The moon clearly exhibits a light and dark portion during most of the month except during full moon. What causes the dark portio

n of any phase to change in size, that is, become either more or less black ?

While rotating around Earth the Moon also rotates around it's axis. These two rotations have almost same duration (27.3 and 27 days respectively). This is the reason why we always see the same side of Moon.

The dark part of a Moon is the part where there is night on the Moon, meaning there is no sunlight visible. This dark part depends on the Moon's position relative to Earth and Sun. The change in size is due to part of Moon-day. Dark part of Moon has night, bright part has day and the boundary has either sunrise or sunset.

Where in the motion is the magnitude of the force from the spring on the object zero? Where in the motion is the magnitude of th
kkurt [141]

<em></em>

Answer:

1. The magnitude of the force from the spring on the object is zero on <em>Equilibrium.</em>

2. The magnitude of the force from the spring on the object is a maximum on <em>The top and bottom.</em>

3. The magnitude of the net force on the object is zero on <em>The Bottom.</em>

4. The magnitude of the force on the object is a maximum on <em>the Top.</em>

Explanation:

<em>1. Because the change in position delta X is zero.</em>

<em>2. Because of delta X.</em>

<em>3. Beacuse, the force of gravity and the force of the spring oppose each other to keep the block at rest, away from the equilibrium position.</em>

<em>4. Because, the force of the spring from compressiom and the force of gravity both act on the mass.</em>

The temperature of water in a beaker is 45°C. What does this measurement represent
andrezito [222]
Based on my information, this would actually be representing "the average kinetic energy of water particles". So, as you take notice that where this temperature is being located, and also, how this would be 45°C, this would make more sense for this to be representing as <span>the average kinetic energy of water particles.</span>

"how do the fundamental laws of physics make manifest that space has 3 dimensions?"
bazaltina [42]
If you are asking for a proof on having at least 3 dimensions in space, you can find the physical proof anywhere in your daily life activities. Just the fact that solids have volumes is a proof already that we live in a three-dimensional space. We can move forwards, backwards, sidewards and in all other directions possible.

When you go right into detail, the fundamental laws governing these proofs are very technical. They have differential equations to show as proof. It is too detailed to discuss here. The important things is that, these fundamental laws are what explains the science in our basic activities and natural phenomena:

*Gravitation and planetary motion
* Translation, rotation, magnetic field, forces
* Integrals of equations:

How an application of atmospheric device work?example siphon​
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

A practical siphon, operating at typical atmospheric pressures and tube heights, works because gravity pulling down on the taller column of liquid leaves reduced pressure at the top of the siphon (formally, hydrostatic pressure when the liquid is not moving).

I hope it's helpful!
