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

Answer:

d = 4 d₀o

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using the relationship between work and the variation of kinetic energy

         W = ΔK

In that case as the car stops v_f = 0

the work is

          W = -fr d

we substitute

          - fr d₀ = 0 - ½ m v₀²

           d₀ = ½ m v₀² / fr

now they indicate that the vehicle is coming at twice the speed

          v = 2 v₀

using the same expressions we find

           d = ½ m (2v₀)² / fr

           d = 4 (½ m v₀² / fr)

           d = 4 d₀o

How can a global dependence on fossil fuels have associated social costs?
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Global dependence on fossil fuels has associated social costs.

Explanation:

Increased dependence on fossil fuels reduces their availability. When the demand is high and the availability is low, the price rises. Not every nation would then be able to afford buying fossil fuels at such high costs.

Developing and underdeveloped countries would then be left behind and only the wealthy nations would be able to afford fossil fuel purchase. This would be the immediate impact of global dependence on fossil fuels.

Fossil fuels are mainly coal, petroleum and natural gas. Since fossil fuels are non-renewable in nature over exploitation may lead to fossil fuels getting exhausted.

Answer:

Q = 1.2*10⁻¹² C

Explanation:

  • For any capacitor, by definition the capacitance C is equal to the relationship between the charge on one of the conductors and the potential difference between them, as follows:

       C = \frac{Q}{V}  (1)

  • For the special case of a parallel plate capacitor, just by application of Gauss' law to a rectangular surface half out of the outer surface, and half inside it, it can be showed that the value of the capacitance C is a parameter defined only by geometric constants, as follows:

       C = \frac{\epsilon_{0}*\epsilon _{r} * A}{d}  (2)

  • So, due to the left sides in (1) and (2) are equal each other, right sides must be equal too.
  • Replacing ε₀, εr (dielectric constant), A, d and V by their values, we can solve for Q, as follows:

       Q =\frac{\epsilon_{0} * \epsilon_{r} *A* V}{d} = \frac{(8.85*(4.7)^{2}*79.5)e-24 (F/m*m2*V)}{1.3e-8m} =  1.2e-12 C = 1.2 pC  (3)
