Answer:

B. Action and reaction forces

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion, which states that action and reaction forces are equal and opposite, makes a rocket achieve lift off.

When the engine of a rocket burns fuel, the rocket experiences a thrust (a push) on the front that pushes it upwards. This thrust causes an equal and opposite push on the exhaust gas of the rocket downwards. The burning of the fuel is the action, <em>the thrust</em>, and it causes the rocket to move upwards. The push back on the exhaust gas is the reaction caused by the <em>weight</em> of the rocket.

For the rocket to lift off, the thrust must be greater than the weight of the rocket.

What is the unit of k (spring constant) in SI system?

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

SI unit of k (spring constant) = N/m

Explanation:

We have expression for force in a spring extended by x m given by

F = kx

Where k is the spring constant value.

Taking units on both sides

Unit of F = Unit of k x Unit of x

N = Unit of k x m

Unit of k = N/m

SI unit of k (spring constant) = N/m

Answer:

Here the source is moving away from the observer so frequency will be smaller than the actual frequency and since the speed is increasing so the frequency is decreasing with time so correct answer is

D) lower than the original pitch and decreasing as he falls.

Explanation:

As we know by the Doppler's effect of sound we have

so we will have

$f = f_o(\frac{v}{v + v_s})$

so here when source moves away from the observer with a some speed then the frequency of the sound observed by the observer is smaller than the actual frequency

Here we know that the speed of the source is increasing with time as the source is falling under gravity

So we can say that the pitch of the sound will decrease with time

How is voltmeter connected in the circuit to measure the potential difference between two points?

34kurt

Voltmeter is used to find the potential difference between two points.

We always connect it in parallel to the points where we need the potential difference.

Here in order to make the reading accurate we can increase the resistance of voltmeter so that it can not withdraw any current from the circuit.

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Torque as a function of the Force in proportion to the radius to which it is applied. In turn, we will use the concepts of energy expressed as Work, and which is described as the Torque's rate of change in proportion to angular displacement:

$\tau = Fr$
