Explain why solar and lunar eclipses happen.

Physics
1 answer:
Alexus [3.1K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

When the Moon passes between Sun and Earth, the lunar shadow is seen as a solar eclipse on Earth. When Earth passes directly between Sun and Moon, its shadow creates a lunar eclipse. ... But lunar eclipses do not occur every month because the Moon's orbit is tilted five degrees from Earth's orbit around the Sun.

Ultraviolet rays are used to _____.
NeTakaya

Answer:

Grow plants where little light is available

Explanation:

The plants need the ultraviolet rays in order to be able to survive and develop. The need mainly comes from the dependence of these rays for production of food, in a process known as photosynthesis. The plants are producers, thus they create their own food. In order to be able to do that they are using the ultraviolet rays, as well as water, and carbon dioxide. By combining them, the plants manage to create glucose for them, and that is their food source. The plants that are kept at places where there's not enough light are often exposed to ultraviolet rays so that they are able to perform the process of photosynthesis and grow properly.

The ball has 7.35 joules of potential energy at position B. At position A, all of the energy changes to kinetic energy. The velo
Lina20 [59]
I assume that the ball is stationary (v=0) at point B, so its total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to 7.35 J. 
At point A, all this energy has converted into kinetic energy, which is:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
And since K=7.35 J, we can find the velocity, v:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 7.35 J}{1.5 kg} }=3.1 m/s

horsena [70]

Answer:

emf will also be 10 times less as compared to when it has fallen 40 \mathrm{m}

Explanation:

We know, from faraday's law-

e m f=-N \frac{\Delta \Phi}{\Delta T}

and \Phi=B . A

So, as the height increases the velocity with which it will cross the ring will also increase. (v=\sqrt{2 g h})

Given

\mathrm{V} 1(\text { Speed at } 40 \mathrm{m})=2 \mathrm{x} \mathrm{V} 2(\text { speed at } 10 \mathrm{m})

\sqrt{2 g h_{2}}=2 \times \sqrt{2 g h_{1}}=28.28 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

Now, from 40 \mathrm{cm}

V_{3}=\sqrt{2 g h_{3}}=\sqrt{2 \times 10 \times 0.4}=2.82 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

From equation a and b we see that velocity when dropped from 40 \mathrm{m} is 10 times greater when height is 40 \mathrm{cm} so, emf will also be 10 times less as compared to when it has fallen 40 \mathrm{m}

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, what do you need to do
Alexxandr [17]

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, then you need to do extra work than the earlier

<h3>What is work done?</h3>

The total amount of energy transferred when a force is applied to move an object through some distance

Work Done = Force * Displacement

For example, let us suppose a force of 10 N is used to displace an object by a displacement of 5 m then the work done on the object can be calculated by the above-mentioned formula

work done = 10 N ×5 m

                 =50 N m

Thus, when an object's mass is increased and it is desired to move it a certain distance, more work must be done than previously.

That's false. Displacement would be (r2 - r1) .
