Arocket experiences a constant force even as the amount of fuel in its fuel tanks decreases. what happens to the acceleration of the rocket as it runs out of fuel? a - the acceleration decreases because the mass increases. b - the acceleration increases because the mass increases. c - the acceleration decreases because the mass decreases. d - the acceleration increases because the mass decreases.

We can answer this question by looking at Newton's second law:

which can be rewritten as

where F is the force experienced by the rocket, m is its mass, a is its acceleration. In the rocket's case, the mass of the rocket decreases (because the fuel in the tank decreases), while the force remains constant, so the ratio F/m increases, and therefore the acceleration of the rocket increases.

Therefore, the correct answer is

D - The acceleration increases because the mass decreases.

i. like it i'm gonna edit it tomorrow

i think it because equal matrices have equal dimensions, only square matrices can be symmetric. for all indices and . every square diagonal matrix is symmetric, since all off-diagonal elements are zero. in linear algebra, a real symmetric matrix represents a self-adjoint operator over a real inner product space.
