1. A rocket is forced forward by the ______ force of its engines, expelling gases out the rear of the rocket.

1 answer:

6 0

There are two forces acting on a rocket at the moment of lift off: Thrust pushes the rocket upwards by pushing gases downwards in the opposite direction.Weight is the force due to gravity pulling the rocket downwards towards the centre of the earth.So I'm thinking the answer is THRUST.

A thin walled spherical shell is rolling on a surface. What

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

$=\frac{1/3}{5/6} = 0.4$

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of given shell $= \frac{2}{3} MR^2$

where

M represent sphere mass

R -sphere radius

we know linear speed is given as $v = r\omega$

translational $K.E = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{1}{2} m(r\omega)^2$

rotational $K.E = \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2 = \frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{3} MR^2 \omega^2$

total kinetic energy will be

$K.E = \frac{1}{2} m(r\omega)^2 + \frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{3} MR^2 \omega^2$

$K.E =\frac{5}{6} MR^2 \omega^2$

fraction of rotaional to total K.E

$=\frac{1/3}{5/6} = 0.4$

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

All substances have characteristic physical and chemical properties. Physical properties are those that can be observed with the senses without changing the identity of the substance. Chemical properties describe how a substance can be changed into a new substance. Physical and chemical properties, such as color, density, boiling point, solubility, conductivity, and flammability, A. are always different between substances. B. depend on the amount of the substance. C. do not depend on the amount of the substance. D. have the same values for all substances.
