Freddy Frog drops vertically from a tree onto a horizontally moving skateboard. The skateboard slows. Give two reasons for this, one in terms of a horizontal friction force between Freddy’s feet and the skateboard, and one in terms of momentum conservation.
A model rocket sits on the launch pad until its fuel is ignited, blasting the rocket upward. During the short time of blast off, as the ignited fuel goes down, the rocket goes up because:
the fuel pushes on the ground.
air friction pushes on the escaping fuel.
the downward force of gravity is less than the downward momentum of the fuel.
of none of the above reasons.
