Answer:

There will always be a shadow created by the sun shining on the moon.

When the earth is in this shadow the result is a solar eclipse,

If an observer on earth can see none of the sun then this is called a total eclipse of the sun, otherwise it will be a partial ecliplse of the sun.

Note: A solar eclipse can only occur during a "new" moon at which time the moon is not visible to an observer on earth because of the light of the sun.

Use the kinetic-molecular theory to explain the compression and expansion of gases.
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

According to the <u>kinetic-molecular theory of gases</u>, gases are composed of atoms and molecules (particles), where the distance among these elements is very large compared to their own size, therefore the total volume occupied by these particles is only a small part of the total volume occupied by the whole gas.

In other words: a gas has enough empty spaces in its total volume, therefore low density, which gives it the property of being highly compressible.

In this same sense, the kinetic-molecular theory of gases starts from the <u>first principle of thermodynamics</u>, establishing a relationship between <u>heat</u> and movement, since all material is composed of particles that are in motion (to a certain extent , depending on the state of matter), and in the case of gases the movement is greater, which is a strong indication of heat (thermal energy).

Now, gases can change their volume in two ways:

-By a change in temperature (heat transfer).

-By a change of pressure

So, this change or variation in volume is related to the work the gas does to change from an initial volume to a final volume.

Then, if in this process the volume decreases, it is said that the gas has been compressed (<u>compression</u> work); but if, on the contrary, the volume increases, the gas will have expanded <u>(expansion work). </u>

In this way, with the increase of the temperature of the gas, it is expanded by the increase of the kinetic energy of its molecules, but if an external pressure is applied it is compressed.

Lien uses a spring scale to pull a block toward the right across the lab table. The scale reads 8 N. Which force should Lien con
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

<h2>Frictional force</h2>

Explanation:

For the block placed on the table, there are several force acting on the body along the horizontal and vertical axis. All this forces tends to keep the body in a state of equilibrium.The forces acting along the horizontal are the moving force (Fm) and the frictional force (Ff).

Frictional force are forces that acts opposite to the force that causes the body to move (moving force).

If Lien uses a spring scale to pull a block toward the right across the lab table and the scale reads 8 N, this means that the force that causes the body to move is the 8N force (moving force).

Taking the sum of force along the horizontal;

\sum fx = ma_x

Since the body is static, max = 0

\sum fx = 0\\fm+(-Ff)= 0

Note that the frictional force acts is the force of opposition acting in the negative x direction.

fm = 0+Ff\\fm = Ff

Since Fm = 8N, Ff will also be equal to 8N.

Based on the above proof, Lien can also conclude that 8 N is a frictional force

A bus travels north on some busy city streets for 2.5 km, and a trip
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

V = 4.63 m/s

V = 11.31 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

The distance traveled by the bus, towards north, d = 2.5 km

                                                                                     = 2500 m

The time taken by the trip is, t = 9 min

                                                  = 540 s

The velocity of the bus,

                                       V = d / t

                                           = 2500 / 540

                                          = 4.63 m/s

At another  point, the bus travels at a constant speed of v = 18 m/s

Therefore the velocity becomes

                                                V = (4.63 + 18)/2

                                                   = 11.31 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the  bus, V = 11.31 m/s
