1) Describe the motions of the moon relative to the Earth and the sun. Explain how this causes us to see phases of the moon, and

identify these phases by name.
Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

The moon is a natural satellite of the earth, which performs rotational and revolutionary motions simultaneously. As the earth rotates about its axis, the moon rotates round it. But revolves round the Sun, as the earth also revolves round the Sun.

The motion of the moon causes series of its phases. Some major phases of the moon are, new moon, 1st quarter, full moon, and 3rd quarter (last quarter).

Since the moon reflects the light from the Sun, the face of the moon reflecting the light from the Sun changes gradually with respect to its motion.

At new moon, the face of the moon reflect no light. But reflects 100% at full moon. While both 1st and 3rd quarters show partial reflections.

In a semiclassical model of the hydrogen atom, the electron orbits the proton at a distance of 0.053 nm. Part A What is the elec
Bezzdna [24]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

r=0.053 nm=0.053\times 10^{-9} m

1 nm=10^{-9} m

Charge on proton,q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

a.We have to find the electric  potential of the proton at the position of the electron.

We know that the electric potential

V=\frac{kq}{r}

Where k=9\times 10^9

V=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}

V=27.17 V

B.Potential energy of electron,U=\frac{kq_e q_p}{r}

Where

q_e=-1.6\times 10^{-19} c=Charge on electron

q_p=q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C=Charge on proton

Using the formula

U=\frac{9\times 10^9\times (-1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}

U=-4.35\times 10^{-18} J

a force of 25 newtons moves a box a distance of 4 meeters in 5 seconds.the work done on the box is ? NM and the power is. ? nm/
miskamm [114]

Answer:

The work done on the box is 100 Nm

The power is 20 Nm/s

Explanation:

There is a force 25 newtons moves a box a distance of 4 meters in

5 seconds

The work done on the box is the product of the force and the distance

that the box moves ⇒ <em>work = force × distance</em>

The force = 25 newtons

the distance = 4 meters

Work = 25 × 4 = 100 NM

<em>The work done on the box is 100 Nm</em>

<em></em>

The force moves the box 4 meters in 5 seconds

The power is the rate of work

<em>The power = work ÷ time</em>

The work = 100 Nm

The time = 5 seconds

The power = 100 ÷ 5 = 20 Nm/s

<em>The power is 20 Nm/s</em>
