Two of what kind of animal were launched on a rocket in 1959 by the USSR?

Two dogs, named Belka and Strelka, were launched on a rocket by the USSR in 1959. They became the first living beings to safely return to Earth after orbiting the planet.


What happened to to the second stage when the first stage uses up its fuel?

If things work as planned, the first stage uses up its fuel, and falls away, while the engines of the second stage ignite and push the rocket into a higher trajectory. This point in the launch sequence is called (predictably enough!) "staging", and it is at this point that things generally go terribly wrong if they are going to. You rarely hear of a rocket in which the second stage works properly and then the THIRD stage fails. When the fuel of the second stage is exhausted, then it, too, falls away while the third stage pushes the rocket into its final orbit, or off into the solar system. This "stages falling away" part is why the USA launches its rockets from Cape Canaveral in Florida; the discarded stages fall harmlessly into the Atlantic Ocean.


What are some examples of flowers that grow on the beach?

Some examples of flowers that grow on the beach include beach morning glory, sea rocket, and beach sunflower.


Should there be more time for school lunches?

Yes because after a rocket ship lands on jupiter, there is a minnimum amount of air to get into the childrens systems causing a rip in the space time continuem and leaving a pile of crap all over the floor.


How is the temperature of a substance related to attraction between molecules and its states?

Gases have the most kinetic energy and the least attraction exists between its molecules. Liquids have the middle amount of kinetic energy and middle attraction. Solids have the least kinetic energy and most attraction exists between its particles. The answer above isn't totally accurate, although it is mostly right. However, the attraction between molecules DOES NOT CHANGE WITH TEMPERATURE. What changes is how much energy the atoms/molecules have to overcome that attraction. The higher the temperature, the more energy the molecules have, and therefore the less the attractive force between will actually pull them together. As an example, consider a space rocket. The force of gravity on the rocket is constant. However, when the rocket is launched, the rocket's engines overcome the attractive force of gravity (by accelerating in the opposite direction) and therefore the rocket takes off. The attractive force doesn't change -- but the rocket's engines are more powerful than that attraction. In the same way, the increased temperature doesn't change the attraction, but it allows the molecules to overcome it. Other example. Image you are rolling down a hill on a bicycle. In the middle of the downhill, there is a rise. Because you have speed from going downhill, this slight uphill section doesn't stop you. However, the slight uphill is still there! It just doesn't stop you because you are already going fast. But it still affects you.
