What is the difference between a total solar eclipse, an annular solar eclipse, and a partial solar eclipse.

hii! In a total eclipse, the disk of the Sun is fully obscured by the Moon. In partial and annular eclipses, only part of the Sun is obscured. ... Total solar eclipses are rare at any particular location because totality exists only along a narrow path on the Earth's surface traced by the Moon's full shadow or umbra.

The total solar eclipse is the eclipse in which the Sun gets completely covered by the Moon and Solar Corona can be seen whereas in case of partial solar eclipse, the Sun is partially covered by the Moon and Solar Corona can’t be seen whereas, in case of annular solar eclipse, the moon is further away from the Earth than in case of Total solar eclipse.

<span>Corona is visible in case of the Total solar eclipse.</span>

When a board with a box on it is slowly tilted to larger and larger angle, common experience shows that the box will at some poi
eimsori [14]

Answer: The force of kinetic friction is smaller than that of static friction, but F_g  remains the same.

Explanation:

The situation is same as when a book is pushed with an increasing force on a table; When the force is low, book doesn't move, until that under a given force starts moving, and then it goes on movement even if the force decreases a bit.

The physical explanation for this, that friction force adopts any value needed to avoid to move the object, till a limit value is achieved, called static friction force, equal to the normal force times the static friction coefficient.

Once in movement, the kinetic friction coefficient replaces the static one , and  in general is lower than the static one, so the force diminishes.

In the case of the box sliding down the board, the force that tries to move the object down the board, is the component of the weight parallel to the board, that can be showed that being equal to the weight times the sinus of the angle of the board with the horizontal, as follows:

F_g = m g sin θ

When θ increases, F_g does the same, so friction force always has the same magnitude than F_g (but opposite direction) so the box doesn't move, till that θ takes a value that produces a F_g equal to static friction force.

Beyond this limit angle, F_g (remaining the same for a given angle) is greater than the kinetic friction force, and the box slides.

In the limit, when θ=90º, sin θ =1⇒ F_g = mg, so the object is in free fall.

What can be inferred when an atom is electrically charged?
Elena-2011 [213]

When an atom becomes electrically charged the number of electrons or protons stops and they are not equal again. The "extra" electron or proton is not balanced by something inside the atom any longer and it starts attracting itself to othet protons or electrons in other atoms.

<h3>What is atomic structure?</h3>

An atomic structure comprises of positively charged nucleus which is surrounded by negatively charged particles called electron and neutron which is neutral charged.

Unlike charges attract each other while like charges repel each other.

Therefore, When an electron is fully charged, the number of electrons will stop to be unequal again.

Which object experiences the greatest gravitational force? A)car B)fire truck C)plane D)human
Svetlanka [38]

Answer: C Plane

Explanation: According to Newton's law, gravitational force is proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

Gravitational force depends on mass. The bigger the mass, the more the magnitude of the gravitational force. Since plane is assume to have the highest mass in the options, we can therefore conclude that plane will experience the highest gravitational force.

A train whistle is heard at 300 Hz as the train approaches town. The train cuts its speed in half as it nears the station, and t
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The speed of the train before and after slowing down is 22.12 m/s and 11.06 m/s, respectively.

Explanation:

We can calculate the speed of the train using the Doppler equation:

f = f_{0}\frac{v + v_{o}}{v - v_{s}}        

Where:

f₀: is the emitted frequency

f: is the frequency heard by the observer  

v: is the speed of the sound = 343 m/s

v_{o}: is the speed of the observer = 0 (it is heard in the town)

v_{s}: is the speed of the source =?

The frequency of the train before slowing down is given by:

f_{b} = f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{b}}}  (1)                  

Now, the frequency of the train after slowing down is:

f_{a} = f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{a}}}   (2)  

Dividing equation (1) by (2) we have:

\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{b}}}}{f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{a}}}}

\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{v - v_{s_{a}}}{v - v_{s_{b}}}   (3)  

Also, we know that the speed of the train when it is slowing down is half the initial speed so:

v_{s_{b}} = 2v_{s_{a}}     (4)

Now, by entering equation (4) into (3) we have:

\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{v - v_{s_{a}}}{v - 2v_{s_{a}}}  

\frac{300 Hz}{290 Hz} = \frac{343 m/s - v_{s_{a}}}{343 m/s - 2v_{s_{a}}}

By solving the above equation for v_{s_{a}} we can find the speed of the train after slowing down:

v_{s_{a}} = 11.06 m/s

Finally, the speed of the train before slowing down is:

v_{s_{b}} = 11.06 m/s*2 = 22.12 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the train before and after slowing down is 22.12 m/s and 11.06 m/s, respectively.                        

I hope it helps you!

In a uranium fission reaction, uranium splits into two smaller atoms and energy. Where did the energy come from?
postnew [5]

Answer: C. Some of uranium's mass is converted into energy, so the smaller atoms have less mass.

Explanation:

From Einstein's mass-energy relation:

E = mc²

Mass and energy are equivalent. Mass can be converted into energy and energy into mass.

When Uranium atoms under go nuclear fission, smaller atoms are formed and huge amount of energy is released. This energy comes from the mass difference of the uranium nuclei and new nuclei formed. This mass converted into energy according to Einstein's equation.
