What we see as "moonlight" is really reflected sunlight. True or False?

Yes, this is true. The only celestial body in the Milky Way universe that produces light is the Sun. It is the sole source of light for all the other planets and satellites. Our moon only 'borrows' light from the Sun. The surface of the moon acts as the mirror at which the Sun's light is reflected.

Which best describes a major characteristic of both volcanoes and earthquakes? they are centered at the poles?
Arturiano [62]
<span>A major characteristic of both volcanoes and earthquakes is that they are located in the same geographic area. Most earthquakes are along the edges of tectonic plates. This is where most volcanoes are too. Most earthquakes directly beneath a volcano are caused by the movement of magma.</span>

Which scientific law describes the relationship between action and reaction force pairs? Newton's third law of motion Kepler's l
Hitman42 [59]

Newton's third law of motion

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that:

<em>"When an object A exerts a force on an object B (action force), then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction force) on object A"</em>

It is important to note that this law is always valid, even when it seems it is not.

Consider for example the gravitational force that the Earth exerts on your body (= your weight). We can say that this is the action force. It may seems that there is no reaction force in this case. However, this is not true: in fact, your body also exerts an equal and opposite force on the Earth, and this is the reaction force. The reason that explains why we don't notice any effect on Earth due to this force is that the mass of the Earth is much larger than your mass, therefore the acceleration produced on the Earth because of the force you apply is negligible.

It is also important to note that the action-reaction pair of forces always act on two different objects, so they never appear in the same free-body diagram.

8 The diagram shows four identical spheres placed between two wooden blocks on a ruler.
enyata [817]

The diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

<h3>How to calculate the diameter?</h3>

From the diagram, the first sphere on the ruler is at 4cn and the last sphere is at 12cm.

Therefore, the length will be:

= 12 - 4.

= 8cm

The diameter of one sphere will be:

= Length / 4

= 8/4

= 2

Therefore, the diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

Note that the second question wasn't found online.
