What is a partial and total lunar eclipse?

Physics

Minchanka [31]3 years ago

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.

Zina [86]

Years of research have demonstrated that rats are intelligent creatures who experience pain and pleasure, care about one another, are able to read the emotions of others, and would assist other rats, even at their own expense.

<h3>Experiments:</h3>

In trials carried out at Brown University in the 1950s, rats were trained to press a lever for food, but they stopped pressing the lever when they noticed that with each press, a rat in an adjacent cage would scream in pain (after experiencing an electric shock).

Rats were trained to press a lever to lower a block that was hanging from a hoist by electric shocks administered by experimenters. A rat was subsequently hoisted into a harness by the experimenters, and according to their notes, "This animal normally shrieked and wriggled sufficiently while dangling, and if it did not, it was jabbed with a sharp pencil until it exhibited indications of discomfort." Even if it wasn't in danger of receiving a shock, a rat watching the scenario from the floor would pull a lever to lower the hapless rodent to safety.

The kinetic energy of an object depends on what?
liraira [26]
It depends on "Potential Energy", the amount energy it could have, the amount depending on certain circumstances, like height or force. This was how traditional and some modern rollercoasters work. As the "conveyer belt" pulls you up, the higher you go, the more potential energy you have. Once you are falling down the hill, you are experiencing "Kinetic Energy". Hope it makes sence.

An apple with a mass of 0.95 kilograms hangs from 3.0 meters above the ground. What is the potential energy of the apple
Vesnalui [34]

As Potential energy =mgh

m= 0.95kg

h=3 meter

g = 9.8 m/sec^2. ( acceleration due to gravity)

So P.E =(0.95)(9.8)(3)kgm^2/s^2

P.E =27.93 joules
