Answer:

Reflection: looking in window reflection. Refraction: You put a straw in a glass of water, and it looks like it broke. Absorption: If you have a black sweater and you wear it out in the cold, the black sweater is going to hold in heat better than a lighter sweater because the black sweater absorbs light .

Inessa [10]

Answer:

$W=2219pounds$

Explanation:

If the weight is a linear function of the amount of fuel, the following correlation is fulfilled :

$\frac{2153pounds-1999pounds}{46gallons-18gallons} = \frac{W-1999pounds}{58gallons-18galons}$

we solve the equation:

$W=2219pounds$

Answer:

a) $a=4\,\frac{m}{s^2}$

b) $V(t)=4\,t\,+3$

c) $V(1)=7 \,\frac{m}{s} \\$

d) Displacement = 22 m

e) Average speed = 11 m/s

Explanation:

Notice that the acceleration is the derivative of the velocity function, which in this case, being a straight line is constant everywhere, and which can be calculated as:

$slope= \frac{15=3}{3-0} =4\,\frac{m}{s^2}$

Therefore, acceleration is $a=4\,\frac{m}{s^2}$

b) the functional expression for this line of slope 4 that passes through a y-intercept at (0, 3) is given by:

$y=m\,x+b\\V(t)=4\,t\,+3$

c) Since we know the general formula for the velocity, now we can estimate it at any value for 't", for example for the requested t = 1 second:

$V(t)= 4\,t+3\\V(1)=4\,(1)+3\\V(1)=7 \,\frac{m}{s}$

d) The displacement between times t = 1 sec, and t = 3 seconds is given by the area under the velocity curve between these two time values. Since we have a simple trapezoid, we can calculate it directly using geometry and evaluating V(3) (we already know V(1)):

Displacement = $\frac{(7+15)\,2}{2} = 22\,\,m$

e) Recall that the average of a function between two values is the integral (area under the curve) divided by the length of the interval:

Average velocity = $\frac{22}{2} = 11\, \,\frac{m}{s}$

A rocket for use in deep space is to have the capability of boosting a total load (payload plus the rocket frame and engine) of

choli [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let f be the amount of fuel oxidizer needed

v be the speed

The relationship between them is inverse in nature i.e

f ∝ 1/v

f = k/v

If a rocket for use in deep space is to have the capability of boosting a total load (payload plus the rocket frame and engine) of 3.25 metric tons to a speed of 10,000 m/s, then f = 3.25 when v = 10,000

Substitute and get k

k = fv

k = 3.25 * 10,000

k = 32500

To get the amount of fuel oxidizer required to produce a speed of 2400m/s, we will find f when v = 2400m/s

Recall that f = k/v

f = 32500/2400

f = 13.54 metric tons

<em>Hence the fuel plus oxidizer that will be required is 13.54 tons</em>
