What is a partial and total lunar eclipse?

Physics
1 answer:
Minchanka [31]3 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.

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

minimum length of a surface crack is 18.3 mm

Explanation:

Given data

plane strain fracture toughness K = 82.4 MPa m1/2

stress σ = 345 MPa

Y = 1

to find out

the minimum length of a surface crack

solution

we will calculate length by this formula

length = 1/π ( K / σ Y)²

put all value

length = 1/π ( K / σ Y)²

length = 1/π ( 82.4 10^{3/2} / 345× 1)²

length = 18.3 mm

minimum length of a surface crack is 18.3 mm

When conduction electrons pass through a device with resistance, which describes their energy?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

a) their potential energy increases.

Explanation:

Ohm's Law is

R= V/I

Where R= Resistance

V= potential difference or potential energy

I= current or conduction electron flow rate

Clearly R and V are directly proportional i-e Potential energy increases with resistance.

What happens in a global convection cell? apex​
zysi [14]

Answer:

In a global convection cell less –dense air at the equator rises and flows towards the poles. And from pole, the dense air sinks down and flows back towards the equator.... This movement of air is also supported by the Earth's rotation known as Coriolis Effect.
