Recently, the media, always trying to make things sound sensational, have started to call totally eclipsed moon "the blood moon.

" Why does the Moon look reddish to us when there is a total lunar eclipse?

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

- One meaning of a "blood moon" is based on its red glow. This blood moon occurs during a total lunar eclipse. During a total lunar eclipse, Earth lines up between the Moon and the Sun. This hides the Moon from the sunlight.

- When this happens, the only light that reaches the Moon's surface is from the edges of the Earth's atmosphere. The air molecules from Earth's atmosphere scatter out most of the blue light. The remaining light reflects onto the Moon's surface with a red glow, making the Moon appear red in the night sky.

Answer:

–77867 m/s/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 34.5 m/s

Final velocity (v) = –23.9 m/s

Time (t) = 0.00075 s

Acceleration (a) =?

Acceleration is simply defined as the rate of change of velocity with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Acceleration = (final velocity – Initial velocity) /time

a = (v – u) / t

With the above formula, we can obtain acceleration of the ball as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 34.5 m/s

Final velocity (v) = –23.9 m/s

Time (t) = 0.00075 s

Acceleration (a) =?

a = (v – u) / t

a = (–23.9 – 34.5) / 0.00075

a = –58.4 / 0.00075

a = –77867 m/s/s

Thus, the acceleration of the ball is –77867 m/s/s.

Two objects 5 kg and 7 kg are attached to the end of inextensible string which passes over frictionless pulley
Bumek [7]

Answer:

ans:

tenson(T) = 20 N

acceleration (a) = 2.86 m/s

Explanation:

T + mg = Mg

T = Mg - mg

T = g( M - m )

T = 10× ( 7-5 )

T = 20 N

again;

T = 20

Ma = 20

a = 20 / 7

= 2.86 m/s

In a heat engine if 1000 j of heat enters the system the piston does 500 j of work, what is the final internal energy of the sys
son4ous [18]

Answer:

2500 J

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the first law of thermodynamics:

\Delta U =U_f - U_i =Q-W

where

Uf is the final internal energy of the system

Ui is the initial internal energy

Q is the heat added to the system

W is the work done by the system

In this problem, we have:

Q = +1000 J (heat that enters the system)

W = +500 J (work done by the system)

Ui = 2000 J (initial internal energy)

Using these numbers, we can re-arrange the equation to calculate the final internal energy:

U_f = U_i + Q-W=2000 J+1000 J-500 J=2500 J
