Sound waves are not able to travel in a vacuum, sound requires a medium such as air or a solid for example. Satellites are indeed in space, but radio waves are not sound waves they are a form of light. Light can travel in a vacuum so the messages that satellites beam back to Earth are light waves not sound waves, that is why it is possible.

Who water rocket starts from rest and roses straight up with an acceleration of 5 m/s until it runs out of water 2.5 seconds lat

Kitty [74]

Answer:

23. 4375 m

Explanation:

There are two parts of the rocket's motion

1 ) accelerating (assume it goes upto h1 height )

using motion equations upwards

$s = ut+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} \\h_1=0+\frac{1}{2}*5*2.5^{2} \\=15.625 m$

Lets find the velocity after 2.5 seconds (V1)

V = U +at

V1 = 0 +5*2.5 = 12.5 m/s

2) motion under gravity (assume it goes upto h2 height )

now there no acceleration from the rocket. it is now subjected to the gravity

using motion equations upwards (assuming g= 10m/s² downwards)

V²= U² +2as

0 = 12.5²+2*(-10)*h2

h2 = 7.8125 m

maximum height = h1 + h2

= 15.625 + 7.8125

= 23. 4375 m
