Answer: 3.49 s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equation of motion:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (1)

Where:

y=0 m is the final height of the ball

y_{o}=60 m is the initial height of the ball

V_{o}=0 m/s is the initial velocity (the ball was dropped)

g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleratio due gravity

t is the time

Isolating t:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2 y_{o}}{g}} (2)

t=\sqrt{\frac{2 (60 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} (3)

Finally we find the time the ball is in the air:

t=3.49 s (4)

Drupady [299]

The phases of the moon are the changing appearances of the moon, as seen from Earth. Which phase happens immediately after a third quarter moon are the following

Explanation:

  • After the full moon (maximum illumination), the light continually decreases. So the waning gibbous phase occurs next. Following the third quarter is the waning crescent, which wanes until the light is completely gone -- a new moon.

waning gibbous phase

  • The waning gibbous phase occurs between the full moon and third quarter phases. The last quarter moon (or a half moon) is when half of the lit portion of the Moon is visible after the waning gibbous phase.

Time takes by the moon to go through all the phases

about 29.5 days

  • It takes 27 days, 7 hours, and 43 minutes for our Moon to complete one full orbit around Earth. This is called the sidereal month, and is measured by our Moon's position relative to distant “fixed” stars. However, it takes our Moon about 29.5 days to complete one cycle of phases (from new Moon to new Moon).
  • At 3rd quarter, the moon rises at midnight and sets at noon. Then we see only a crescent. At new, the moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset, and we don't see any of the illuminated side!
