Answer:

D. The position of the first quarter moon and third quarter moon have been interchanged.    

Explanation:

Phases of moon are the shapes of illuminated portion of the moon that is visible from the earth.

New moon occurs when the moon comes between the earth and the sun. The lit portion faces away from the earth.

After new moon, waxing crescent phase occurs followed by first quarter. In the first quarter, half moon is visible.

Waxing gibbous occurs which is when more than half and less than full face of the moon is visible. This is followed by full moon when earth comes between moon and the sun.

The waning gibbous phase is visible for next few days till the third quarter phase. Then waning crescent phase and finally new moon again.

In the given diagram made by Melanie, the position of first quarter and third quarter are wrong and must be interchanged.

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

1) p₀ = 45000 N / s ,   p₀ '= 1800 , b)  I = -45000 N s ,  I = 1800 Ns

Explanation:

Impulse equals the change in momentum

         I = Δp

1) the initial moment of the car

         p₀ = M v

          p₀ = 1500 30

          p₀ = 45000 N / s

the change at the moment is

          Δp = 45000

because the end the car is stopped

moment of the person

          P₀ ’= m v

         p₀ '= 60 30

          p₀ '= 1800

          D₀ '= 1800

2) of the momentum change impulse ratio

        car

              I =  Δp

              I = -45000 N s

        person

              I = Δpo '

              I = 1800 Ns

3) the object that give the momentum to stop the wall motoring

The person is stopped by the impulse given by the car

a) This area is the one that absorbs most of the vehicle impulse

be) If using a safety painter, the time during which the greater force will act, therefore the lessons decrease

c) The air bag helps reduction in the speed of the person relatively quickly.

Marrrta [24]
Efficiency- How much energy is wasted and how much useful energy is produced
Money- How expensive to install them
Location- She has to consider the location where she places them so that there is enough sunlight and light energy for the solar panels, obviously she should have solar panels if the location receives a sufficient amount of sunlight

What is the speed of a wave in (m/s) with a 5 meter wavelength and a period of 20 seconds?
arlik [135]

Answer: 0.25 m/s

Explanation:  Speed = wavelengt · frequency  

v = λf   and frequency is 1/period  f = 1/T

Then v = λ/T = 5 m / 20 s = 0.25 m/s
