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.

Calculate the mass (in g) of 346 cm³ of polythene. The density of polythene is 0.95 g/cm³. Give your answer to 2 decimal places.
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

M = 328.70g

Explanation:

From the given values:

V = 346 cm³

M of 1 cm³ of Polythene = 0.95g or 95/100g

Solve:

M = <u>(95×346)</u>

10

= <u>3</u><u>2</u><u>8</u><u>7</u><u>0</u>

100

M = 328.70g

3. A car has a mass of 2.50 x 10^3 kg. If the force acting on the car is 7.65 x 10^3 N to the
const2013 [10]

Answer:

3.06m/s² to the east

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of car = 2.5 x 10³kg

Force acting on the car  = 7.65 x 10³N

Unknown:

Acceleration of the car  = ?

Solution:

From Newton's second law of motion:

      Force  = mass x acceleration

   Acceleration  = \frac{Force }{mass}   = \frac{7.65 x 10^{3} }{2.5 x 10^{3} }    = 3.06m/s² to the east

A river 800m wide flows at the rate of 5km/h . A swimmer who can swim at 10km/h in still water wants to cross the river straight
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

At an angle of 30^{\circ}

Explanation:

Assume the river flows from East to West so for the swimmer to cross across it, assume he crosses it from West to East.

The resultant speed will be given by

R= \sqrt {10^{2}-5^{2}=\sqrt {75}\approx 8.66 km/h\\Direction=sin^{-1}\frac {5}{10}\approx 30^{\circ}

A weightlifter raises a 50kg weight to a height of 2m in 2 minutes. What was the power spent by the weightlifter?
belka [17]

Answer:

117.72kW

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m= 50kg

height x = 2m

time taken = 2 minutes= 129 seconds

let us find the work done

WD= force * distance

WD= mgx

WD= 50*9.81*2

WD= 981 Joules

Let us find the power

Power= work * time

Power= 981*120

Power= 117720

Power= 117.72 kW

Hence the power spent is 117.72kW
