To illustrate the use of a multistage rocket consider the following: (a) A certain rocket carries 60% of its initial mass as fuel. (That is, the mass of fuel is 0.6m 0 .) What is the rocket's final speed, accelerating from rest in free space, if it burns all its fuel in a single stage? Express your answer as a multiple of v ex . (b) Suppose instead it burns the fuel in two stages as follows: In the first stage it burns a mass 0.3m o of fuel. It then jettisons the first-stage fuel tank, which has a mass of 0.1m o , and thenburns the remaining 0.3m 0 of fuel. Find the final speed in this case, assuming the same value of v ex

Frost wedging occurs when water seeps into a crack in a rock, freezes, and causes the crack in the rock to widen. t or f

How do the measurements of charge at the different locations on the sphere compare to each other? the charge measurements are different at all locations on the sphere. the charge measurements are virtually not the same at all locations on the sphere except for the charge at the very top and at the very bottom that are equal. the charge measurements are virtually the same at all locations on the sphere except for the charge at the very top. at the top, the conductive sphere has a small disk that is made of different material. the charge measurements are the same at all locations on the sphere. what happens to the charge on the conductive sphere when it is connected to a source of charge such as the electrostatic voltage source? nothing will happen because no charge goes around the surface of the sphere. the charge on the conductive sphere spreads out over the surface of the sphere; being greater in some specific locations on the sphere. the charge on the conductive sphere spreads out uniformly over the surface of the sphere. the charge on the conductive sphere spreads out non-uniformly over the surface of the sphere.

You have a resistor and a capacitor of unknown values. first, you charge the capacitor and discharge it through the resistor. by monitoring the capacitor voltage on an oscilloscope, you see that the voltage decays to half its initial value in 2.70 miss . you then use the resistor and capacitor to make a low-pass filter. what is the crossover frequency fc?
