Answer:

D

Explanation:

The Moon passes slightly above or below the line between the Sun and the Earth because of its tilted orbit. I also had it for my USA Test Prep

Because the tip of the moon's shadow ... the area of "totality" ... is never more than a couple hundred miles across, It never covers a single place for more than 7 minutes, and can never stay on the Earth's surface for more than a few hours altogether during one eclipse.

If you're not inside that small area, you don't see a total eclipse.

When an object in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, its____________ is also at a maximum.
Ivan

When an object in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, its <u>acceleration</u> is also at a maximum.

<u><em>Reason</em></u><em>: The speed is zero when the simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, however, the acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. The velocity reverses the direction at that point therefore its rate of change is maximum at that moment. thus the acceleration is at its maximum at this point</em>

Hope that helps!

Two resistors, A and B, are connected in series to a 6.0 V battery. A voltmeter connected across resistor A measures a potential
mestny [16]

Answer:

Resistance of resistor A = 6.0 Ω and resistance of resistor B = 3.0 Ω

Explanation:

When the two resistors are in series, let V₁ = voltage in resistor A and R₁ = resistance of resistor A and V₂ = voltage in resistor B and R₂ = resistance of resistor B.

Given that V₁ + V₂ = 6.0 V and V₁ = 4.0 V,

V₂ = 6.0 V - V₁ = 6.0 V - 4.0 V = 2.0 V

Also, let the current in series be I.

So, V₁ = IR₁ and V₂ = IR₂

I = V₁/R₁ and I = V₂/R₂

equating both expressions, we have

V₁/R₁ = V₂/R₂

4.0 V/R₁ = 2.0 V/R₂

dividing through by 2.0 V, we have

2/R₁ = 1/R₂

taking the reciprocal, we have

R₂ = R₁/2

R₁ = 2R₂

From the parallel connection, let V₁ = voltage in resistor A and R₁ = resistance of resistor A and V₂ = voltage in resistor B and R₂ = resistance of resistor B. Since it is parallel, V₁ = V₂ = V = 6.0 V

Also, V₂ = I₂R₂ where I₂ = current in resistor B = 2.0 A and R₂ = resistance of resistor B

So, R₂ = V₂/I₂

= 6.0 V/2.0 A

= 3.0 Ω

R₁ = 2R₂

= 2(3.0 Ω)

= 6.0 Ω

So, resistance of resistor A = 6.0 Ω and resistance of resistor B = 3.0 Ω

Which formula describes acceleration?<br><br> m/s^2<br><br><br> m/s<br><br><br> s/m<br><br><br> m2
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

m/s^2

Explanation:

Force = mass × acceleration

kgm/s^2 = kg × acceleration

where acceleration = Force ÷ mass

= kg m/s^2 ÷ kg

:Acceleration = m/s^2

After the big bang, atoms in gas clouds experienced a greater gravitational pull to each other than atoms in other regions of th
allsm [11]
Answer:
These are the two statements with scientific facts that explain the described phenomenon
<span>
Gravitation between two objects increases when the distance between them decreases.</span>

When the mass of an object increases, its gravitational pull also increases.

Justification:

Those two facts are represented in the Universal Law of Gravity discovered by the scientific Sir Isaac Newton (1642 to 1727) and published in his book <span>Philosophiae naturalis principia mathematica.</span>

That law is represented by the equation:

F = G × m₁ × m₂ / d²

The product of the two masses on the numerator accounts for the fact that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of the masses, which is that as the masses increase the attraction also increase.

The term d² (square of the distance that separates the objects) in the denominator accounts for the fact that the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance; that is as the separation of the objects increase the gravitational force decrease.
