Two rockets are flying in the same direction and are side by side at the instant their retrorockets fire. rocket a has an initial velocity of +6500 m/s, while rocket b has an initial velocity of +8700 m/s. after a time t both rockets are again side by side, the displacement of each being zero. the acceleration of rocket a is -13 m/s2. what is the acceleration of rocket b?

The acceleration of rocket B is -17.4 m/s².

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity of rocket A = 6500 m/s

Final velocity of rocket B = 8700 m/s

Acceleration of rocket A = -13 m/s²

Displacement of both rocket is zero.

We need to calculate the time of rocket A

Using equation of motion

Put the value into the formula

We need to calculate the acceleration of rocket B

Using equation of motion

Put the value in the formula

Hence, The acceleration of rocket B is -17.4 m/s².

waves moving from a fast medium to a slow medium will experience a reflection as light travels more slowly than red light. total internal reflection occurs when the critical angle is.
