Answer: A.The moon doesn’t have an atmosphere to burn up the rocks before hitting the surface.

Explanation:

Unlike the Earth, the Moon does not have an atmosphere, this leads to at least to facts:

1) Since the atmosphere (in the case of Earth) is mainly composed of gases (including oxigen) that can make combustion; when a meteor enters in the atmosphere and gets in contact with oxigen it becomes flamable and part of it is burned and separated. Then, if the meteor was large enough, the parts that were not separated will impact on the Earth Surface.

In the Moon, meteors completely impact the surface.

2) In our planet, after the meteorite impact, the crater formed will gradually fade due to erosion caused by the atmosphere. In the case of the Moon, the craters remain intact, since there is not erosion on its surface.

Real springs have mass. How will the true period andfrequency
Ad libitum [116K]

Explanation:

An perfect mass less spring, attached at one end and with a free mass attached at the other end, will have a distinct frequency of oscillation depending on its constant spring and mass. On the other hand, a spring with mass along its length will not have a characteristic frequency of oscillation.

Alternatively, based on its spring constant and mass per length, it will now have a wave Speed. It would be possible to use all wavelengths and frequencies, as long as the component fλ= S, where S is the spring wave size. If that sounds like longitudinal waves, like solid sound waves.

a care starting from rest has an acceleration 0.3 m/s square, calculate the velocity and distance travelled by this car after 2
Anna [14]

Answer:

Final velocity (v) = 36 m/s

Distance traveled (s) = 2,160 m

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 0

Acceleration (a) = 0.3 m/s

Time travel (t) = 2 minutes = 120 seconds

Find:

Final velocity (v) = ?

Distance traveled (s) = ?

Computation:

v = u + at

v = 0 + 0.3(120)

v = 0.3(120)

v = 36 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 36 m/s

Distance traveled (s) = ut + (1/2)at²

Distance traveled (s) = (0.5)(0.3 × 120 × 120)

Distance traveled (s) = 2,160 m

A uniform electric field is produced due to the charge distribution inside the closed cylindrical surface. (a) What type of char
DiKsa [7]

Answer with Explanation:

a. Option d is true.

a negatively charged plane parallel to the end faces of the cylinder

b. Radius of cylinder, r=0.66m

Magnitude of electric field, E=300 N/C

We have to find the net flux through the closed surface.

Net electric flux,\phi=-2 EA=-2E(\pi r^2)

\phi=-2\times 300\times (3.14\times (0.66)^2)

\phi=-820.67 Nm^2/C

c.

Net charge,Q=\epsilon_0\times \phi

Where

\epsilon_0=8.85\times 10^{-12}

Q=-820.67\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}

Q=-7.26\times 10^{-9} C

Q=-7.26nC

Where 1nC=10^{-9}C

Explain the intermittent reinforcement schedules in your own words
fgiga [73]

In behaviorism, Intermittent Reinforcement is a conditioning schedule in which a reward or punishment (reinforcement) is not administered every time the desired response is performed. ... On an intermittent reinforcement schedule the mouse would only receive food every few times (it is typically random and unpredictable).
