Why would a rocket fall vertically downwards if it was launched vertically upwards​

Physics
1 answer:
IgorC [24]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

It would because the shape of the rocket is designed to be able to slice through the air as smooth as possible and now you may be thinking that air is already smooth but when you try to push something as large and heavy like a rocket then the shape of the rocket will be very important. The bottom of the rocket is flatter then the top so it is not designed to fly smoothly through the air. So the rocket would fall vertically downward(If it was still in one piece)because of it's shape. It is easier for the top of the rocket to go smoothly through the air then the bottom.

Explanation:

I am 90% sure this is correct but if I'm not please tell me

A gymnast of mass 62.0 kg hangs from a vertical rope attached to the ceiling. You can ignore the weight of the rope and assume t
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

a) T = 608.22 N

b) T = 608.22 N

c) T = 682.62 N

d) T = 533.82 N

Explanation:

Given that the mass of gymnast is m = 62.0 kg

Acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.81 m/s²

Thus; The weight of the gymnast is acting downwards and tension in the string acting upwards.

So;

To calculate the tension T in the rope if the gymnast hangs motionless on the rope; we have;

T = mg

= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s²)

= 608.22 N

When the gymnast climbs the rope at a constant rate tension in the string is

= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s²)

= 608.22 N

When the gymnast climbs up the rope with an upward acceleration of magnitude

a = 1.2 m/s²

the tension in the string is  T - mg = ma (Since acceleration a is upwards)

T = ma + mg

= m (a + g )

= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s² + 1.2  m/s²)

= (62.0 kg) (11.01 m/s²)

= 682.62 N

When the gymnast climbs up the rope with an downward acceleration of magnitude

a = 1.2 m/s² the tension in the string is  mg - T = ma (Since acceleration a is downwards)

T = mg - ma

= m (g - a )

= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s² - 1.2 m/s²)

= (62.0 kg)(8.61 m/s²)

= 533.82 N

An engineer has the task of producing an aluminum alloy with a density of 3.0 grams per cubic centimeter. She comes up with the
pochemuha

Answer:

The best option is for the following option m = 15 [g] and V = 5 [cm³]

Explanation:

We have that the density of a body is defined as the ratio of mass to volume.

Ro =m/V

where:

Ro = density = 3 [g/cm³]

Now we must determine the densities with each of the given values.

<u>For m = 7 [g] and V = 2.3 [cm³]</u>

Ro=7/2.3\\Ro=3.04 [g/cm^{3} ]

<u>For m = 10 [g] and V = 7 [cm³]</u>

<u />Ro=10/7\\Ro=1.42[g/cm^{3} ]\\<u />

<u>For m = 15 [g] and V = 5 [cm³]</u>

<u />Ro=15/5\\Ro=3[g/cm^{3} ]\\<u />

<u>For m = 21 [g] and V = 8 [cm³]</u>

<u />Ro=21/8\\Ro=2.625[g/cm^{3} ]\\<u />

The y component of a vector is 36, and the angle between the vector and the x axis is 27 what is the magnitude of the vector
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Magnitude of Vector = 79.3

Explanation:

When a vector is resolved into its rectangular components, it forms two vector components. These components  are named as x-component and y-component, they are calculated by the following formulae:

x-component of vector = (Magnitude of Vector)(Cos θ)

y-component of vector = (Magnitude of Vector)(Sin θ)

where,

θ = angle of the vector with x-axis = 27°

Therefore, using the values in the equation of y-component, we get:

36 = (Magnitude of Vector)(Sin 27°)

Magnitude of Vector = 36/Sin 27°

<u>Magnitude of Vector = 79.3</u>

Why does a satellite in a circular orbit travel at a constant speed? why does a satellite in a circular orbit travel at a constant speed? there is a force acting opposite to the direction of the motion of the satellite. there is no component of force acting along the direction of motion of the satellite. the net force acting on the satellite is zero. the gravitational force acting on the satellite is balanced by the centrifugal force acting on the satellite?
