The time required for a moon to orbit around the earth is about 27-28 days

In order for lunar eclipse to occur the line that should be formed is:
Sun-Earth-Moon
because earth is making shade on moon

in order for solar eclipse to occur the line is now:
Sun-Moon-Earth
because moon is making a shade on earth (blocking sun = solar eclipse)

Therefore moon needs to make half of its orbit to go from behind the earth to in front of the earth.

28/2 = 14

Answer is 14

You have two golf balls that differ only in their surfaces. one has dimples, while the other is smooth. if you were to drop the
il63 [147K]

Answer: the golf ball with smooth surface would hit the ground first.


Jusitification:


An analysis of forces show two vertical forces acting on the golf balls.


1) one force is the weight (mg) which is vertical downward


2) the other force is the drag force exerted by the air on the golf balls, and it is vertical upward.


3) the drag force opposes the weight, so the acceleration downward is determined by the difference of the weiight and the drag force, until the balls reach the terminal speed (when the drag force equals the weight).


4) the drag force depends on the shape and area of the object falling. Being the surface of one ball smooth implies that the drag force will be less than the one on the other ball.


5) less drag force implies that the terminal velocity of the smooth ball will he higher, ant then it will hit the ground first.
