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.

For a submarine, identify when it will have the GREATEST buoyant force acting on it. Assume that neither the volume of the subma

lidiya [134]

Answer: a, c, and g

Explanation:

Buoyant Force is an upward force acting on submerged object equal to weight of fluid displaced by the submerged object.

If no part is submerged (V = 0) that is volume. Therefore there is Zero Buoyant Force.

Fully submerged produces greatest buoyant force since greatest amount of fluid was displaced.

Whenever it is fully submerged it will have the greatest buoyant force.

Buoyant Force DOES NOT Depend on Depth

A fully submerged object displaces its volume in fluid

A floating object displaces its weight in fluid.

A 27.0-m steel wire and a 48.0-m copper wire are attached end to end and stretched to a tension of 145 N. Both wires have a radi

algol13

Answer:

The time taken by the wave to travel along the combination of two wires is 458 ms.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of steel wire= 27.0 m

Length of copper wire = 48.0 m

Tension = 145 N

Radius of both wires = 0.450 mm

Density of steel wire $\rho_{s}= 7.86\times10^{3}\ kg/m^{3}$

Density of copper wire $\rho_{c}=8.92\times10^{3}\ kg/m^3$

We need to calculate the linear density of steel wire

Using formula of linear density

$\mu_{s}=\rho_{s}A$

$\mu_{s}=\rho_{s}\times\pi r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$\mu_{s}=7.86\times10^{3}\times\pi\times(0.450\times10^{-3})^2$

$\mu_{s}=5.00\times10^{-3}\ kg/m$

We need to calculate the linear density of copper wire

Using formula of linear density

$\mu_{c}=\rho_{s}A$

$\mu_{c}=\rho_{s}\times\pi r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$\mu_{c}=8.92\times10^{3}\times\pi\times(0.450\times10^{-3})^2$

$\mu_{c}=5.67\times10^{-3}\ kg/m$

We need to calculate the velocity of the wave along the steel wire

Using formula of velocity

$v_{s}=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_{s}}}$

$v_{s}=\sqrt{\dfrac{145}{5.00\times10^{-3}}}$

$v_{s}=170.3\ m/s$

We need to calculate the velocity of the wave along the steel wire

Using formula of velocity

$v_{c}=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_{c}}}$

$v_{c}=\sqrt{\dfrac{145}{5.67\times10^{-3}}}$

$v_{c}=159.9\ m/s$

We need to calculate the time taken by the wave to travel along the combination of two wires

$t=t_{s}+t_{c}$

$t=\dfrac{l_{s}}{v_{s}}+\dfrac{l_{c}}{v_{c}}$

Put the value into the formula

$t=\dfrac{27.0}{170.3}+\dfrac{48.0}{159.9}$

$t=0.458\ sec$

$t=458\ ms$

Hence, The time taken by the wave to travel along the combination of two wires is 458 ms.

Ryan applied a force of 10N and moved a book 30 cm in the direction of the force. How much was the workdone by Ryan?

Xelga [282]

<h2><u>Question</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

Ryan applied a force of 10N and moved a book 30 cm in the direction of the force. How much was the work done by Ryan?

<h2><u>Answer:</u><u>-</u></h2>

<h3>Given,</h3>

=> Force applied by Ryan = 10N

=> Distance covered by the book after applying force = 30 cm

30 cm = 0.3 m (distance)

=> Work done = Force × Distance

=> 10 × 0.3

=> 3 Joules

$\small \boxed{work \: done \: by \: Ryan \: = 3 \: Joules}$
