Answer:  C) We always see the same side of the Moon from Earth

Explanation:    

                       The moon is a natural satellite of earth which orbits around the earth with an orbital period (time to complete one revolution ) of around 27 days . Along with this the moon also rotates about its own axis with period of rotation 27 days which is approximately same as the period of revolution . Due to this coincidence that the amount of time the Moon takes to complete one rotation and one revolution are nearly identical , we always see the same side of the Moon from Earth .

           If the Moon did not rotate on itself or did so at a different rate, it would gradually show its entire surface: the visible side and the hidden side. The coincidence between both periods (the rotation and orbital periods) is known as synchronous rotation.

What causes clouds of dust and gas to form a protostar
just olya [345]
<h2>Answer: Gravitational attraction </h2>

Gravity force causes the clouds of dust and gas to form a protostar. As this <u>attraction force</u> is responsible for gathering and compressing the existing elements in the cloud of gas and dust, heating them during this process.

Then, when the amount of material accumulated by gravitational contraction is large enough, and the temperature and pressure reached high enough, the <u>nuclear fusion</u> process will begin.

To understand it better: The hydrogen nuclei will begin to fuse, generating helium nuclei in the process and releasing huge amounts of energy.

It should be noted that the protostars radiate half of the energy contributed by the gravitational collapse and the other half is invested in heating its core.

Qué ocurre con el espectro cuando se interpone el celofán de colores?
Travka [436]

Answer: You will only see the color that cellophane lets through

Explanation:

Let's begin by the fact the whole electromagnetic spectrum is known as "white light", which is composed by a range of colors (wavelengths).

Now, if we have a source with white light (the Sun, for example) and we interpose a cellophane of any color (let's choose red), this cellophane will act as a filter and will only let pass the color of the cellophane.

This is because the filter will absorb the other colors of the spectrum.
