Answer:
Question 1)
a) The speed of the drums is increased from 2 ft/s to 4 ft/s in 4 s. From the below kinematic equations the acceleration of the drums can be determined.

This is the linear acceleration of the drums. Since the tape does not slip on the drums, by the rule of rolling without slipping,

where α is the angular acceleration.
In order to continue this question, the radius of the drums should be given.
Let us denote the radius of the drums as R, the angular acceleration of drum B is
α = 0.5/R.
b) The distance travelled by the drums can be found by the following kinematics formula:

One revolution is equal to the circumference of the drum. So, total number of revolutions is

Question 2)
a) In a rocket propulsion question, the acceleration of the rocket can be found by the following formula:

b) 
I do not know what the school expects as an answer, but advantage of reflecting telescopes is that there is only one major reflecting surface, so it is quite easy to create a 6 or 8 inch telescope by an amateur, after adding on a prism and an eyepiece. (a microscope eyepiece could be used).
MY answer would be "easier to build". (it still takes tens of hours to grind and polish the single plane surface to a parabolic surface).
Electromagnetic waves all have the same velocity in the same medium. However, since frequencies vary widely, so do wavelengths.

The force which has the greatest effect on causing this object to slow while it remains in contact with the ramp is: B. a frictional force.
<h3>What is a force?</h3>
A force can be defined as a push or pull of an object or physical body, which typically results in a change of motion (acceleration), especially due to the interaction of the object with another.
<h3>The types of force.</h3>
In Science, there are different types of force and these include the following:
<h3>What is a
frictional force?</h3>
Friction force can be defined as a type of force that resists and slows the relative motion of two physical objects when there surfaces come in contact. This ultimately implies that, a frictional force prevents two surfaces from easily sliding over or slipping across one another.
In this context, we can infer and logically deduce that the force which has the greatest effect on causing this object to slow while it remains in contact with the ramp is a frictional force.
