4 0

Answer:

- 9m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 40m/s

Time taken  = 3s

Final velocity  = 13m/s

Unknown:

Acceleration of the car  = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time taken.

   Acceleration  = \frac{Final velocity  - Initial velocity }{Time taken}  

  Acceleration  = \frac{13  - 40 }{3}   = - 9m/s²

Suppose we repeat the experiment from the video, but this time we use a rocket three times as massive as the one in the video, a
shusha [124]

Answer:

2/3

Explanation:

In the case shown above, the result 2/3 is directly related to the fact that the speed of the rocket is proportional to the ratio between the mass of the fluid and the mass of the rocket.

In the case shown in the question above, the momentum will happen due to the influence of the fluid that is in the rocket, which is proportional to the mass and speed of the same rocket. If we consider the constant speed, this will result in an increase in the momentum of the fluid. Based on this and considering that rocket and fluid has momentum in opposite directions we can make the following calculation:

Rocket speed = rocket momentum / rocket mass.

As we saw in the question above, the mass of the rocket is three times greater than that of the rocket in the video. For this reason, we can conclude that the calculation should be done with the rocket in its initial state and another calculation with its final state:

Initial state: Speed ​​= rocket momentum / rocket mass.

Final state: Speed ​​= 2 rocket momentum / 3 rocket mass. -------------> 2/3

Match the boundary with its characteristic
kondor19780726 [428]
<span>Matching the boundary with its characteristics 1. Convergent - C. Compression 2. Divergent - B. Along ocean ridges 3. Transform - A. Along strike-slip faults The compression that occur in the convergent boundary causes the reverse fault in the earth crust. So in the divergent boundary two crust plates move apart causing a normal fault along the ocean ridges. The faults in the transform boundary happens at the place where plates slide laterally.</span>

A wrench is accidentally dropped from the top of a mast on a sailboat. Will the wrench hit at the same place on the deck whether
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Yes, because the wrench is moving at the same speed as the sailboat.

The main difference is that a person on the ground would see the wrench moving diagonally, while a person on the boat would see the wrench falling straight down,

This difference in paths lead to the relativistic change in lengths.
