A rocket is propelled forward as very high speed gases are ejected out of its back. Which one of the following is the best explanation as to why the rocket is propelled forward? The high speed gases push on the rocket as they are ejected and propel it forward. B) The rocket is propelled forward because both energy and momentum must be conserved. The rocket is propelled forward due to the conservation of momentum. Because the gases are pushing against the air, the air propels the rocket forward.

The following question concerns a collision in outer space, far enough from any planets so that the external forces can be considered as negligible. An unmanned spacecraft, having mass 1,500,000 kg and speed 25,000 km/hr collides with a small meteor, having mass 3,000 kg and speed 2,100 km/hr, in the Kuiper belt. a. Prior to the collision, what are the total kinetic energy and total momentum? b. Assuming a head-on collision, in which the meteor becomes lodged into the spacecraft’s body and the two objects move off together, what are the total kinetic energy and momentum after the collision? c. If instead of getting lodged into the spacecraft, the meteor bounced off, would the change in the space craft’s momentum be larger or smaller, or is there not enough information to tell? Explain.
Question Particle A and particle B are held together with a compressed spring between them. When they are released, the spring pushes them apart, and they then fly off in opposite directions, free of the spring. The mass of A is 7.00 times the mass of B, and the energy stored in the spring was 88 J. Assume that the spring has negligible mass and that all its stored energy is transferred to the particles. Part (a) Once that transfer is complete, what is the kinetic energy of particle A? Part (b) (b) Once that transfer is complete, what is the kinetic energy of particle B?
