Answer:

The type and length of a lunar eclipse depend on the Moon's proximity to either node of its orbit. ... A total lunar eclipse can last up to nearly 2 hours, while a total solar eclipse lasts only up to a few minutes at any given place, due to the smaller size of the Moon's shadow.

Examine the reactants of the incomplete double displacement reaction.
Bumek [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

AgCl + NaNO₃

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The reaction between silver nitrate and sodium chloride is an example of a double displacement reaction.
  • In a double displacement reaction compounds or salts reacts and exchange cations or anions to form new compounds or salts.
  • In this case, silver nitrate and sodium chloride exchange anions and cations to form silver chloride and sodium nitrate.
  • Therefore, the complete reaction is given by;

AgNO3 + NaCl → AgCl + NaNO₃

  • But since silver chloride is a precipitate, the reaction may also be an example of a precipitation reaction.

A force of 350N is applied to a body. If the work done is 40kJ, what is the distance through which the body moved?
Studentka2010 [4]

The distance covered by the body is 114.3 m

Explanation:

The work done by a force exerted on an object is given by

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement of the object

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

For the object in this problem, we have

F = 350 N is the force applied

W=40 kJ = 40,000 J is the work done

\theta=0^{\circ} if we assume that the force is applied parallel to the motion of the object

Solving for d, we find the distance covered by the object:

d=\frac{W}{F cos \theta}=\frac{40,000}{(350)(cos 0)}=114.3 m
