Moon eclipse is when the moon interposes between the sun and behind the Earth. The moon passes behind the Earth into its umbra and not viceversa! This is possible when the three of them are ALIGNED (in syzygy). In Romania, there was such eclipse that could be seen at an October night last year.

A lunar eclipse is basically when the earth passes between the moon and sun, causing the moon to appear darkened. Also, unlike the solar eclipse, the lunar eclipse occurs during the day.

What amount of heat is required to raise the temperature of 200 g of water by 15°C (the specific heat of water is 1 cal/g°C)
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Heat energy required (Q) = 3,000 J

Explanation:

Find:

Mass of water (M) = 200 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 15°C

Specific heat of water (C) = 1 cal/g°C

Find:

Heat energy required (Q) = ?

Computation:

Q = M × ΔT × C

Heat energy required (Q) = Mass of water (M) × Change in temperature (ΔT) × Specific heat of water (C)

Heat energy required (Q) = 200 g × 15°C × 1 cal/g°C

Heat energy required (Q) = 3,000 J

A car has a mass of 1000 kg and accelerates at 2 meters per second per second. what is the magnitude of the net force exerted on
9966 [12]
F=ma
Therefore the net force = 1000kg × 2 metres per second per second
So F=2000 N

Why is it important to understand the concept of density ?
N76 [4]
Density applies to many if not all aspects of life.  With density you can explain why ice floats.   You can explain why oxygen is on the earth, and not floating around in space( or being replaced by another gas).  You can also explain why heat rises while cold air sinks.

A mechanic pushes a 3540 kg car from rest to a speed of v, doing 4864 J of work in the process. Find the speed v. Neglect fricti
topjm [15]

Answer:

1.66 m/s

Explanation:

Work or kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

4864=\frac{1}{2} (3540)v^{2}

v = 1.66 m/s

Select the correct answer.
kvasek [131]

Answer:

8.37×10⁻⁴ N/C

Explanation:

Electric Field: This is the ratio of electrostatic force to electric charge. The S.I unit of electric field is N/C.

From the question, the expression for electric field is given as,

E = F/Q.......................... Equation 1

Where E = Electric Field, F = force experienced by the charged balloon, Q = Charge on the balloon.

Given: F = 8.2×10⁻² Newton, Q = 9.8×10 Coulombs = 98 Coulombs

Substitute these values into equation 1

E = 8.2×10⁻² /98

E = 8.37×10⁻⁴ N/C

Hence the Electric Field of the charged balloon =  8.37×10⁻⁴ N/C
