How often does the moon go through an entire set of phases

Physics
1 answer:
kirza4 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: About 29.5 days.

Explanation: It takes 27 days, 7 hours, and 43 minutes for our Moon to complete one full orbit around Earth. This is called the sidereal month, and is measured by our Moon's position relative to distant “fixed” stars. However, it takes our Moon about 29.5 days to complete one cycle of phases (from new Moon to new Moon).

A 25 kg child runs at a speed of 5.0 m/s and jumps onto a stationary shopping cart and holds on for dear life. The cart has mass
makkiz [27]

Answer:

3.38 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of child = m₁ = 25

Initial speed of child = u₁ = 5 m/s

Initial speed of cart = u₂ = 0 m/s

Mass of cart = m₂ = 12 kg

Velocity of cart with child on top = v

This is a case of perfectly inelastic collision

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)v\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{25\times 5+12\times 0}{25+12}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{125}{37}\\\Rightarrow v=3.38\ m/s

Velocity of cart with child on top is 3.38 m/s

A car that is standing still accelerates up a hill with a slope of 6.4% at an average acceleration of 2.93 ft/s^2. The hill is 1
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

213 s

Explanation:

Slope is the ratio of change in vertical distance to change in horizontal distance.

Slope = vertical height / horizontal height

Therefore:

6.4% = vertical height / 12.42

vertical height = 6.4% * 12.42

vertical height = 0.8 miles

The distance travelled by the car (s) is:

s² = 0.8² + 12.42²

s² = 154.9

s = 12.45 miles

Acceleration (a) =  2.93 ft/s^2 = 0.00055 mile/s²

initial velocity (u) = 0, final velocity = 203 mph

Using:

s = ut + 0.5at²

12.45 = 0.5(0.00055)t²

t =213 s
