As the hot gas from a space shuttle is released downward, what does this cause to happen?

Physics
1 answer:
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.

Suppose a ball has a potential energy of 5 J when you drop it. What would be its kinetic energy just as it hit the ground? (Igno
mihalych1998 [28]

If you simply drop it ... so that it's not moving until you let it go ... then
the kinetic energy it has when it hits the ground is exactly the potential
energy it had while you were holding it.

5 J potential energy in your hand  ===>  5 J kinetic energy when it lands

Fire spreading from a wall to a nearby couch due to radiant heat transfer is an example of heat reflectivity.

<h3>What is heat reflectivity?</h3>

When sunlight and other light sources strike a material's surface, its reflectance is measured. This number can be used to characterize a surface's characteristics in terms of surface finish. Another name for reflection is reflectivity.

This is a measurement of the amount of energy that material reflects at a specific wavelength. A value between 0 and 1 can also be used to represent reflectivity (or a percentage between 0 and 100).

Sigma and other top businesses have created a range of other forms of heat reflective fabric in the 50 years after the creation of space blankets, including Fabric and aluminum foil laminates, fabric laminates with metalized thin films.

A toaster uses 6700 joules of energy in 45 seconds to toast to a piece of bread what is power of the oven
just olya [345]
P= w/t and W= Work 
In this case, W= 6,700j, and T= 45 seconds
Power is the ratio of work  per unit time. When you perform a work in a given span of time, the ratio of work performed with respect to time is Called Power. 
si unit for Power is Watt (W) 
so, P= 6,700/45
P= 148 
Final answer is P=148

Many of water's emergent properties, such as its cohesion, its high specific heat, and its high heat of vaporization, result fro
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Option 5.

Explanation:

Many of the properties of water like high specific heat, cohesion, high vaporization heat, etc can be contributed to the polar nature of water molecule.

Water being a polar molecule as it contains positively charged hydrogen and an electro-negative oxygen which results in uneven or non uniformity in sharing of electrons which leads to dipole formation and hence polarization of the molecule due to which it attracts its neighboring molecules.

This polar nature imparts the properties like cohesion, surface tension , adhesion, etc due to the presence of hydrogen bonds in water molecule.
