B - speed and direction are combined in another quantity, called velocity. It can be thought of as its speed in a particular direction. Speed is the corresponding scalar quantity, because it does not have a direction.

A 25 kg block is held against a compressed spring and then the spring is allowed to decompress giving the block a velocity. The
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

h=18.05 cm

Explanation:

Given that

m= 25 kg

K= 1300 N/m

x=26.4 cm

θ= 19.5 ∘

When the block just leave the spring then the speed of block = v m/s

From energy conservation

\dfrac{1}{2}Kx^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Kx^2=mv^2

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{kx^2}{m}}

By putting the values

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{kx^2}{m}}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{1300\times 0.264^2}{25}}

v=1.9 m/s

When block reach at the maximum height(h) position then the final speed of the block will be zero.

We know that

V_f^2=V_i^2-2gh

By putting the values

0^2=1.9^2-2\times 10\times h

h=0.1805 m

h=18.05 cm

Suppose that instead of being inclined to Earth's orbit around the Sun, the Moonâs orbit was in the same plane as Earthâs orbit
ycow [4]

Answer:

c) 12

Explanation:

A Solar eclipse occurs when The Sun, The Earth and The Moon comes in a straight line with the Moon being in between the Earth and the Sun. At this point the Moon appears to block the Sun and Moon's shadow falls on Earth. This would occur only on the day of the New Moon.

If the Moon's orbit was in the same plane as that of the Earth's orbit. Every new Moon, there would be a Solar Eclipse. The Lunar cycle is of 29.5 Days which means there will be one new Moon every month. So there will be 12 Solar Eclipses every year.

Currently, the orbit of the Moon is tilted at an angle of 5° thus we don't see that many Solar eclipses. Maximum of 5 solar eclipses can occur in an year.
