Answer:

New moon

Explanation:

A solar eclipse can only take place at the phase of new moon, when the moon passes directly between the sun and Earth and its shadows fall upon Earth's surface.

A solar eclipse happens when the moon is perfectly aligned between the Earth and the Sun, thus obscuring it.

If the moon is between the Earth and the Sun, the far side of the moon is lighted, and thus you have a new moon.

Determine the kinetic energy of a 2000 kg roller coaster car that is moving at the speed of 10 ms

kondaur [170]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 100,000 \ Joules}}$

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is energy due to motion. The formula is half the product of mass and velocity squared.

$E_k= \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

The mass of the roller coaster car is 2000 kilograms and the car is moving 10 meters per second.

m= 2000 kg
s= 10 m/s

Substitute these values into the formula.

$E_k= \frac{1}{2} (2000 \ kg ) \times (10 \ m/s)^2$

Solve the exponent.

(10 m/s)²= 10 m/s * 10 m/s= 100 m²/s²

$E_k= \frac{1}{2} (2000 \ kg ) \times (100 \ m^2/s^2)$

Multiply the first two numbers together.

$E_k= 1000 \ kg \times (100 \ m^2/s^2)$

Multiply again.

$E_k= 100,000 \ kg*m^2/s^2$

1 kilogram square meter per square second is equal to 1 Joule.
Our answer of 100,000 kg*m²/s² is equal to 100,000 Joules.

$E_k= 100,000 \ J$

The roller coaster car has <u>100,000 Joules</u> of kinetic energy.

A 20.0-N weight slides down a rough inclined plane which makes an angle of 30 degree with the horizontal. The weight starts from

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

$1270.64\ \text{J}$

Explanation:

m = Mass of object = $\dfrac{mg}{g}$

mg = Weight of object = 20 N

g = Acceleration due to gravity = $9.81\ \text{m/s}^2$

v = Final velocity = 15 m/s

u = Initial velocity = 0

d = Distance moved by the object = 150 m

$\theta$ = Angle of slope = $30^{\circ}$

f = Force of friction

fd = Work done against friction

The force balance of the system is

$\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)=(mg\sin\theta-f)d\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mg\sin\theta d-fd\\\Rightarrow fd=mg\sin\theta d-\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow fd=20\times \sin 30^{\circ}\times 150-\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{20}{9.81}\times 15^2\\\Rightarrow fd=1270.64\ \text{J}$

The work done against friction is $1270.64\ \text{J}$ .
