Two students are looking at a brightly lit full Moon, illuminated by the reflected light from the Sun. Consider thefollowing dis

cussion between the two students about what the spectrum of moonlight would look like.Student
1: I think that moonlight is just reflected sunlight, so we will see the Sun’s absorption line spectrum.Student
2: I disagree.An absorption spectrum has to come froma hot, dense object. Since the Moon is not a hot, dense object, it can’t give off an aborption line spectrum.Do you agree or disagree with either or both of the students

Answer:

I agree with the student that think that moonlight is just reflected sunlight, so we will see the Sun’s absorption line spectrum.

Explanation:

Absorption spectrums occur when a white light is passed through a gas. Or simply a light from a hot source passes through a cooler gas. The moon itself is a reflection of the sun, so when it reflects the light from the sun, absorption spectrum lined can be seen. Note that it is the hot gases like hydrogen, oxygen etc in or around the sun that cause absorption spectrum.

A cat, walking along the window ledge of a new york apartment, knocks off a flower pot, which falls to the street 280 feet below
Harlamova29_29 [7]
H = 280 ft, the height of the flower pot.
g = 32 ft/s²

Neglect air resistance.
Note that 1 ft/s = 15/22 mi/h

The initial vertical velocity is zero.
Let v =  the velocity with which the flower pot hits the ground.
Then
v² = 2gh
    = 2*(32 ft/s²)*(280 ft)
    = 17920 (ft/s)²
v = 133.866 ft/s

Also,
v = (133.866 ft/s)*(15/22 (mi/h)/(ft/s)) = 91.272 mi/h

Answer:  133.9 ft/s or 91.3 mi/h
