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.

How many seconds will it take for a the International Space Station to travel 450 km at a rate of 100 m/s?
SVEN [57.7K]

Time = (distance) / (speed)

<em></em>

Time = (450 km) / (100 m/s)

Time = (450,000 m) / (100 m/s)

Time = <em>4500 seconds </em>(that's 75 minutes)

Note:

This is about HALF the speed of the passenger jet you fly in when you go to visit Grandma for Christmas.

If the International Space Station flew at this speed, it would immediately go ker-PLUNK into the ocean.

The speed of the International Space Station in its orbit is more like 3,100 m/s, not 100 m/s.

A spring has a equilibrium length of 10.0 cm. When a force of 40.0 N is applied to the spring, the spring has a length of 14.0 c
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

The value of the spring constant of this spring is 1000 N/m

Explanation:

Given;

equilibrium length of the spring, L = 10.0 cm

new length of the spring, L₀ = 14 cm

applied force on the spring, F = 40 N

extension of the spring due to applied force, e = L₀ - L = 14 cm - 10 cm = 4 cm

From Hook's law

Force applied to a spring is directly proportional to the extension produced, provided the elastic limit is not exceeded.

F ∝ e

F = ke

where;

k is the spring constant

k = F / e

k = 40 / 0.04

k = 1000 N/m

Therefore, the value of the spring constant of this spring is 1000 N/m
