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.

8_murik_8 [283]

Complete Question

A flywheel in a motor is spinning at 510 rpm when a power failure suddenly occurs. The flywheel has mass 40.0 kg and diameter 75.0 cm . The power is off for 40.0 s , and during this time the flywheel slows down uniformly due to friction in its axle bearings. During the time the power is off, the flywheel makes 210 complete revolutions. At what rate is the flywheel spinning when the power comes back on(in rpm)? How long after the beginning of the power failure would it have taken the flywheel to stop if the power had not come back on, and how many revolutions would the wheel have made during this time?

Answer:

\theta=274rev

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Angular velocity \omega=510rpm

Mass m=40.kg

Diameter d 75=>0.75m

Off Time t=40.0s

Oscillation at Power off N=210

Generally the equation for Angular displacement is mathematically given by

 \theta_{\infty}=\frac{w+w_0}{t}t

 w=\frac{2*\theta_{\infty}}{t}-w_0

 w=\frac{28210}{40*(\frac{1}{60})}-510

 w=120rpm

Generally the equation for Time to come to rest is mathematically given by

 t=(\frac{\omega_0}{\omega_0-\omega})t

 t=(\frac{510}{510-120rpm})(40.0)(\frac{1}{60})

 t=0.87min

Therefore Angular displacement is

 \theta =(\frac{120+510}{2})0.87

 \theta=274rev

What is the relationship between force and motion described by Newton's first law
prisoha [69]
Newtons First Law of Motion:
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion<span> stays in </span>motion <span>with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.</span>

Therefore, the relationship between force and motion is that it takes force to change the speed or direction of any object in motion.

Which of the following devices is associated with the reception of radio signals?
ki77a [65]
What are the "following" devices ? ?
I think they're a list of choices that you have but aren't sharing.

A few devices associated with the reception of various types of
radio signals include the resonant tank, the local oscillator, the
mixer, the detector, the coherer, the discriminator, the parabolic
reflector, the lecher wires, the audio transducer, the demultiplexer,
and ... my personal guess ... the 'antenna' or 'aerial'.

How long does it take for a 3.5 kW electric water heater to heat 40 kg of water? from 20 ° C to 75 ° C? The specific heat capaci
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

2633.7 s

Explanation:

From the question,

Heat lost by the water heater = Heat gained by the water

Applying,

P = cm(t₂-t₁)/t.................. Equation 1

Where P = power of the heat, c = specific heat capacity of water, m = mass of water, t₁ = initial temperature, t₂ = final temperature, t = time

make t the subject of the equation

t = cm(t₂-t₁)/P.............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: c = 4190 J/kgK, P = 3.5 kW = 3500 W, m = 40 kg, t₁ = 20°C, t₂ = 75°C

Substitute these values into equation 2

t = 4190×40(75-20)/3500

t = 9218000/3500

t = 2633.7 s
