How are the movements of the Moon in the sky and Earth's rotation about its own axis related? A) The Moon appears to move from E

ast to West due to Earth's East-to-West rotation. B) The Moon appears to move from East to West due to Earth's West-to-East rotation. C) The Moon actually moves from East to West while Earth rotates from West to East. D) The Moon and Earth both move from East to West, but Earth rotates at a lower speed.

Answer:

Earth rotates from West to East about its own axis. As a result of this, the Moon changes its position during the night. So the Moon appears to move from East to West in the sky due Earth's West-to-East rotation.

The moon orbits quite fast: it moves about 0.5 degrees per hour in the sky. In 24 hours it moves 13 degrees. The moon's observed motion eastward results from its physical motion of the moon along its orbit around the Earth. so I think its A .

table 4.interaction between two permanent bar magnets what i did to the pair of magnets to cause interaction and observed the ef
Leni [432]

A magnet is a substance which attracts or repels another substance. In a magnet, the atoms are aligned in a particular direction in domains. A magnet has two poles: North pole and South pole. The domains are oppositely aligned in unlike poles. Like poles repel each other where as unlike poles attract each other. Hence, when we bring like poles closer, repulsion would be experienced. In case of unlike poles, they would stick together.

A box with a mass of 2 kg accelerates in a straight line
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer: 16N

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of box M= 2 kg

Initial speed V1 = 4 m/s

Final speed V2 = 8 m/s

Time taken T= 0.5 s

Average strength of this force F = ?

Now, recall that Force is the rate of change of momentum per unit time

i.e Force = momentum / time

Hence, F = M x (V2 - V1)/T

F = 2kg x (8 m/s - 4 m/s) / 0.5s

F = 2kg x (4 m/s / 0.5s)

F = 2kg x 8 m/s/s)

F = 16N

Thus, the average strength of this

force is 16 newton.

If you jump off a 10 m diving platform, how long will it take you to hit the water?
Vilka [71]

Answer:

<h2>t=1.43 s</h2>

Option A is the correct option.

Solution,

S=10 m

u=0 m/s

a=9.8 m/s^2

Now,

<h3>2s = a {t}^{2}  \\ or \:  {t}^{2}  =  \frac{2 \times 10}{9.8}  \\ or \:  {t}^{2}  =  \frac{20}{9.8}  \\ or \:  {t}^{2}  = 2.04 \\ or \: t =  \sqrt{2.04}  \\ t = 1.43 \: seconds</h3>

hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...
