Answer:

2) Earth

Explanation:

As per Kepler's first law we know that all planets and all satellites revolves in elliptical path with one of its focii as Sun or planet around which satellite and planets are revolving.

Now here we need to know about the focii of moon which is revolving around Earth in its elliptical path.

So as per same law we can say that since moon is revolving around the Earth so its focii must be Earth

So here correct answer would be

2) Earth

The question is oversimplified, and pretty sloppy.

Relative to the Earth . . .
The Moon is in an elliptical orbit around us, with a period of
27.32... days, and with the Earth at one focus of the ellipse.

Relative to the Sun . . .
The Moon is in an elliptical orbit around the Sun, with a period
of 365.24... days, and with the Sun at one focus of the ellipse,
and the Moon itself makes little dimples or squiggles in its orbit
on account of the gravitational influence of the nearby Earth.

I'm sorry if that seems complicated.  You know that motion is
always relative to something, and the solar system is not simple.

When sitting in the tree the cat has a total of 1375J in its Gravitational potential store. What is the maximum amount of energy
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

1375J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential/potential energy of the at the top of the tree which is the energy by virtue of its position.

P.E = mgh

mass = m

Acceleration due to gravity = g

height = h

At the top of the tree, the value of h (height) is high resulting in the gravitational potential. When the cat lands on the ground, the value of h is zero, the the gravitational potential would be zero and all the potential energy have been converted to other forms of energy.

Therefore, the total gravitational potential store is equal to the maximum amount of energy that can be transferred which is equal to 1375J.

When light falls on a soap bubble or on the oily film spread on a water puddle, a spectrum of colors is observed. How is this sp
mylen [45]

When the light falls on a soap bubble spread on a water puddle, and a spectrum of color is observed due to constructive and destructive of light waves which means option (3) is correct. Light waves interfere into each other to produce a spectrum which consists of bright and dark fringes.

What property of a wave remains unchanged when a wave enters a different medium? 5 points amplitude frequency wavelength velocit
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Frequency

Explanation:

The property of waves that remains unchanged as it crosses the boundary of one medium to another is the frequency of the wave.

As a wave moves from one boundary to another, the wavelength and the speed of the wave changes.

The speed of the wave is product of wavelength and frequency. Also, the wavelength of the wave is function of the distance between successive crests or troughs of a wave.

The frequency of a wave is the number of waves that crosses a medium per unit of time.
