Answer: The new moon phase occurs when the Moon is directly between the Earth and Sun. A solar eclipse can only happen at new moon. A waxing crescent moon is when the Moon looks like crescent and the crescent increases ("waxes") in size from one day to the next. This phase is usually only seen in the west.
Answer: <em>Option (A) is correct.</em>
Explanation:
A heuristic is often referred to as an approach to solving problems or discovery that subjects a method, which is considered to be practical although might not be guaranteed to be perfect, optimal, or rational, but sufficient for reaching to goal.
Empiricism is known as a theory under which one can states that knowledge can only be imparted from the sensory experience. It is considered to be one of the main notions underlying in epistemology, i.e. known as the study of human knowledge, alongside skepticism and rationalism.
By Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation.
F = GMm/r²
Where F is Force of Gravitation, M = Mass of first object, m = mass of second object, r = distance of separation
From the formula, you can see that if the masses, M and m, increased, the value of F would definitely increase as well.
And if r increased the value of F would be reduced because you would be dividing by a bigger number, but when the value of r is decreased the value of F would be increased, because you would then be dividing by something smaller. Note the r is at the denominator of the formula.
So F would increase if there was increase in Masses and decrease in distance.
So the answer is C. a and b.

Solution:
(a) The work done by the spring is given by

where k is the elastic constant of the spring and

is the stretch between the initial and final position. Since x1=-8 in=-0.203 m and x2=5 in=0.127 m, we have

(b) The work done by the weight is the product of the component of the weight parallel to the inclined plane and the displacement of the cart:

where the negative sign is given by the fact that

points in the opposite direction of the displacement of the cart, and where

therefore, the work done by the weight is
