How do electromagnetic waves violate the philosophical underpinnings of the Newtonian universe?
A) All Newtonian forces are contact forces, whereas electromagnetic forces are exerted at a distance.
B) Actually, electromagnetic waves do not violate any aspect of the Newtonian universe.
C) The Newtonian principle of conservation of energy is violated by electromagnetic waves.
D) The Newtonian universe is made of material particles, whereas electromagnetic waves are not.
E) The Newtonian universe is predictable, and electromagnetic waves cause the universe to be unpredictable.
Question 2
A toy rocket is launched vertically from ground level at time t = 0.00 s. The rocket engine provides constant upward acceleration during the burn phase.
At the instant of engine burnout, the rocket has risen to 64 m and acquired an upward velocity of 60 m/s. The rocket continues to rise with insignificant air resistance in unpowered flight, reaches maximum height, and falls back to the ground. The time interval during which the rocket engine provided the upward acceleration, is closest to
A) 2.1 s.
B) 2.3 s.
C) 1.9 s.
D) 1.7 s.
E) 1.5 s.
