[quote=\"isetan\"]I dd got a question from her teacher for weekend hw.


If a rocket runs out of fuel in the space, will the rocket stops moving or still moves towards the direction of nearest planet due to magnetic attraction?

Can anyone ans? Thanks.

.....

If at that time the rocket is near earth or another planet and is attracted by the gravitational force of earth or that planet, this attractive force will then pull the rocket to the centre of earth or that planet.

If there is no planet nearby, the rocket will continue to move straight ahead at a constant speed until it enters the gravitational field of a planet and will then be pulled to the centre of that planet.

I don't think the force of attraction by a planet is magnetic force (as stated by the teacher). If I remember correctly, it should be gravitational force.

Hope it is of help.

Question help!

In what ways does fish depend on plants and plants depend on fish for survival?
My answer is likely fish need oxygen produced by plants and plants needs carbon dioxide by fish.
But my tutor said it can still add on some, she will not help me ,can you help!

Hi

Great, you’re a lucky girl as not all students have access to tuition.

I recall having seen a popular question on interdependence of plants and animals in a terrarium.

Some pointers from the Science guide and textbooks.

Green plants provide oxygen for the animals when they photosynthesise. Animals breathe out carbon dioxide that the plants need for photosynthesis. Some animals find shelter or feed on plants. At the same time, the animals’ wastes act as fertilisers to help the plants grow.

Hi

Beaker G has a constant rate of evaporation as its exposed area doesn’t change throughout the duration of the experiment.

However as beaker H is titled at an angle, its exposed area decreases as water evaporates from the beaker. Hence, its exposed surface area changes during the duration of the experiment. Thus the duration of the experiment affects the results.
