Why are some areas in Europe seeing a partial solar eclipse while others are observing a total solar eclipse?

Physics
1 answer:
GuDViN [60]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Objects between the source and observer produce possible shadows known as the umbra and the penumbra.

The umbra is a totally shadowed area, no light travels directly from the source to the observer.

The penumbra is a partially shadowed are where some of the source light travels directly to the observer an some of the source light is blocked from the observer (the object blocking the light is not a point object).

The question apparently refers to the differences seen by the observers.

Consider the two rotating pulley-like systems above. They are identical in every way EXCEPT the mass of the pulley on the left i
____ [38]

Answer:

Consider the two rotating pulley-like systems above. They are identical in every way EXCEPT the mass of the pulley on the left is concentrated on the outside edge (ring or hoop shape), while the mass of pulley on the right is evenly distributed throughout the pulley (disc or cylinder shape). Given R =0.15m, M =0.6 kg, and m= 0.5 kg. Both pulley systems are initially at rest and the block masses are a height of 0. 8m above the ground.

Explanation:

If both masses are released at the same time, which pulley will hit the ground first

A lumberjack is chopping wood with an ax. How does the ax make the lumberjack's job easier? A. The ax is heavy so it can split w
zhenek [66]

Answer: B

Explanation:

A machine multiplies the work output of a something by some amount. In this question, the ax is the machine. Thus, the ax is multiplying the work outputted by the lumberjack, so the answer is B. The reason it is not C is because there could be other forces interacting on the wood which the ax can affect.

Two Charged spheres of 6.4 nC charge are 16 cm apart. What is the magnitude of the field in middle? ( n = 10^-9, 100 cm = 1 m)
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

zero

Explanation:

q = 6.4 nC = 6.4 x 1 0^-9 C

d = 16 cm = 0.16 m

r = 16 / 2 = 8 cm = 0.08 m

Electric field at P due to the charge placed at A

Ea = k q / r^2

Ea = ( 9 x 10^9 x 6.4 x 10^-9) / (0.08 x 0.08) Towards right

Ea = 9000 Towards right

Electric field at P due to the charge placed at B

Eb = k q / r^2

Eb = ( 9 x 10^9 x 6.4 x 10^-9) / (0.08 x 0.08) Towards left

Eb = 9000 Towards left

The magnitude of electric field is same but teh direction is opposite, so the resultant electric field at P is zero.
