the Sun.

Ray Of Light [21]3 years ago

Answer:

(4) full moon.

Explanation:

Lunar eclipse can only occur on a full moon night when the sun the earth and the moon are very much in a straight line.

During this period the the light of the sun that incidents on the moon is blocked by the earth and so we have the phases of the moon due to the relative motion of the three bodies which partially enables the light of the sun to reach the moon.

The moon appears orange-red during this time because the light that reaches the moon is after the refraction through the earth's atmosphere from which the other wavelengths have been absorbed by the earth's atmosphere.

Lunar eclipse can only occur at night and hence it can only be observed from about half of the earth.

PLEASE HELP FAST The object distance for a convex lens is 15.0 cm, and the image distance is 5.0 cm. The height of the object is
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The image height is 3.0 cm

Explanation:

Given;

object distance, d_o = 15.0 cm

image distance, d_i = 5.0 cm

height of the object, h_o = 9.0 cm

height of the image, h_i = ?

Apply lens equation;

\frac{h_i}{h_o} = -\frac{d_i}{d_o}\\\\ h_i = h_o(-\frac{d_i}{d_o})\\\\h_i = -9(\frac{5}{15} )\\\\h_i = -3 \ cm

Therefore, the image height is 3.0 cm. The negative values for image height indicate that the image is an inverted image.

Star A and Star B have measured stellar parallax of 1.0 arc second and 0.75 arc second, respectively. Which star is closer? How
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Star A is closer than Star B

Explanation:

As we know that in parallax method of distance measurement the angle subtended by the star when it covers a distance of one Parsec arc length, it is known as parallax angle

Here we can say

angle = \frac{1 Parsec}{distance}

so we have

distance = \frac{1 Parsec}{angle}

so here we have

angle subtended by Star A = 1 arc sec

angle subtended by star B = 0.75 arc sec

now we have

distance for star A is given as

d_a = \frac{1 Parsec}{1} = 1 Parsec

distance of star B is given as

d_b = \frac{1 Parsec}{0.75} = 1.33 Parsec

So star A is closer than star B

What current is needed in the solenoid's wires?
marta [7]
Using Ampere's Law, the magnetic field produced inside this solenoid is given by
B = uo N I / h
where uo is the vacuum permeability, N is the number of turns in the solenoid and h is the length of the solenoid. Earth's magnetic field is around 50 microteslas in North America thus the current needed in the solenoid is
I = B h / (uo N) = (50 E-6 ) (4) / ((4 pi E-7)(6000) ) = 0.026 A
I = 26 mA
So you need a current of around 26 mA.

Which of the objects below has the greatest acceleration? *
lesya692 [45]

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow F=ma

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow a=\dfrac{F}{m}

Now

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow a\propto\dfrac{1}{m}

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow a\propto F

  • Lower mass=Higher acceleration
  • Lower Force=Lower Acceleration

Option B has lowest mass and highest force hence its correct

Describe a process in which energy changes forms at least twice
olga55 [171]
That would be like dropping your cell phone on to the ground by accident. The object (cell phone)'s gravitational potential energy would be converted to kinetic energy or energy in motion more precisely. This is just a hypothetical example though.
