Answer:

From our perspective on Earth, two types of eclipses occur: lunar, the blocking of the Moon by Earth's shadow, and solar, the obstruction of the Sun by the Moon. When the Moon passes between Sun and Earth, the lunar shadow is seen as a solar eclipse on Earth.

Hopes this helps

Andreas93 [3]
The answer is D statement "Their temperatures are not the same but you can't tell which is greater without a thermometer". The iceberg can move through the ocean and passed through a various temperature of the ocean. The ocean stays at the same temperature whether it's lower or higher than the iceberg's temperature because of the salt.

Orange light of wavelength 0.61 µ m in air enters a block of glass with εr = 1.44. What color would it appear to a sensor embedd
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

0.5083\ \mu m

Explanation:

\lambda_0 = Actual wavelength = 0.61\ \mu m

\varepsilon_r = Relative permittivity = 1.44

The observed wavelength in the glass is given by

\lambda=\dfrac{\lambda_0}{\sqrt{\varepsilon_r}}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{0.61}{\sqrt{1.44}}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=0.5083\ \mu m

The wavelength lies in the range of green light.

Hence, the observed color of light is 0.5083\ \mu m

Alan leaves Los Angeles at 8:00 a.m. to drive to San Francisco, 400 mi away. He travels at a steady 46.0 mph . Beth leaves Los A
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

25 min, 48 sec

Explanation:

Alan:

t = d/v

  = 400 mi / 46 mph = 8.70 hr

So it took Alan 8.70 hrs; from 8 am, that's 4:42 pm that he arrives.

t = d/v

  = 400 mi / 55 mph = 7.27 hr

So it took Beth 7.27 hrs; from 9 am, that's 4:16:12 that she arrives.

4:42 - 4:16:12 = 25.8 minutes = 25 minutes, 48 sec

Consider a heat engine that inputs 10 kJ of heat and outputs 5 kJ of work. What are the signs on the total heat transfer and tot
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Total heat transfer is positive

Total work transfer is positive

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that when a system interacts with its surrounding, the amount of energy gained by the system must be equal to the amount of energy lost by the surrounding. In a closed system, exchange of energy with the surrounding can be done through heat and work transfer.

Heat transfer to a system is positive and that transferred from the system is negative.

Also, work done by a system is positive while the work done on the system is negative.

Therefore, from the question, since the heat engine inputs 10kJ of heat, then heat is being transferred to the system. Hence, the sign of the total heat transfer is positive (+ve)

Also, since the heat engine outputs 5kJ of work, it implies that work is being done by the system. Hence the sign of the total work transfer is also positive (+ve).
