Answer:

2,500,000 MJ ( $2.5\cdot 10^6 J$ )

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem:

The work done on an object is equal to the amount of energy transferred

In this problem, the energy transferred by the rocket is

$E=2,500,000 MJ=2.5\cdot 10^6 J$

Therefore, the work done must be equal to the energy transferred, therefore:

$W=E=2.5\cdot 10^6 J$

A simple pendulum is made by tying a 2.44 kg stone to a string 4.57 m long. The stone is projected perpendicularly to the string

alexdok [17]

Answer:

$v_{max}=8.2226m/s$

Explanation:

The problem is solved using the law of conservation of energy,

$mgL(1-cos\theta)+\frac{1}{2}mv^2_0=\frac{1}{2}mv^2_{max}$

$v_{max}=\sqrt{2gL(1-cos\theta)+v^2_0}$

$v_{max}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(4.57)(1-cos(69.4))+8^2}$

$v_{max}=8.2226m/s$

a place that is typically cold because of an increase in altitude would most likely have what type of climate? dry climate mild

Marta_Voda [28]

A place that is cold because of an increase in altitude has a mountain area climate or simply, mountain climate. An area that is high in altitude typically has a colder temperature because of the increased amount of rainfall they have. Also, air tends to cool as it rises in temperature.

Answer:

it tells you that the speed increases until about 20 seconds then keeps a steady pace for 20 seconds then the speed drops and stops at 55 seconds in the process.
