of the resistor (R) = 3.7 Ω

Radius of the rod (r) = 1.9 mm = 0.0019 m [1 mm = 0.001 m]

Resistivity of the material of rod (ρ) = 1.8\times 10^{-5}\ \Omega\cdot m

First, let us find the area of the circular rod.

Area is given as:

A=\pi r^2=3.14\times (0.0019)^2=1.13\times 10^{-5}\ m^2

Now, the resistance of the material is given by the formula:

R=\rho( \frac{L}{A})

Express this in terms of 'L'. This gives,

\rho\times L=R\times A\\\\L=\frac{R\times A}{\rho}

Now, plug in the given values and solve for length 'L'. This gives,

L=\frac{3.7\ \Omega\times 1.13\times 10^{-5}\ m^2}{1.8\times 10^{-5}\ \Omega\cdot m}\\\\L=\frac{4.181}{1.8}=2.32\ m

Therefore, the length of the material required to make a resistor of 3.7 Ω is 2.32 m.

In a binary star system, an unseen component is found to have 8 solar masses. It would be visible if the system were a normal st
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Black Hole

Explanation:

A black hole is a very dense and massive stellar object, which has a field of gravity so large that not even light can escape it.

Since it does not emit light, <u>we cannot see them directly</u>, hence the name of black hole.

So in this case,<u> if the object has a mass of 8 solar masses that is enough to form a black hole</u>, and <u>also cannot be seen</u>, all of this indicates that the object we are talking about is a black hole.

It should be mentioned that although these objects do not emit light, because it cannot escape due to the immense force of gravity, black holes can be detected by a type of radiation emitted on their event horizon due to quantum effects called Hawking radiation .

A 100 N force is applied to a 50 kg crate resting on a level floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.15. What is the acc
Nookie1986 [14]

The acceleration of the crate after it begins to move is 0.5 m/s²

We'll begin by calculating the the frictional force

Mass (m) = 50 Kg

Coefficient of kinetic friction (μ) = 0.15

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Normal reaction (N) = mg = 50 × 10 = 500 N

<h3>Frictional force (Fբ) =?</h3>

Fբ = μN

Fբ = 0.15 × 500

<h3>Fբ = 75 N</h3>

  • Next, we shall determine the net force acting on the crate

Frictional force (Fբ) = 75 N

Force (F) = 100 N

<h3>Net force (Fₙ) =?</h3>

Fₙ = F – Fբ

Fₙ = 100 – 75

<h3>Fₙ = 25 N</h3>

  • Finally, we shall determine the acceleration of the crate

Mass (m) = 50 Kg

Net force (Fₙ) = 25 N

<h3>Acceleration (a) =?</h3>

a = Fₙ / m

a = 25 / 50

<h3>a = 0.5 m/s²</h3>

Therefore, the acceleration of the crate is 0.5 m/s²
