A eclipse of the sun can only occur at a new moon when the moon passes between earth and sun. If the moons shadow happens to fall upon earths surface at a time, you'll see some portion of the suns disk covered or aka eclipsed by the moon.. I hope that helps

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

7066kg/m³

Explanation:

The forces in these cases (air and water) are: Fa =mg =ρbVg Fw =(ρb −ρw)Vg where ρw = 1000 kg/m3 is density of water and ρb is density of the block and V is its density. We can find it from this two equations:

Fa /Fw = ρb / (ρb −ρw) ρb = ρw (Fa /Fa −Fw) =1000·(1* 21.2 /21.2 − 18.2)

= 7066kg/m³

Radio waves travel 300,000,000 m/s. The frequency is 101,700,000. ehats the wavelength​
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

we have formula of frequency :

frequency(f)= speed of sound(c)/wavelength(λ)

for wavelength we swipe it with frequency as follows

λ=c/f

λ=300,000,000/101,700,000

λ=2.949

The magnitude of a force vector is 89.6 newtons (N). The x component of this vector is directed along the +x axis and has a magn
insens350 [35]

Answer:

(a) θ = 33.86°

(b) Ay = 49.92 N

Explanation:

You have that the magnitude of a vector is A = 89.6 N

The x component of such a vector is Ax = 74.4 N

(a) To find the angle between the vector and the x axis you use the following formula for the calculation of the x component of a vector:

A_x=Acos\theta       (1)

Ax: x component of vector A

A: magnitude of vector A

θ: angle between vector A and the x axis

You solve the equation (1) for θ, by using the inverse of cosine function:

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{A_x}{A})=cos{-1}(\frac{74.4N}{89.6N})\\\\\theta=33.86\°

the angle between the A vector and the x axis is 33.86°

(b) The y component of the vector is given by:

A_y=Asin\theta\\\\A_y=(89.6N)sin(33.86\°)=49.92N

the y comonent of the vecor is Ay = 49.92 N

A motorist is driving at 20m/s when she sees that a traffic light 200m ahead has just turned red. She knows that this light stay
yuradex [85]

Answer:

5.71428571422 m/s

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity = 20 m/s

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

Time taken = 15-1 = 14 s

Distance traveled in 1 second = 20\times 1=20\ m

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 200-20=20\times 14+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 14^2\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{2(180-20\times14)}{14^2}\\\Rightarrow a=-1.02040816327\ m/s^2

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=20-1.02040816327\times 14\\\Rightarrow v=5.71428571422\ m/s

The speed as she reaches the light at the instant it turns green is 5.71428571422 m/s
