When the shadow of the moon appears on earths surface what is occuring?

1 answer:

6 0

The moon surface is visible to an observer on earth due to the gravitational force that attracts the moon to the earth. The more massive the body is, the more the smaller body is attracted to the larger body. We can only see the side of the moon due to the speed at which the moon rotates.

A hammer falls from a construction worker's hand 30m above the ground at the same time that a filled soft drink can is projected

drek231 [11]

For harmer:-

initial velocity=u=0m/s

Acceleration due to gravity=10m/s^2

Now

$\\ \sf\longmapsto s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto s=0t+\dfrac{1}{2}(10)t^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto s=5t^2\dots(1)$

For soft drink:-

u=24m/s

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 30-s=(24)t+\dfrac{1}{2}(10)t^2$

Using eq(1)

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 30-5t^2=24t-5t^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 24t=30$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto t=\dfrac{30}{24}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto t=1.2s$

After 1.2s they will meet.

Now

putting t in eq(1)

$\\ \sf\longmapsto s=5t^2=5(1.2)^2=5(1.44)=7.2m$

At the height of 7.2m they will meet

A body is thrown vertically upwards.Its velocity keeps on decreasing. What happens to its kinetic energy when it reaches the max

Nikolay [14]

The kinetic energy will rise once the body comes back down. As it goes up, the potential energy increases while the kinetic energy decreases. Once the body is at its maximum height, the potential energy is at it’s highest. When it starts falling, it will gain kinetic energy and lose potential energy.

The system needs an ordinary friction-based brake to bring the train to a full stop. Explain why the magnetic brake is not very

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

The slower the train is moving, the less are the changes of the magnetic flux, thus the eddy currents become weaker.

Explanation:

A magnetic brakes is not a very efficient way of braking when a train is moving slowly because at low speeds, the changes in the magnetic flux are very less and so it causes the eddy current to become weaker.

Let us find the drag force which is proportional to the velocity of two conducting plates.

The EMF that is induced in the eddy currents are : $E=v(B \times L)$

The force which is due to the induced magnetic field is, $F=l(L \times B)$

Therefore, $F=\frac{E}{R} \times (L \times B)$

$F=\frac{v(B \times L)}{R} \times (L \times B)$

Here, force is directly proportional to the velocity of the two conducting plates.

Therefore, we can say that when the speed of the train is low, the magnetic flux changes are less and thus the eddy currents are weaker.
