Answer:

Waxing Gibbous

Third quarter

Waning Gibbous

Explanation:

If moon rises at 3:00 pm then the phase of the moon will be "Waxing Gibbous".

This is because, the moon is actually not fully illuminated but has achieved more than half of its full illumination.

If the moon is highest in the sky at sunrise then the phase of the Moon will be the "Third quarter"

This is because of the fact that at this position moon will rise at midnight, thus it will be at the highest point at the time of the sunrise.

If the moon sets at 10:00 am then the phase of the Moon is "Waning Gibbous"

This is because of the fact that at this position the Moon is moving towards becoming new Moon but at the same time, the moon is illuminated more than its half illumination.

A 85 kg lineman tackles a 90 kg receiver. The receiver is running 5.8 m/s, and the lineman is moving 4.1 m/s, at a right angle t

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

3.59 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of lineman,m=85 kg

Mass of receiver,m'=90 kg

Speed of receiver,v'=5.8 m/s

Speed of lineman,v=4.1 m/s

$\theta=90^{\circ}$

We have to find the their velocity immediately after the tackle.

Initial momentum, $P_i=\sqrt{p^2_1+p^2_2}=\sqrt{(85\times 4.1)^2+(90\times 5.8)^2}=627.6 kgm/s$

According to law of conservation of momentum

Initial momentum=Final momentum= $(m+m')V$

$627.6=(85+90)V=175V$

$V=\frac{627.6}{175}=3.59 m/s$

Naddika [18.5K]

Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion.Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position.

To calculate displacement, simply draw a vector from your starting point to your final position and solve for the length of this line. If your starting and ending position are the same, like your circular 5K route, then your displacement is 0. In physics, displacement is represented by Δs.

For me to solve this I would need to know the time, but I can give you a handy displacement calculator I used that helped me.

Hope I helped.

8. When you see a stopped local bus (1 point)

elena55 [62]

Answer: be alert for pedestrians near the bus.

Explanation: Due to road accidents many Governments around the world has adopted and put in place certain rules and regulations with regards to road safety, this is so to prevent the or reduce the chances of accidents happening.

Road safety rules are rules and guidelines put in place by Government in order to prevent road accidents and maintain a free flow of traffic. An example of such rules is 'be alert for pedestrians near the bus ' when approaching a local bus that is stopped.

If a basball is project upwards from the ground level with an initial velovaity of 32 feet per second, then it's height is a fun

inessss [21]

Answer:

Maximum height reached by the ball is 32 meters.

Explanation:

It is given that,

If a baseball is project upwards from the ground level with an initial velocity of 32 feet per second, then it's height is a function of time. The equation is given as :

$s=-8t^2+32t$ ...........(1)

t is the time taken

s is the height attained as a function of time.

Maximum height achieved can be calculated as :

$\dfrac{ds}{dt}=0$

$\dfrac{d(-8t^2+32t)}{dt}=0$

-16 t + 32 = 0

t = 2 seconds

Put the value of t in equation (1) as :

$s=-8(2)^2+32(2)$

s = 32 meters

So, the maximum height reached by the ball is 32 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which of the following would decrease the magnetic field around a wire?

shusha [124]

The correct answer is
A. decreasing the current

In fact, the magnetic field produced by a current carrying wire is given by
 $B(r) = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}$
where
 $\mu_0$ is the vacuum permeability
I is the current in the wire
r is the distance from the wire at which the field is calculated

We see from the formula that the intensity of the field, B, is directly proportional to the current I, so if the current decreases, the magnetic field strength B decreases as well.
