Answer: Eclipse

Explanation: A lunar eclipse occurs when the full moon moves through the shadow of the Earth. This can only happen when the Earth is between the Moon and the Sun and all three are lined up in the same plane, called the ecliptic. The ecliptic is the plane of Earth's orbit around the Sun.

The following represents a mass attached to a spring oscillating in simple harmonic motion. X(t) = 4.0 cos(3.0t +0.10) units of
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

a) A = 4.0 m , b)   w = 3.0 rad / s , c)  f = 0.477 Hz , d) T = 20.94 s

Explanation:

The equation that describes the oscillatory motion is

          x = A cos (wt + fi)

In the exercise we are told that the expression is

          x = 4.0 cos (3.0 t + 0.10)

let's answer the different questions

a) the amplitude is

         A = 4.0 m

b) the frequency or angular velocity

         w = 3.0 rad / s

c) angular velocity and frequency are related

          w = 2π f

           f = w / 2π

           f = 3 / 2π

           f = 0.477 Hz

d) the period

frequency and period are related

           T = 1 / f

           T = 1 / 0.477

           T = 20.94 s

e) the phase constant

          Ф = 0.10 rad

f) velocity is defined by

          v = dx / dt

         

         v = - A w sin (wt + Ф)

speed is maximum when sine is + -1

         v = A w

          v = 4 3

          v = 12 m / s

g) the angular velocity is

          w² = k / m

          k = m w²

          k = 1.2 3²

          k = 10.8 N / m

h) the total energy of the oscillator is

          Em = ½ k A²

           Em = ½ 10.8 4²

          Em = 43.2 J

i) the potential energy is

           Ke = ½ k x²

for t = 0 x = 4 cos (0 + 0.1)

               x = 3.98 m

j) kinetic energy

           K = ½ m v²

for t = 00.1 ²

    v = A w sin 0.10

    v = 4 3 sin 0.10

    v = 1.98 m / s

Debby and Ben took different routes to travel from Point A to Point E. Debby took the route along A, B, C, D, and E. Ben took th
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Ben's average speed was twice Debby's average speed.

Explanation:

Ben covered a total distance of 16 miles (10+4+2) and Debby covered 8 miles (3+2+2+1) which is half of what Ben covered. As they both reached the place in the same amount of time it tells us Ben was faster.

When the valve between the 2.00-L bulb, in which the gas pressure is 2.00 atm, and the 3.00-L bulb, in which the gas pressure is
padilas [110]

Answer:

P_{C} = 3.2\, atm

Explanation:

Let assume that gases inside bulbs behave as an ideal gas and have the same temperature. Then, conditions of gases before and after valve opened are now modelled:

Bulb A (2 L, 2 atm) - Before opening:

P_{A} \cdot V_{A} = n_{A} \cdot R_{u} \cdot T

Bulb B (3 L, 4 atm) - Before opening:

P_{B} \cdot V_{B} = n_{B} \cdot R_{u} \cdot T

Bulbs A & B (5 L) - After opening:

P_{C} \cdot (V_{A} + V_{B}) = (n_{A} + n_{B})\cdot R_{u} \cdot T

After some algebraic manipulation, a formula for final pressure is derived:

P_{C} = \frac{P_{A}\cdot V_{A} + P_{B}\cdot V_{B}}{V_{A}+V_{B}}

And final pressure is obtained:

P_{C} = \frac{(2\,atm)\cdot (2\,L)+(4\,atm)\cdot(3\,L)}{5\,L}

P_{C} = 3.2\, atm
