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

victus00 [196]

Two resistor of 2Ω in series parallel to resistor 5Ω in series to a 2Ω resistor. This configuration gives to us an equivalent resistor of 2.55Ω.

To solve this problem we have to use the rules of conection of resistor in series and parallel.

A resistor R1 in serie with other resistor R2 gives us an equivalent resistor Req= R1 + R2.

A resistor R1 in parallel with other resistor R2 gives us an equivalent resistor Req = R1.R2/R1+R2.

The circuit that show an arregement of resistor which we obtain a equivalent resistor of 2.5Ω from three resistor of 2Ω and 5Ω respectively is attached in the image:

The diameter of an automobile tire is closest to
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

(1)  10^−2 m

Explanation:

The diameter of the tire of an automobile is generally expressed in centimetres; we can say that the diameter of a tire is generally about

d = 20 cm (20 centimetres)

Now we have to verify which option is closest to this value. To do that, we have to keep in mind the equivalence between metres and centimetres; in fact, we have:

1 cm = 10^{-2} m

This means that we can rewrite the diameter of the tire of a car as

d=20 cm = 20\cdot 10^{-2} m

By comparing it with the given options, we see that the closest option is

(1)  10^−2 m

which is therefore the correct answer.

a trcuk weighs four times as much as a stationary car. if teh truck coasts into the car at 12 km/s and they stick toegther, what
Andrews [41]

Answer:

  v=9.6 km/s

Explanation:

Given that

The mass of the car =  m

The mass of the truck = 4 m

The velocity of the truck ,u= 12 km/s

The final velocity when they stick = v

If there is no any external force on the system  then the total linear momentum of the system will be conserve.

Pi = Pf

m x 0 + 4 m x 12 = (m + 4 m) x v

0 + 48 m = 5 m v

5  v  = 48

v=\dfrac{48}{5}\ km/s

v=9.6 km/s

Therefore the final velocity will be 9.6 km/s.

A missle is flying at a speed 125 m/s. if the missle has a mass of 125 kg. What’s it’s kinetic energy
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

976562.5\ Joules

Explanation:

We\ are\ given:\\The\ mass\ of\ the\ missile=125\ kg\\The\ velocity\ of\ the\ missile=125\ m/s\\Hence,\\As\ we\ know\ that,\\Kinetic\ energy\ possessed\ by\ an\ object\ with\ mass\ m\ moving\\ with\ a\ velocity\ v:\\E_k=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\Here,\\The\ Kinetic\ Energy\ possessed\ by\ the\ missile=\frac{1}{2}*125*(125)^2=976562.5\ Joules
