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 .

A(n) 7.7-kg object is sliding across the ice at 2.34 m/s in the positive x direction. An internal explosion occurs, splitting th
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Average acceleration on first part of the chunk is given as

a_1 = 13.125 m/s^2

Average acceleration on second part of the chunk is given as

a_2 = -13.125 m/s^2

Explanation:

By momentum conservation along x direction we will have

mv_i = \frac{m}{2}v_1 + \frac{m}{2}v_2

so we have

v_1 + v_2 = 2v

v_1 + v_2 = 4.68

also by energy conservation

\frac{1}{2}(\frac{m}{2})v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{m}{2})v_2^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = 17 J

\frac{1}{4}m(v_1^2 + v_2^2) - \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = 17

(v_1^2 + v_2^2) - 2v^2 = \frac{4}{7.7}(17)

(4.68 - v_2)^2 + v_2^2 - 2v^2 = 8.83

21.9 + 2v_2^2 - 9.36 v_2 - 10.95 = 8.83

2v_2^2 - 9.36v_2 + 2.12 = 0

by solving above equation we will have

v_1 = 4.44 m/s

v_2 = 0.24 m/s

Average acceleration on first part of the chunk is given as

a_1 = \frac{4.44 - 2.34}{0.16}

a_1 = 13.125 m/s^2

Average acceleration on second part of the chunk is given as

a_2 = \frac{0.24 - 2.34}{0.16}

a_2 = -13.125 m/s^2

A roller coaster car of mass m= 300 kg is released from rest at the top of a 60 m high hill (position A), and rolls with a negli
Andrews [41]

Answer: The principle of conservation of energy, angular speed and centripetal force

Explanation:

At point A, the car experienced maximum of potential energy

As it moves down the hill, the potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases.

The maximum kinetic energy of the car is needed for the attainment of enough centripetal force to help the car move through the loop without falling .

An angry physics student releases a wrecking ball as shown. The wrecking ball is just about to hit the building at the final tim
daser333 [38]

Answer:

the force between the building and the ball is non-conservative (friction-type force)

Explanation

Explanation:For this exercise the student must create an impulse to move the ball towards the building, in this part he performs positive work since the applied force and the displacement are in the same direction.

When the ball moves it has a kinetic energy and if its height increases or decreases its potential energy also changes, but the sum of being must be equal to the initial work.

When the ball arrives and collides with the building, non-conservative forces, of various kinds; rubbing, breaking, etc. It transforms this energy into a part of heat and another in mechanical energy that the building must absorb, let us destroy its wall

Consequently, the force between the building and the ball is non-conservative (friction-type force

In the periodic table, the properties repeat in what direction?​
pogonyaev

Answer:

Left to right and top to bottom

Explanation:

On the periodic table, the properties repeat from left to right and from top to bottom.

Periodic properties have a pattern from the top to the bottom or down a group or family.

Also, across the period from left to right, they also show a repeating pattern.

  1. Certain properties increase from left to right and decreases from top to bottom. E.g. electronegativity.
  2. Also, some properties decreases from left to right and increases from top to bottom e.g. atomic radius.
