Answer:

As moon goes round the earth we see the 50% surface only on full moon nights.

In the picture inner moon shows the actual illumination and outer moons shows our view from Earth

A frog falls from its rainforest tree. If we ignore wind resistance, (a) how much time does it take the frog to fall a distance
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Using the equation of motion

S = ut + 1/2gt²

S is the distance of fall

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken

Given S = 12.0m, g = 9.81m/s^2, un= 0m/s

12 = 0+1/2(9.81)t²

12 = 4.905t²²²

t² = 12/4.905

t² = 2.446

t = √2.446

t = 1.56secs

b) To determine how fast is the frog falling at this point, we need to calculate the speed of the frog. Using the equaton v = u+gt

v = 0+9.81(1.56)

v = 15.34m/s

Hence the frog is falling at the rate of 15.34m/s

A rock has a mass of 3.1 kg. What is its weight on earth
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

W = 30.38 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a rock, m = 3.1 kg

We need to find the weight of the rock on the surface of Earth. Weight of an object is given by :

W = mg

g is the acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

W = 3.1 kg × 9.8 m/s²

= 30.38 N

So, the weight of the rock on the Earth is 30.38 N.

A wave with 2.0 m amplitude has a frequency of 500 Hz is travelling at a speed of 200 m/s. What is the wavelength?
Serggg [28]

Answer: 0.4m

Explanation:

Given that:

Amplitude of wave = 2.0 m

Wavelength (λ)= ?

Frequency F = 500Hz

Speed V = 200 m/s

The wavelength is measured in metres, and represented by the symbol λ.

So, apply the formula:

Wavespeed V= Frequency F xwavelength λ

200m/s = 500Hz x λ

λ = 200m/s / 500Hz

λ = 0.4m

Thus, the wavelength is 0.4 metres

A ball is shot straight up into the air from the ground with initial velocity of 44ft/sec44ft/sec. assuming that the air resista
solniwko [45]
Convert the given in SI units.

         (44 ft/sec)(1 m/ 3.28 ft) = 13.41 m/sec

The distance traveled and the initial velocity can be related through the equation,
  
   d = (Vf)² - (Vi)²/ 2a

where d is the distance, Vf is the final velocity, Vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration due to gravity. Substituting the known values from the given above,

    d = ((0 m/s)² - (13.41 m/s)²)/ 2(-9.8 m/s²)

The value of d from the equation,

    d = 9.17 meters

Convert this to feet,

    d = (9.17 m)(3.28 ft / 1 m) = 30 ft

Answer: 30 ft
