Answer:

27 days

Explanation:

Earth has only one natural satellite-the moon. The moon is about one-fourth the Earth's size. Moon rotates about its own axis as well as revolves about the Earth. Its revolution period around Earth is 27.32 days (27 \frac{1}{3} days) where as its rotation period is 27 days. Due to this synchronization of the two periods, only one side of the moon is always visible to us.

It lasts 29 1/2 days.
-the sidereal month- is the true period of the moon's revolution around Earth. It lasts 27 1/3 days.
-the difference of 2 days between the synodic and sidereal cycles is due to the Earth- moon system also moving in an orbit around the sun.

What is the power output of a pump which can raise 60kg of water height to height of 10m every minute
sattari [20]

Answer:

<h3>Power = Work Done/time</h3>

=> Power = 60×10×10/60

=> Power = 6000/60

=> Power = 100 Watt

Hence the power output of a pump is 100 Watts.

A shell of mass m and speed v explodes into two identical fragments. If the shell was moving horizontally (the positive x direct
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of original shell , m .

Velocity of shell , + v .

Now , the particle explodes into two half parts , i.e  \dfrac{m}{2} .

Since , no eternal force is applied in the particle .

Therefore , its momentum will be conserved .

So , Final momentum = Initial momentum

mv=\dfrac{mv}{2}+\dfrac{mu}{2}\\\\u=v

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .
