Answer:

A) False B) True C) False D) False E) False

Explanation:

A) At any point of time half of the moon is always illuminated by the sun. We are able to see only the part of the moon which is facing us.

B)  Typically a Lunar cycle phases take 29.5 days to complete one cycle i.e. it will take 29.5 days for one event say full moon to reoccur. So except for February all the other month can have two full moons.

C) As explained in the above answer any month except February can have two full moons.

D) The tame taken between new moon is 29.5 days.

E) Full moon always rises at the sunset and sets at the sunrise

When energy is transferred to air, what happens to the particles of air? (1 point) They move slower. They move faster. They cool
zubka84 [21]
This question is a critical question. as we all know, when energy is added to any state of water, the particles move faster. and when energy is taken away from any state of water, the particles reduce speed. same with the particles of air. when energy is added; they move faster. when energy is removed; they move slower. so the answer is they move faster

What is the kinetic energy of an object that has a mass of 50.0 kg and a velocity of 18 m/s? A.450 J B.900 J C.8,100 J D.16,000
Svet_ta [14]
KE = (1/2)·(mass)·(speed)²

KE = (1/2)·(50 kg)·(18 m/s)²

KE = (25 kg)·(324 m²/s²)

KE = 8,100 kg-m²/s²

KE = 8,100 Joules

Which of the following is an example of Newton's second law of motion?
laiz [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Newton’s Second Law of Motion

Newton’s Second Law of Motion states that ‘when an object is acted on by an outside force, the mass of the object equals the strength of the force times the resulting acceleration’.

This can be demonstrated dropping a rock or and tissue at the same time from a ladder. They fall at an equal rate—their acceleration is constant due to the force of gravity acting on them.

The rock's impact will be a much greater force when it hits the ground, because of its greater mass. If you drop the two objects into a dish of water, you can see how different the force of impact for each object was, based on the splash made in the water by each one.
