You see a total eclipse of the sun. Three Saros cycles later, you find yourself at the same location.

Physics

5 0

Answer:

The correct answer is B. You would not have to travel far to see another total eclipse  .

Explanation:

it is said that the way to predict or know beforehand if there is a lunar or solar eclipse is just to know the what is called the saros which are periods of exactly 223 synodic months and the eclipses are repeated or occurred in the same location every 3 Saros cycles.

A lamp hangs from the ceiling at a height of 2.6 m. The lamp has a mass of 3.8 kg. The screws holding the lamp break, and it fal
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given height of lamp from the ceiling = 2.6m

mass of the lamp = 3.8kg

acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

As the body falls to the ground, it falls under the influence of gravity.

Gravitational potential energy = mass*acc due to gravity * height

Gravitational potential energy  = 3.8*2.6*9.81

Gravitational potential energy  = 96.923 Joules

b) Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv²

m = mass of the body (in kg)

v = velocity of the body (in m/s²)

To get the velocity v, we will use the equation of motion v^{2} = u^{2}+2gh

v^{2} = 0^{2}+2(9.81)(2.6) \\v^{2} = 51.012\\v =\sqrt{51.012}\\ v = 7.14m/s

Since mass = 3.8kg

K.E =  1/2 * 3.8 *7.14^{2}\\ K.E = 96.86Joules

c) To know how fast the lamp is moving when it hits the ground, we will use the formula. When the body hits the ground, the height covered will be 0m. this means that the body is not moving once it hits the ground. It stays in one position. The energy possessed by the body at this point is potential energy. The correct answer is therefore 0 m/s

An early method of measuring the speed of light makes use of a rotating slotted wheel. A beam of light passes through one of the
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

4.7 x 10³ rad / s

Explanation:

During the time light goes and comes back , one slot is replaced by next slot while rotating  before the light source

Time taken by light to travel a distance of 2 x 500 m is

= (2 x 500) / 3 x 10⁸

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ s .

In this time period, two consecutive slots come before the source of light one after another by rotation. There are 400 slots so time taken to make one rotation

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ x 400

= 13.33 x 10⁻⁴ s

This is the time period so

T = 13.33 X 10⁻⁴

Angular speed

= 2π / T

= \frac{2\times3.14}{13.33\times10^{-4}}

4.7 x 10³ rad / s

Malcolm and Ravi raced each other. The average of their maximum speeds was 260 km/h If doubled, Malcolm's maximum speed would be
AfilCa [17]

Answer

Given,

Average speed of Malcolm and Ravi = 260 km/h

Let speed of the Malcolm be X and speed of the Ravi Y.

From the given statement

\dfrac{X+Y}{2}=260

X + Y = 520 ....(i)

2X - Y = 80  ....(ii)

Adding both the equations

3 X = 600

 X = 200 km/h

Putting value in equation (i)

Y = 520 - 200

Y = 320 Km/h

Speed of Malcolm = 200 Km/h

Speed of Ravi = 320 Km/h
