Answer: 60kg/sec

Explanation:

From the question, the mass is given as:

Mass, m = 6000kg

The formula for thrust us calculated as:

F = u × dt/dm

We then equate thrust = weight. This will be:

1000 × dt/dm =mg

1000 × dt/dm = 6000 × 10

1000 × dt/dm = 60000

dt/dm = 60,000/1,000

dt/dm = 60kg

Therefore, the gas ejected per second will be 60 kg/s

Answer:

Changes in the object's momentum (answer D)

Explanation:

A net force will cause an object to change its velocity, and that will affect the object's momentum, which is defined by the product of the object's mass times its velocity.

So, select the last option (D) in the given list.

What happens when an object is dropped?
katrin2010 [14]
When an object is dropped, tossed, or kicked, as long as it is not laying on the ground, it accelerates downward, because of the force of gravity acting on it.

Is newton third law accurate for electric forces?
inn [45]

An object with greater charge will exert a greater force on an object than an object with smaller charge would. However, if you consider two charges that exert a force on each other, regardless of the magnitude of charge, both charges will exert an equal force on each other because of Newton's third law.

A race car starting from rest accelerates uniformly at a rate of 3.90 m/s^2 what is the cars speed after it has traveled 200 m.
snow_tiger [21]
The formula for accelerational displacement is at^2/2, so we know that 3.9t^2/2 = 200, or 3.9t^2 = 400. t = \sqrt{400/3.9} \approx 10.12739367, at = v, so 3.9 * 10.12739367 \approx 39.5  m/s
