Answer: passes through Earth's shadow.

Explanation:

During a total lunar eclipse, the Earth lies between the Sun and the moon. All three are aligned in one straight line.

The moon does not have its own light. It reflects the sunlight. During total lunar eclipse, the earth comes between the sun and the moon and blocks the sunlight. Thus, the moon passes through the Earth's shadow and appears dark.

A 1.90-m-long barbell has a 25.0 kg weight on its left end and a 37.0 kg weight on its right end. if you ignore the weight of th

gregori [183]

Answer: The center of gravity is 1.1338 m away from the left side of the barbell

Explanation:

Length of the barbell = 1.90 m

The distance center of gravity from left = x

Mass on the left side = 25 kg

The distance center of gravity from right = 1.90 - x

Mass on the right side = 37 kg

At the balance point: $m_1x_1=m_2x_2$

$25 kg\times x=37 kg\times (1.90-x)$

$x=1.1338 m$

The center of gravity is 1.1338 m away from the left side of the barbell

Explain Ionic and Covalent bonding..

Elis [28]

Ionic bonding is a type of chemical bonding that involves the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, and is the primary interaction occurring in ionic compounds.A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.

As the distance of a sound wave from its source quadruples, how is the intensity changed? it increases by a factor of 4 it incre

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

it decreases by a factor of 16

Explanation:

The intensity of a sound wave is inversely proportional to the square of the distance:

$I\propto \frac{1}{d^2}$

where d is the distance.

Let's call d the initial distance. In this problem, the distance is then quadrupled, so the new distance is d' = 4 d. Substituting in the formula, we see that the new intensity is:

$I' \propto \frac{1}{(d')^2}=\frac{1}{(4d)^2}=\frac{1}{16} \frac{1}{d^2}=\frac{I}{16}$

So, we see that the intensity has decreased by a factor 16.
