A1400-kg rocket has a net propulsion force of 20 kn (kilonewtons). over a short time period, it uniformly speeds up from an initial velocity of 35 m/s to a final velocity of 50 m/s. assume that the mass of the rocket is constant during this time period and that the net force is along the direction of motion. what is the net work done on the rocket in kilojoules (kj)?

  W = 8.92 10² kJ

Explanation:

For this exercise they give us the strength, we must calculate the distance traveled, for this we need the rocket acceleration let's use Newton's second law

        F = m a

        a = F / m

        a = 20 103/1400

        a = 14.29 m/s²

With kinematics we can find the distance traveled

      ² = v₀² + 2 a x

      x = ( ²-v₀²) / 2 a

      x = (50² -35²) / 2 14.29

      x = 1275 / 28.58

      x = 44.61 m

Let's calculate the work

      W = F.d

The bold is vector; as indicated by the force is in the direction of movement the scalar product is reduced to the ordinary product

     W = F d

     W = 20 10³ 44.61

     W = 8.92 10⁵ J

     W = 8.92 10² kJ

i would think it's food chain

what experimental evidence led scientists to change from the previous model to this one?

a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

the colors of light emitted from heated atoms had very specific energies.

experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions.

cathode rays were bent in the same way whenever a magnet was brought near them.
