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

Physics
1 answer:
alex41 [277]3 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.

We have here what is known as parallel combination of resistors.

Using the relation:

\frac{1}{ r_{eff} } = \frac{1}{ r_{1} } + \frac{1}{ r_{2} } + \frac{1}{ r_{3} }.. . + \frac{1}{ r_{n} } \\
And then we can turn take the inverse to get the effective resistance.

Where r is the magnitude of the resistance offered by each resistor.

In this case we have,
(every term has an mho in the end)
\frac{1}{10000} + \frac{1}{2000} + \frac{1}{1000} \\ \\ = \frac{1}{1000} ( \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{1} ) \\ \\ = \frac{1}{1000} ( \frac{31}{20}) \\ \\ = \frac{31}{20000}

To ger effective resistance take the inverse:
we get,
\frac{20000}{31} \: ohm \\ = 645 .16 \: ohm

The potential difference is of 9V.

So the current flowing using ohm's law,

V = IR

will be, 0.0139 Amperes.

What is the conductor's resistance if its length is 2m and has a cross-sectional area of 0.7m with a resistivity of4Ωm? a. 1.4 Ω
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The answer is c. 11.42 Ohm

Explanation:

The conductor's resistance is calculated by the formula in the figure.

So, you have to replace the given values into the formula.

Resistance of a conductor is equal to the product of rho by the lengh of the conductor divided the cross-sectional area of the conductor.

R= 4 ohm.m . (2m/o.7m^{2} )\\R=11.42ohm

Newton’s second law of motion addresses the relationship between what two variables that influence the force on a body?
Helen [10]

Answer:

A. Mass and acceleration

Explanation:

  • According to Newton's second law of motion, the resultant force is directly proportional to the rate of change in momentum
  • Therefore; F = ma , where F is the resultant force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration of the body.
  • <u>Resultant force depends on the acceleration and the mass of a body in motion, an increase in acceleration causes a corresponding increase in resultant force.</u> A body with higher mass will have a larger strong force if the acceleration is kept constant.

What is the impulse of a 2 kg object that starts at 10 m/s and comes to a stop over 0.4 seconds?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: Impulse = 20 Ns

Explanation:

Impulse is the product of force and time

Also impulse = momentum

Where momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

Given that

M = 2kg

V = 10 m/s

Impulse = MV = 2 × 10 = 20 Ns
