rusak2 [61]3 years ago
3 0

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The moon doesn’t change shape on its own.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Shapes of moon that we observe is based on the different perspectives of view from the earth and position of moon with respect to the sun. The changes arise due to the rotation of earth on its own axis as well as the revolution of moon on its orbit. The moon doesn’t have any light of its own.

It just reflects off the light from the sun. Due to tidal locking phenomenon one face of the moon permanently faces the sun. Because of the changes in position of moon with respect to the sun the moon is lighted up variably giving rise to various phases like new moon, full moon, crescent etc.

Consider a projectile launched with an initial velocity of v0 = 120 ft/s, inclined at an angle, θ with the horizontal. Let us as
Natali [406]

Answer:

How to find the maximum height of a projectile?

if α = 90°, then the formula simplifies to: hmax = h + V₀² / (2 * g) and the time of flight is the longest. ...

if α = 45°, then the equation may be written as: ...

if α = 0°, then vertical velocity is equal to 0 (Vy = 0), and that's the case of horizontal projectile motion.

A 40kg dog is sitting on top of a hillside and has a potential energy of 1,568 J. What is the height of the hill side?
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

<h2>39.2 m</h2>

Explanation:

The height of the hill side can be found by using the formula

h =  \frac{p}{m}  \\

p is the potential energy

m is the mass

From the question we have

h =  \frac{1568}{40}  =  \frac{196}{5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>39.2 m</h3>

Hope this helps you
