How much total surface of the moon is illuminated by the sun when it is at quarter phase?

Physics
1 answer:
alex41 [277]2 years ago
6 0
50% of the moon is always illuminated, however during it's quarter phase means that we only see a quarter of what's really lit up. So it LOOKS like the moon is only 25% lit and 75% dark, it's truly 50/50. We only see that 25% since we can see it from one angle.

A 20-gram bullet traveling at 250 m/s strikes a block of wood that weighs 2 kg. With what velocity will the block and bullet mov
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

the velocity of the bullet-wood system after the collision is 2.48 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the bullet, m₀ = 20 g = 0.02 kg

velocity of the bullet, v₀ = 250 m/s

mass of the wood, m₁ = 2 kg

velocity of the wood, v₁ = 0

Let the velocity of the bullet-wood system after collision = v

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum to calculate the final velocity of the system;

Initial momentum = final momentum

m₀v₀ + m₁v₁ = v(m₀ + m₁)

0.02 x 250  + 2 x 0    =    v(2  + 0.02)

5 + 0 = v(2.02)

5 = 2.02v

v = 5/2.02

v = 2.48 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the bullet-wood system after the collision is 2.48 m/s

Allushta [10]

Answer:

48.6°

Explanation:

The forward force, F equals the component of the weight along the slope.

So mgsinθ = ma where a = acceleration and θ = angle between the slope and the horizontal.

So a = gsinθ

Since we are given that a = 75%g = 0.75g,

0.75g = gsinθ

sinθ = 0.75

θ = sin⁻¹(0.75)

= 48.6°

A 2.0 kg bucket is attached to a horizontal ideal spring and rests on frictionless ice. You have a 1.0 kg mass
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

x = A cos (w \sqrt{2y_{o}/g})

a) maximun  Ф= \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }

b) minimun     Ф = \frac{\pi }{2} - \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use kinematics to find the time it takes for the mass to reach the floor

         y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

   

as the mass is released from rest, its initial velocity is zero (vo = 0) and its height upon reaching the ground is zero (y = 0)

      0 = y₀ - ½ g t²

      t = \sqrt{2y_{o}/g}

The bucket-spring system has a simple harmonic motion, which is described by

     x = A cos wt

in this expression we assumed that the phase constant (Ф) is zero

let's replace the time

     x = A cos (w \sqrt{2y_{o}/g})

this is the distance where the system must be for the mass to fall into it.

a) The new system has a total mass of m ’= 3.0 kg, so its angular velocity changes

          w = \sqrt{k/m}

In the initial state

         w = \sqrt{k/2}

When the mass changes

         w ’= \sqrt{k/3}

the displacement in each case is

         x = A cos (wt)

for the new case

        x ’= A cos (w’t + Ф)

the phase constant is included to take into account possible changes due to the collision of the mass.

we see that this maximum expressions when the cosine is maximum

        cos (w´t + Ф) = 1

         w’t + Ф = 0

        Ф = -w ’t

        Ф = - \sqrt{k/3} \sqrt{2y_{o}/g}

       \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }

b) the function is minimun if

        cos (w’t + fi) = 0

        w’t + Ф = π / 2

        Ф = π / 2 - w ’t

        Ф = \frac{\pi }{2} - \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }
