Answer:

A. The closest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth

Explanation:

The perigee is defined as the closest point in the orbit of an object (such as a satellite) from the centre of the Earth. In this case, the Earth's satellite is the Moon, so the perigee is defined as the closest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth. so option A is the correct one.

Let's see instead the names of the other options:

B. The farthest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth  --> this point is called apogee

C. The closest point in Earth's orbit of the Sun  --> this point is called perihelion

D. The Sun's orbit that is closest to the Moon --> this point has no specific name

Some laptops contain a second battery. what is this battery called
Phoenix [80]
I believe this battery is called Sheet battery.
Sheet battery is a flexible, ultra thin energy storage and production device formed by combining nano tubes with a conventional sheet of cellulose based paper. It acts as both a high-energy battery and super-capacitor, combining two components that are separate in traditional electronics.

A 100 mH inductor whose windings have a resistance of 6.0 Ω is connected across a 12 Vbattery having an internal resistance of 3
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The store energy in the inductor is 0.088 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Inductor = 100 mH

Resistance = 6.0 Ω

Voltage = 12 V

Internal resistance = 3.0 Ω

We need to calculate the current

Using ohm's law

V = IR

I=\dfrac{V}{R+r}

Put the value into the formula

I=\dfrac{12}{6.0+3.0}

I=1.33\ A

We need to calculate the store energy in the inductor

U=\dfrac{1}{2}LI^2

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times100\times10^{-3}\times(1.33)^2

U=0.088\ J

Hence, The store energy in the inductor is 0.088 J

1. A cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds. What is his<br>acceleration?​
Lapatulllka [165]

The cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds with an acceleration of 3 m/s².

Answer:

Explanation:

Acceleration exerted by an object is the measure of change in speed or velocity of that object with respect to time. So the initial and final velocities play a major role in determining the acceleration of the cyclist. As here the initial velocity of the cyclist is the speed at rest and that is given as 0 m/s. Then after 3 seconds, the velocity of the cyclist changes to 9 m/s.

Then acceleration = change in velocity/Time.

Acceleration = \frac{Change in velocity}{Time taken}

Acceleration = (9-0)/3=9/3=3 m/s².

So the cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds with an acceleration of 3 m/s².
