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.

Gayle runs at a speed of 3.85 m/s and dives on a sled, initially at rest on the top of a frictionless snow-covered hill. After s
enot [183]

Answer:

Final velocity at the bottom of hill is 15.56 m/s.

Explanation:

The given problem can be divided into four parts:

1. Use conservation of momentum to determine the speed of the combined mass (Gayle and sled)

From the law of conservation of momentum (perfectly inelastic collision), the combined velocity is given as:  

p_i = p_f  

m_1u_1 + m_2v_2 = (m_1 + m_2)v

v = \frac{(m_1u_1 + m_2v_2)}{(m_1 + m_2)}

v=\frac{[50.0\ kg)(3.85\ m/s) + 0]}{(50.0\ kg + 5.00\ kg)}= 3.5\ m/s  

2. Use conservation of energy to determine the speed after traveling a vertical height of 5 m.

The velocity of Gayle and sled at the instant her brother jumps on is found from the law of conservation of energy:  

E(i) = E(f)  

KE(i) + PE(i) = KE(f) + PE(f)  

0.5mv^2(i) + mgh(i) = 0.5mv^2(f) + mgh(f)  

v(f) = \sqrt{[v^2(i) + 2g(h(i) - h(f))]}

Here, initial velocity is the final velocity from the first stage. Therefore:  

v(f) = \sqrt{[(3.5)^2+2(9.8)(5.00-0)]}= 10.5\ m/s

3. Use conservation of momentum to find the combined speed of Gayle and her brother.  

Given:

Initial velocity of Gayle and sled is, u_1(i)=10.5 m/s

Initial velocity of her brother is, u_2(i)=0 m/s

Mass of Gayle and sled is, m_1=55.0 kg

Mass of her brother is, m_2=30.0 kg

Final combined velocity is given as:

v(f) = \frac{[m_1u_1(i) + m_2u_2(i)]}{(m_1 + m_2)}  

v(f)=\frac{[(55.0)(10.5) + 0]}{(55.0+30.0)}= 6.79 m/s  

4. Finally, use conservation of energy to determine the final speed at the bottom of the hill.

Using conservation of energy, the final velocity at the bottom of the hill is:  

E(i) = E(f)  

KE(i) + PE(i) = KE(f) + PE(f)  

0.5mv^2(i) + mgh(i) = 0.5mv^2(f) + mgh(f)  

v(f) = \sqrt{[v^2(i) + 2g(h(i) - h(f))]} \\v(f)=\sqrt{[(6.79)^2 + 2(9.8)(15 - 5.00)]}\\v(f)= 15.56\ m/s
