A rocket is launched straight up with constant acceleration. Four seconds after liftoff, a bolt falls off the side of the rocket

. The bolt hits the ground 6.30 seconds later. What is the acceleration of the rocket?

The constant acceleration of a rocket launched upward, calculated knowing that the time it takes for a bolt that falls off the side of the rocker was 6.30 seconds, is 5.68 m/s².                                                                                      

When the rocket is launched straight up with constant acceleration, the acceleration of the rocket is given by:

v_{f_{r}} = v_{i_{r}} + at    

Where:                                                              

v_{f_{r}}: is the final velocity of the rocket

v_{i_{r}}: is the initial velocity of the rocket = 0

a: is the acceleration

t: is the time

After 4 seconds, the <u>final speed of the rocket</u> will be the <u>initial speed of the bolt</u>, so:                                              

v_{f_{r}} = v_{i_{b}} = at = 4a  

When the bolt falls off the side of the rocket, the bolt hits the ground 6.30 seconds later.        

The<u> initial height of the bolt</u> will be the <u>final height of the rocket</u>, and vice-versa. With this, we can take the final height of the bolt as zero.                        

y_{f_{b}} = y_{i_{b}} + v_{i_{b}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

0 = y_{i_{b}} + v_{i_{b}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

y_{i_{b}} = \frac{1}{2}9.81*(6.30)^{2} - 4a*6.30 = 194.7 - 25.2a

Now, as we said above, this height (of the bolt) will be the final height of the rocket, so:

y_{f_{r}} = y_{i_{r}} + v_{i_{r}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

194.7 - 25.2a = 0 + 0 - \frac{1}{2}a(4)^{2}    

a = \frac{194.7}{33.2} = 5.86 m/s^{2}    

   

Therefore, the acceleration of the rocket is 5.68 m/s².

I hope it helps you!

If a particle with a charge of +4.3 × 10−18 C is attracted to another particle by a force of 6.5 × 10−8 N, what is the magnitude
AveGali [126]

Answer: 1.5×10^10 N/C

Explanation:

E= F/q

Where E= magnitude of the electric field

F= force of attraction

q= charge of the given body

Given F= 6.5×10^-8 N

q= 4.3× 10^-18 C

Therefore, E = 6.5×10 ^-8/ 4.3×10^-18

E = 1.5×10^10 N/C

Compare the frequency, wavelength, and radiant energy of yellow visible light to that of purple visible light.
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Violet has a higher frequency (approximately 7.5×1014 Hz 7.5 × 10 14 Hz ) than red light (approximately 4.3×1014 Hz 4.3 × 10 14 Hz ). Since the speed of both waves is the same, we infer that violet has a shorter wavelength (400 nm ) than red (700 nm ).

In order to place a satellite into orbit, it requires enough fuel to supply the necessary mechanical energy. Into what types of
nexus9112 [7]

When a satellite is revolving into the orbit around a planet then we can say

net centripetal force on the satellite is due to gravitational attraction force of the planet, so we will have

F_g = F_c

\frac{GM_pM_s}{r^2} = \frac{M_s v^2}{r}

now we can say that kinetic energy of satellite is  given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}M_s v^2

KE = \frac{GM_sM_p}{2r}

also we know that since satellite is in gravitational field of the planet so here it must have some gravitational potential energy in it

so we will have

U = -\frac{GM_sM_p}{r}

so we can say that energy from the fuel is converted into kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy of the satellite

Calculate the number of electrons in a small, electrically neutral silver pin that has a mass of 7.1 g. Silver has 47 electrons
Assoli18 [71]

<u>Answer:</u> The number of electrons in given amount of silver are 1.87\times 10^{24}

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

We are given:

Given mass of silver = 7.1 g

Molar mass of silver = 107.87 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of silver}=\frac{7.1g}{107.87g/mol}=0.066mol

Number of electrons in 1 atom of silver = 47

According to mole concept:

1 mole of an element contains 6.022\times 10^{23} number of particles

So, 0.066 moles of silver will contain = -(0.066\times 47\times 6.022\times 10^{23})=1.87\times 10^{24} number of electrons

Hence, the number of electrons in given amount of silver are 1.87\times 10^{24}
