Answer: The Earth lies between the Sun and the Moon.

Explanation:

During a total lunar eclipse, the Sun, the Earth and the moon align in such a way that the earth blocks the sunlight to fall on moon and moon passes through Earth's shadow.

The arrangement is: Sun then Earth then Moon.

Total lunar eclipse does not occur on every full moon night because the there is a slight difference in the alignment of orbits.

Neutrons incident on a heavy nucleus with spin J 0 show a resonance at an incident energy ER = 250 eV in the total cross-section
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

elastic partial width is 2.49 eV

Explanation:

given data

ER  E = 250 eV

spin J = 0

cross-section magnitude σ = 1300 barns

peak P = 20ev

to find out

elastic partial width W

solution

we know here that

σ = λ²× W /  ( E × π × P )     ...................1

put here all value

σ = (0.286)² × W  × 10^{-16}/  ( 250 × π × 20 )

1300 × 10^{-24} = (0.286)² × W  × 10^{-16}/  ( 250 × π × 20 )

solve it and we get W

W = 249.56 × 10^{-2}

so elastic partial width is 2.49 eV

The volume of the nucleus as compared to the volume of the atom is​
velikii [3]

The nucleus of an atom is about 10-15 m in size; this means it is about 10-5 (or 1/100,000) of the size of the whole atom. A good comparison of the nucleus to the atom is like a pea in the middle of a racetrack. (10-15 m is typical for the smaller nuclei; larger ones go up to about 10 times that.)

What is happening to the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a pot of water when it is heated on a stove? Explain your an
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy of molecules in a pot increases when it is heated on a stove . The heat energy is spent to decrease the intermolecular attractive force . The result is increase in kinetic energy due to increase in the velocity of molecules

formula for kinetic energy of one mole of a monoatomic  gas

= 3/2 RT

when temperature increases , kinetic energy increases .

Calculate the acceleration of a 3000 kg truck that had a net force of 500 N applied to it. Express your answer in m/s^2???
WINSTONCH [101]
Newton's 2nd law of motion . . . . . Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Divide each side by (mass), and you have

Acceleration  =  (force) / (mass)

We know the force and mass for this truck, so we can fillum in:

Acceleration = (500 N) / (3,000 kg)  =  0.167 m/s²  .
