Why are there temperature differences on the moon's surface even though there is no atmosphere present?

Physics

nika2105 [10]3 years ago

The lack of an atmosphere means convection cannot happen on the moon. Therefore, there is no form of heat dissipation on regions in direct sunlight. In addition, the lack of an atmosphere means there is no greenhouse effect on the moon. This is why regions facing away from sunlight are very cold.

vector ????⃗ has a magnitude of 17.9 and its direction is 80∘ counter‑clockwise from the x- axis. what are the x- and y- compone
Reika [66]

We have vector (17.9*cos80^{0},17.9*sin80^{0})

Therefore,

x component = 17.9 * cos80 degree = 3.108

y component = 17.9 * sin80 degrees = 17.628

<h3>What is a vector?</h3>

An object with both magnitude and direction is referred to be a vector. A vector can be visualized geometrically as a directed line segment, with an arrow pointing in the direction and a length equal to the magnitude of the vector. The vector points in a direction from its tail to its head.

If the magnitude and direction of two vectors match, they are the same vector. This shows that if we move a vector to a different location without rotating it, the final vector will be the same as the initial vector. The vectors that denote force and velocity are two examples. The direction of force and velocity are both fixed. The size of the vector would represent the force's strength or the velocity's corresponding speed.

Two transverse waves travel along the same taut string. Wave 1 is described by y1(x, t) = A sin(kx - ωt), while wave 2 is descri
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

6) Wave 1 travels in the positive x-direction, while wave 2 travels in the negative x-direction.

Explanation:

What matters is the part kx \pm \omega t, the other parts of the equation don't affect time and space variations. We know that when the sign is - the wave propagates to the positive direction while when the sign is + the wave propagates to the negative direction, but <em>here is an explanation</em> of this:

For both cases, + and -, after a certain time \delta t (\delta t >0), the displacement <em>y</em> of the wave will be determined by the kx\pm\omega (t+\delta t) term. For simplicity, if we imagine we are looking at the origin (x=0), this will be simply \pm \omega (t+\delta t).

To know which side, right or left of the origin, would go through the origin after a time \delta t (and thus know the direction of propagation) we have to see how we can achieve that same displacement <em>y</em> not by a time variation but by a space variation \delta x (we would be looking where in space is what we would have in the future in time). The term would be then k(x+\delta x)\pm\omega t, which at the origin is k \delta x \pm \omega t. This would mean that, when the original equation has kx+\omega t, we must have that \delta x>0 for k\delta x+\omega t to be equal to kx+\omega\delta t, and when the original equation has kx-\omega t, we must have that \delta x for k\delta x-\omega t to be equal to kx-\omega \delta t

<em>Note that their values don't matter, although they are a very small variation (we have to be careful since all this is inside a sin function), what matters is if they are positive or negative and as such what is possible or not .</em>

<em />

In conclusion, when kx+\omega t, the part of the wave on the positive side (\delta x>0) is the one that will go through the origin, so the wave is going in the negative direction, and viceversa.
