Does the moon actually change shape as it revolves/rotates around the Earth? Explain your answer

Physics
1 answer:
rusak2 [61]4 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.

3.Three resistors of 25.0Ω, 30.0Ω, and 40.0Ω are in a series circuit with a 6.0-volt battery. What is the current in the circuit
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Current = 0.063 Amperes

Explanation:

Let the three resistors be R1, R2, and R3 respectively.

Given the following data;

R1 = 25.0Ω,

R2 = 30.0Ω

R3 = 40.0Ω

Voltage = 6 Volts

First of all, we would determine the equivalent or total resistance;

Total resistance (in series) = R1 + R2 + R3

Total resistance = 25.0Ω + 30.0Ω + 40.0Ω

Total resistance = 95 Ω

Next, we find the current flowing through the circuit;

Voltage = current * resistance

Substituting into the formula, we have;

6 = current * 95

Current = 6/95

Current = 0.063 Amperes

How much force would a 55kg person experience on a roller coaster if they travel through a loop with a radius of 55kg at a speed
Inessa [10]

Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

For a body moving in uniform circular motion, the force acting on it will be <em>centripetal force</em> and its direction is <em>radially inward</em> , pointing to the center.

The radially inward acceleration, or the centripetal acceleration is given by :

                                          a = v² / r

           where v is the speed at which the body is moving and r is the radius of the circle

Given-

m = 55kg

v = 14.1 m/s

r= 55m

We know that F = ma

⇒   F = m (  v²/ r )

⇒ F = 55 x 14.1 x 14.1 / 55

⇒ F =14.1 x 14.1 = 200 N

∴ <em>The force acting is 200 N</em>.

The light bulb transfers electrical energy into light. What is one type of energy that is also generated that is NOT a desired e
zimovet [89]

The old style (incandescent) light bulb converts more energy
into heat than it does into light.  If you're using it mainly as a
source of light, then it's a bummer, and its efficiency is very low. 
BUT ... if you're using an incandescent light bulb as a heater, then
its efficiency is much better.  It all depends on your point of view.
