Assume that the Moon is in circular orbit around the Earth. The distance between the Moon and the Earth is approximately 3.56 ×

106 km. The period of the Moon’s orbit is approximately 28 days. What is the acceleration of the Moon in km / h2?

Answer:

Acceleration = 311.2 Km/hr²

Explanation:

Given: Radius of the Orbit  r= 3.56 × 10⁶ km

Period of the orbit = 28 days = 672 hrs

Sol: We have Fc = MV²/r

⇒M ac = MV²/r

⇒ac = V²/r

First we have to Speed V so for this we have to find the circumference ( distance covered by the moon in one orbit)

⇒ Circumference= 2 π r

= 2 × 3.13149 × 3.56 × 10⁶ km

= 22,368,139.69 Km

Now Speed = Distance /time

Speed = 22,368,139.69 Km / 672 hrs

Speed V = 33,285.92 Km/Hr

Now

ac = V²/r = (33,285.92 Km/hrs)² / 3.56 × 10⁶ km

ac = 311.2 Km/hr²

1. Most waves are caused by vibrations. What motion in a transmitting antenna causes the vibrations that produce radio waves?
morpeh [17]
The answer 1 is
The best-known use of radio waves is for communication; television, cellphones and radios all receive radio waves and convert them to mechanical vibrations in the speaker to create sound waves that can be heard.Electromagnetic radiation is transmitted inwaves or particles at different wavelengths and frequencies.

the answer 2 is

Radio Waves: Instant Communication
Microwaves: Data and Heat

i think the answer number 3 is
It is all about wavelength versus tunnel diameter. The wavelength of GPS is about 20cm it would happily propagate in any normal tunnel if it could get in but the earth and other structures absorb it. AM radio (600kHz - 1500kHz) cannot propagate in any normal tunnel because the wavelength is too long (500m-200m) relative to the diameter, and thus gets reflected at the entrance. FM (100MHz ~ 3m) would propagate and it does for a while but then it suffers reflections

how does the location of semiconductors on the periodic table differ from the locations of other element families​
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Semi conductors are part of the fourth group in periodic table.

Explanation:

Periodic table is the arrangement of chemical elements on the basis of their atomic number. So all the elements with  respective valence electrons are placed in thir respective groups. . All the elements with valence electrons four are placed in the fourth group .Semi conductors is the common name given to the elements of 4th group. These elements dont have the tendency to either donate or accept.

The group 3 elements have three electrons in their valence shell and  hence have a tendency to donate. Whereas the group 5 elements having five valence electrons accept to satisfy thir octet. The semi conductors exist between 3rd and 5th groups exhibiting different properties according to the temperatures and excitations provided.

A 20-ton truck collides with a 1500-lb car and causes a lot of damage to the car. During the collision:
dexar [7]

Answer:

B. the force of on the truck due to the collision is exactly equal to the force on the car.

Explanation:

At the time of collision between two objects of unequal or equal masses  two forces emerge at the point of collision .They are called action and reaction force . According to third law of Newton , they are equal . So in the instant case of collision between car and truck , force on both of them  will be equal.
