The mass of a rocket decreases as it burns through its fuel. if the rocket engine produces constant force (thrust), how does the acceleration of the rocket change over time? answers: - it does not chage- it increases- it decreases

it increases-

Explanation:

When the mass of a rocket decreases as it burns through its fuel and the force ( thrust) is constant then by newtons second law of motion

F= ma  here F is constant this means that   ma= constant

⇒ m= F /a    this implies that mass is inversely proportional to  acceleration.

its means when the mass decreases the acceleration must increase. hence the acceleration increases

  distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

  slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

  comparing both the equations

    change in value of y -axis = change in position

  change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.
