The question is incomplete.
The distance between the Moon and Earth influences: 1) the attractive gravitational force between them, 2) the tides, 3) the eclipses, 4) the period of each full turn of the moon around the Earth.
Assuming the question refers to the gravitational attraction, we must use the fact that, as per, Newton's Universal Gravitaional Law, the attractive force between the two bodies is inversely related to the square distance that separates them.
Then, if the Moon were twice as far, the gravitational pull would be one fourth (1/4) of actual pull.
Answer:
The direction of the B-field is in the +y-direction.
Explanation:
The corresponding formula is
This means, we should use right-hand rule.
Our index finger is pointed towards +x-direction (direction of velocity),
our middle finger should point towards the direction of the B-field,
and our thumb should point towards the +z-direction (direction of the force).
Since our middle finger in this situation points towards +y-direction, the B-field should be in +y-direction.
Answer:
λ = 5940 Angstroms
Explanation:
This is an exercise of the relativistic Doppler effect
f’= f √((1- v / c) / (1 + v / c))
Where the speed in between the strr and the observer is positive if they move away
Let's use the relationship
c = λ f
f = c /λ
We replace
c /λ’ = c /λ √ ((1- v / c) / (1 + v / c))
λ = λ’ √ ((1- v / c) / (1 + v / c))
Let's calculate
v = 0.01 c
v = 0.01 3 10⁸
v= 3 10⁶ m / s
λ = 6000 √ [(1- 3 10⁶/3 10⁸) / (1+ 3 10⁶/3 10⁸)]
λ = 6000 √ [0.99 / 1.01]
λ = 5940 Angstroms
There are a variety of waves from light waves to mechanical waves. Waves can exhibit different effects like the Doppler Effect.
All light waves behave in a similar manner. They either get transmitted, reflected, absorbed, refracted, polarized, diffracted, or scattered based off of the composition of the object and the wavelength of the light.
According to Wikipedia, “One important property of mechanical waves is that their amplitudes are measured in an unusual way, displacement divided by (reduced) wavelength. When this gets comparable to unity, significant nonlinear effects such as harmonic generation may occur, and, if large enough, may result in chaotic effects.” Mechanical waves are chaotic and its “amplitudes” are measured unusually.
Diffraction is when light bends around objects and spread after passing out through small openings. “Diffraction occurs with all waves, including sound waves, water waves, and electromagnetic waves such as light that the eye can see.”-Wikipedia. Here is the formula to Diffraction: <em>d </em>sin <em>θ </em>= <em>nλ</em>
Doppler effect can occur for any type of wave like sound or water waves. An example of this is when we hear a police car with its sirens on, coming towards us. The closer you are to the police car, the higher the wavelength, but the farther away you are, the lower the wavelength.

Answer:
(d) a net external force must be acting on the system
Explanation:
Momentum is given as the product of mass and velocity.
P = MV
According to Newton's second law of motion, " Force applied to a body (system) is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum of the body (system) which takes place in the direction of the applied force (external force).
F ∝ΔMV
Therefore, If the total momentum of a system is changing, a net external force must be acting on the system.
(d) a net external force must be acting on the system
