Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

Newton's third law states that, for every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force.

Action and reaction forces acts on two different bodies.

In case of rocket propulsion, the action force is due to the exhaust of gases pushing downward on the earth and due to the reaction force the rocket moves upwards in the space.

The answer is A. Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. A rocket exerts a large force on the gas that is in the rocket chamber (action). The gas thus exerts a large reaction force forward on the rocket (reaction). The large reaction force is called thrust.

IM SOO CONFUSED PLS HELP!! The mass of the nucleus is approximately EQUAL to the mass number multiplied by ____ Atomic Mass unit

nevsk [136]

Answer:

option a.

Explanation:

We can think of an atom as a nucleus (where the protons and neutrons are) and some electrons orbiting it.

We also know that the mass of an electron is a lot smaller than the mass of a proton or the mass of an electron.

So, if all the protons and electrons of an atom are in the nucleus, we know that most of the mass of an atom is in the nucleus of that atom.

Then we define the mass number, which is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom. Such that the mass of a proton (or a neutron) is almost equal to 1u

Then if we define A as the total number of protons and neutrons, and each one of these weights about 1u

(where u = atomic mass unit)

Then the weight of the nucleus is about A times 1u, or:

A*1u = A atomic mass units.

Then the correct option is:

The mass of the nucleus is approximately EQUAL to the mass number multiplied by __1__ Atomic Mass unit.

option a.

A freight car with a mass of 10 metric tons is rolling at 108 km/h along a level track when it collides with another freight car

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

20 metric tons

Explanation:

Using the Principle of Conservation of Linear Momentum which states that the total momentum of a system is constant in any direction in which no external force acts.

momentum before collision= momentum after collision

mathematically expressed as

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2 =0

where:

m1= mass of rolling freight car = 10 metric tons = 10Mg

1 ton = 1000kg= 1Mg

u1 =initial velocity of freight car = 108km/h,

m2 = mass of stationary freight car = ?, this the unknown we are finding

u2 = initial velocity of

m2 = 0, because it is at rest,

v1= final velocity of m1,

v2= final velocity of m2

since they move together in the same direction they share a common final velocity as such

v1=v2= 36km/h

substituting valves in expression give

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2= 0

10Mgx 108km/hr + m2 x 0 = 10Mg x 36km/h + m2x36km/h

1080( Mg x km/hr) + 0 = 360 (Mg x Km/h) + 36m2 (km/h)

1080 (Mgx km/hr) - 360(Mg x km/h) = 36m2 (km/h)

720(Mg x km/h) = 36m2 (km/h)

divide both side by 36 (km/h) gives

m2 = 20Mg =20 metric tons

What is the difference between mutual flux, leakage flux and magnetizing flux

Lemur [1.5K]

In simple words, flux can be stated as the rate of flow of a fluid, radiant energy, or particles across a given area.

Explanation:

Mutual Flux:

The magnetic lines present in among two magnets or solenoid is mutual flux.
These are the lines in which the attraction and repulsion happens.
The SI unit of mutual flux is the Henry

Leakage Flux:

In simple words, it can be stated as the magnetic flux which does not follow the specially designed way in a magnetic circuit.
Leakage flux in the induction motor takes spot due to current runs through the essence of the induction motor.
The SI unit of Leakage flux is the Weber

Magnetizing flux

Magnetic flux is an analysis of the entire magnetic field which moves in a given field
In simple words can be defined as the Magnetic flux is what generates the field around a magnetic material.

The SI unit of magnetic flux is the Weber

552000 in scientific notation

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

5.52 × 10 to the 5th power (100000) . In scientific notation you need to have a decimal numver times 10 to the power of something so you can divide 552000 by 10 5 times. So in order to get 552000 you need to have 10 to the 4th power and 5.52
