It is because the moon is not actually parallel with the earth. This may not be the full answer...

It is because there axis of rotation is different. They are not parallel. In that case, during the full-moon, it's not necessary, that we will see a lunar eclipse. Lunar eclipse occurs when moon comes in-between of the Sun and the Earth. 

Hope this helps!

A group of air particles in a balloon are spread far apart and moving rapidly around inside the balloon. The balloon is placed i
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

1) The balloon will shrink

2) The balloon will grow bigger and regain its shape

Explanation:

By the kinetic theory of gases, we have;

v_{rms} = \sqrt{\dfrac{3 \cdot R \cdot T}{MW} }

P = \dfrac{n \cdot MW \cdot vrms^2}{3 \cdot V}

Where;

v_{rms} = RMS Speed

R = The universal gas constant

T = The temperature

MW = The Molecular weight

n = The number of moles

V = The volume

P = The pressure

1) When the balloon is placed in the refrigerator for  minutes, the temperature inside the balloon will drop and RMS speed will reduce, however due to the elastic wall of the balloon, the pressure will remain the same therefore the volume  will reduce and the balloon will shrink

2) When the balloon is placed on the kitchen counter, the temperature inside the balloon will rise leading to the increase in the RMS speed which will raise the pressure effect on the wall  of the balloon as the balloon is made of elastic material, as the pressure rises, the wall expands to keep the pressure constant and the volume occupied by the air particles will increase, the balloon will grow bigger and regain its shape.

Which plot correctly shows the velocity of the two balls as a function of time?
yanalaym [24]
The given in this problem is that two balls are thrown at different times, different heights and velocities. A blue ball is thrown upward at a specific velocity at a lower altitude while a red ball is thrown downwards at a specific speed and at a higher height. In this case, we are asked here to describe the graph of the behavior of the balls as a function of time. The x-axis then is time while the y-axis is the velocity of the ball. The blue ball has a quadratic function while the red ball is more or less exponential. See the attached figure for reference.

A proton and an alpha particle (q = +2e, m = 4 u) are fired directly toward each other from far away, each with an initial speed
stich3 [128]

Answer:

Distance of closest approach, r=1.91\times 10^{-14}\ m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on proton, q_p=e

Charge on alpha particle, q_a=2e

Mass of proton, m_p=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg

Mass of alpha particle, m_a=4m_p=6.68\times 10^{-27}\ kg

The distance of closest approach for two charged particle is given by :

r=\dfrac{k2e^2(m_p+m_a)}{2m_am_pv_p^2}

r=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 2(1.6\times 10^{-19})^2(1.67\times 10^{-27}+6.68\times 10^{-27})}{2\times 6.68\times 10^{-27}\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}(0.01\times 3\times 10^8)^2}

r=1.91\times 10^{-14}\ m

So, their distance of closest approach, as measured between their centers 1.91\times 10^{-14}\ m. Hence, this is the required solution.
