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 .

An insulator can do which of the following? Conduct charge through it. Become positively or negatively charged. Transfer protons
ser-zykov [4K]
The correct answer is:
<span>Become positively or negatively charged

In fact, an insulator is a material where charges cannot move freely. Therefore, it can be positively or negatively charge (for example, if it is rubbed against another object, the insulator can remain with an excess of charge), but it cannot transfer charge to other objects.</span>

Which statement is an example of the law of conservation of energy
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The law of conservation of energy can be seen in these everyday examples of energy transference: Water can produce electricity. Water falls from the sky, converting potential energy to kinetic energy. This energy is then used to rotate the turbine of a generator to produce electricity.

(a) Neil A. Armstrong was the first person to walk on the moon. The distance between the earth and the moon is 3.85 108 m. Find
Goshia [24]

Answer:

It took 1.28 seconds to his voice to reach the Earth via radio waves.

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum is the distribution of radiation due to the different frequencies at which it radiates and its different intensities, that radiation is formed by electromagnetic waves, which are transverse waves formed by an electric field and a magnetic field perpendicular to it.

The distribution of the radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum can also be given in wavelengths, but it is more frequent to work with it at frequencies, the highest being that of gamma rays, followed by X-rays, ultraviolet rays and the visible region , and those of lower frequencies, which correspond to infrared, microwave and radio waves.

Light propagates as electromagnetic wave in vacuum with a speed of 3x10^{8}m/s. Therefore, radio waves will have in vacuum the same speed.

Then, to know the time that it took for its voice, the next equation can be used:

c = \frac{d}{t}  (1)

Where c is the speed of light, d is the distance and t is the time.

Notice that t can be isolated from equation 1.

t = \frac{d}{c} (2)

t = \frac{3.85x10^{8} m}{3x10^{8}m/s}

t = 1.28s

Hence, it took 1.28 seconds to his voice to reach the Earth via radio waves.

If an object has a mass of 1417g and it is moved 47 meters in 90 seconds, how much power was used?
astraxan [27]

Mass of the object is given as

m = 1417 g = 1.417 kg

now the speed of object is given as

v = \frac{d}{t}

here we know that

d = 47 m

t = 90 s

now we will have

v = \frac{47}{90} = 0.52 m/s

now we will have kinetic energy of the object as

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = \frac{1}{2}(1.417)(0.52)^2

KE = 0.19 J

now the power is defined as rate of energy

so here we can find power as

P = \frac{KE}{t}

P = \frac{0.19}{90} = 2.14\times 10^{-3} W

so above is the power used for the object
