Answer:

Because the moon returns to the same place on the sky once every siderial  period (27.3 days), but the sun is also moving on the sky.Cycle of lunar phases takes 29.5 days. This is called the SYNODIC PERIOD

In an electric field, 0.90 joule of work is required to bring 0.45 coulomb of charge from point a to point
jarptica [38.1K]
The difference in electric potential energy between the two points is
\Delta U = q \Delta V
where q is the magnitude of the charge and \Delta V is the electric potential difference.

But for energy conservation, the difference in electric potential energy \Delta U between the two points is equal to the work done to move the charge between A and B:
W=\Delta U
so we have
W=q \Delta V

and by substituting the numbers of the problem, we find the value of \Delta V:
\Delta V =  \frac{W}{q}= \frac{0.90 J}{0.45 C}=2 V

Help pls i need this right now
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The x-component of F_{3} is 56.148 newtons.

Explanation:

From 1st and 2nd Newton's Law we know that a system is at rest when net acceleration is zero. Then, the vectorial sum of the three forces must be equal to zero. That is:

\vec F_{1} + \vec F_{2} + \vec F_{3} = \vec O (1)

Where:

\vec F_{1}, \vec F_{2}, \vec F_{3} - External forces exerted on the ring, measured in newtons.

\vec O - Vector zero, measured in newtons.

If we know that \vec F_{1} = (70.711,70.711)\,[N], \vec F_{2} = (-126.859, 46.173)\,[N], F_{3} = (F_{3,x},F_{3,y}) and \vec O = (0,0)\,[N], then we construct the following system of linear equations:

\Sigma F_{x} = 70.711\,N - 126.859\,N +F_{3,x} = 0\,N (2)

\Sigma F_{y} = 70.711\,N + 46.173\,N+F_{3,y} = 0\,N (3)

The solution of this system is:

F_{3,x} = 56.148\,N, F_{3,y} = -116.884\,N

The x-component of F_{3} is 56.148 newtons.

Which occupies mrs space, 3m cubed or 100ft cubed
Slav-nsk [51]

The question is somewhat ambiguous.

-- It's hard to tell whether it's asking about  '3 cubic meters'
or  (3m)³ which is actually 27 cubic meters.

-- It's hard to tell whether it's asking about    '100 cubic feet'
or  (100 ft)³ which is actually 1 million cubic feet.

I'm going to make an assumption, and then proceed to
answer the question that I have invented.
I'm going to assume that the question is referring to
'three cubic meters'  and  'one hundred cubic feet' .

OK.  We'll obviously need to convert some units here.
I've decided to convert the meters into feet.

For 1 meter, I always use    3.28084 feet.

Then (1 meter)³ = 1 cubic meter = (3.28084 ft)³ = 35.31 cubic feet.

So 3 cubic meters = (3 x 35.31 cubic feet) =  105.9 cubic feet.

That's more volume than  100 cubic feet.

A block with mass m1m1m_1 is placed on an inclined plane with slope angle ααalpha and is connected to a second hanging block tha
vredina [299]

Answer:

Explanation:

m₂ is hanging vertically and m₁ is placed on inclined plane . Both are in limiting equilibrium so on m₁ , limiting friction will act in upward direction as it will tend to slip in downward direct . Tension in cord connecting the masses be T .

For equilibrium of m₁

m₁ g sinα= T + f where f is force of friction

m₁ g sinα= T + μsx m₁ g cosα

m₁ g sinα -  μs x m₁ g cosα = T

For equilibrium of m₂

T = m₂g

Putting this value in equation above

m₁ g sinα -  μs x m₁ g cosα = m₂g

m₂ = m₁ sinα -  μs x m₁ cosα
