What is a partial and total lunar eclipse?

Physics
1 answer:
Minchanka [31]2 years ago
7 0

Partial Lunar Eclipse:

A partial lunar eclipse is when the earth gets between the Sun and Moon. However, all three bodies are not in alignment meaning we are able to see some more like part of the moon's surface as it moves in route of the Earth's shadow.

Total Lunar Eclipse:

The three celestial bodies are perfectly aligned which allows for the earth to completely block the sun's rays from hitting/reaching the moon. The sun is positions is in back of the Earth which then causes the shadow of the earth to be cast on the Moon covering the moon completely. When that happens you get the phenomenon called a total lunar eclipse.

Hopefully this helped and good luck.

A rock is thrown with a force of 500 N and an acceleration is 75 m/s^2. What is its mass?
artcher [175]

Answer:

We conclude that the mass of a rock with a force of 500 N and an acceleration of 75 m/s² is 6.7 kg.

Hence, option D is correct.

Explanation:

Given

  • Force F = 500 N
  • Acceleration a = 75 m/s²

To determine

Mass m = ?

Important Tip:

  • The mass of a rock can be found using the formula F = ma

Using the formula

F = ma

where

  • F is the force (N)
  • m is the mass (kg)
  • a is the acceleration (m/s²)

now substituting F = 500, and a = 75 m/s² in the formula

F = ma

500 = m(75)

switch sides

m\left(75\right)=500

Divide both sides by 75

\frac{m\cdot \:75}{75}=\frac{500}{75}

simplify

m=\frac{20}{3}

m=6.7 kg

Therefore, we conclude that the mass of a rock with a force of 500 N and an acceleration of 75 m/s² is 6.7 kg.

Hence, option D is correct.

A vehicle is moving with 20m/s towards the east and another is moving 15m/s towards the west​
just olya [345]

Answer:

5 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

A vehicle is moving with 20m/s towards the east and another is moving 15m/s towards the west​.

It is assumed to find the resultant velocity of the vehicle. Let east side is positive and west is negative. So,

v=v_1+v_2\\\\=20+(-15)\\\\=5\ m/s

Hence, the resultant velocity of the vehicle is equal to 5 m/s.
