Answer:
y = 138.96 m
Explanation:
The angle subtended by the moon is the mean of the angle of the arc between the two most extreme points of the moon, we can see that the angle is very small, so we can approximate this arc to a straight line and then use the trigonometric relationships
sin θ = y / L
where L = 15.9 10³ m and θ = 8.74 10⁻³ rad
y = L sin θ
y = 15.9 10³ sin (8.74 10⁻³)
y = 15.9 10³ 0.0087399
y = 138.96 m
1 watt = 1 joule/sec
1800 watts = 1800 joules/sec
(1800 J/sec) x (20 min) x (60 sec/min)
= (1800 x 20 x 60) joules = 2,160,000 joules .
( 2.16 megajoules )
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The crust of the Earth is broken into many pieces called plates. The plates "float" on the soft, plastic mantle which is located below the crust, aka asthenosphere
