Can more people see a total solar eclipse or a total lunar eclipse?Explain.

More people can see a total lunar eclipse, because they are widely more visible because Earth casts a shadow on the Moon during a lunar eclipse than the Moon casts on Earth during a solar eclipse. Also because total lunar eclipses are basically "bigger" than a total solar eclipse.

The energy of a photon is proportional to its a) amplitude. d) wave number, k-2m/A c) velocity. b) frequency
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Frequency

Explanation:

Photons are the packet of energy. They are massless and chargeless particles. They travel in the vacuum with the speed of light. The energy of photon is given by :

E=h\nu

Where

h = Planck's constant

\nu = frequency of photon

Or E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

c = speed of light

\lambda = wavelength of photon

From the above equation, it is clear that the energy of photon is directly proportional to its frequency.

A space expedition discovers a planetary system consisting of a massive star and several spherical planets. The planets all have
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

T/√8

Explanation:

From Kepler's law, T² ∝ R³ where T = period of planet and R = radius of planet.

For planet A, period = T and radius = 2R.

For planet B, period = T' and radius = R.

So, T²/R³ = k

So, T²/(2R)³ = T'²/R³

T'² = T²R³/(2R)³

T'² = T²/8

T' = T/√8

So, the number of hours it takes Planet B to complete one revolution around the star is T/√8

A gray kangaroo can bound across level ground with each jump carrying it 8.7 from the takeoff point. Typically the kangaroo leav
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

a) The takeoff speed is 10 m/s.

b) The maximum height above the ground is 1.2 m.

Explanation:

The position of the kangaroo and its velocity at any given time "t" can be calculated by the following equations:

r = (x0 + v0 · t · cos α, y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²)

v =(v0 · cos α, v0 · sin α + g · t)

Where:

r = position vector at time "t".

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0 = initial velocity.

α = jumping angle.

y0 = initial vertical position.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

v = velocity vector at time "t"

a) Please see the attached figure for a better understanding of the problem. In red is depicted the position vector at the final time (r final). The components of r final are known:

r final = (8.7 m, 0 m)

Then at final time:

8.7 m = x0 + v0 · t · cos α

0 m = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

(notice in the figure that the origin of the frame of reference is located at the jumping point so that x0 and y0 = 0). Then:

8.7 m = v0 · t · cos α

Solving for "v0":

8.7 m /(t · cos α) = v0

Replacing v0 in the equation of the y-component, we can obtain the final time:

0 m = 8.7 m · tan 29° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t² (remember: sin α / cos α = tan α)

- 8.7 m · tan 29° / -4.9 m/s² = t²

t = 0.99 s

Now, we can calculate the initial speed:

8.7 m /t · cos α = v0

v0 = 8.7 m / (0.99 s · cos 29°)

<u>v0 = 10 m/s</u>

The takeoff speed is 10 m/s

b) When the kangaroo is at its maximum height, the velocity vector is horizontal (see figure). That means that the y-component of the velocity at that time is 0:

0 = v0 · sin α + g · t

Solving for "t":

-v0 · sin α / g = t

t = - 10 m/s · sin 29° / 9.8 m/s²

t = 0.49 s

Notice that we could have halved the final time (0.99 s, calculated above) to obtain the time at which the kangaroo is at its maximum height. That´s because the trajectory is parabolic.

Now, let´s find the height of the kangaroo at that time:

y = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

y = 10 m/s · 0.49 s · sin 29° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (0.49 s)²

<u>y = 1.2 m</u>

The maximum height above the ground is 1.2 m.
