andrew11 [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

D. Upward force on the shuttle

Explanation:

The hot gas from space shuttles released downward causes an upward force on the shuttle and propels it up the more.

  • This hot gas is produced from super cooled oxygen and hydrogen tanks within the shuttle.
  • The upward force on the shuttle allows the craft to escape the gravitational pull of the earth on the shuttle
  • Special level of rapid acceleration must be attained for the shuttle to escape the earth pull.

A small dog is trained to jump straight up a distance of 1.2 m. How much kinetic energy does the 7.2-kg dog need to jump this hi
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Answer:84.672 joules.

Explanation:

1) Data:

m = 7.2 kg
h = 1.2 m
g = 9.8 m / s²

2) Physical principle

Using the law of mechanical energy conservation principle, you have that the kinetic energy of the dog, when it jumps, must be equal to the final gravitational potential energy.

3) Calculations:

The gravitational potential energy, PE, is equal to m × g × h

So, PE = m × g × h = 7.2 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 1.2 m = 84.672 joules.

And that is the kinetic energy that the dog needs.
