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.

A train is travelling towards the station on a straight track. It is a certain distance from the station when the engineer appli
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

500 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 50 m/s

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = -2.5 m/s²

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=50-2.5\times t\\\Rightarrow \frac{-50}{-2.5}=t\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s

Time taken by the train to stop is 20 seconds

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=50\times 20+\frac{1}{2}\times -2.5\times 20^2\\\Rightarrow s=500\ m

∴ The engineer applied the brakes 500 m from the station

what is the dot product and cross product of of two vectors if the angle is between them is 90 degree?​
DaniilM [7]

\sf{\pink{\underline{\underline{\blue{GIVEN:-}}}}}

  • The angle between the two vectors is 90° .

\sf{\pink{\underline{\underline{\blue{TO\: FIND:-}}}}}

  1. The dot product of two vectors .
  2. The cross product of two vectors .

\sf{\pink{\underline{\underline{\blue{SOLUTION:-}}}}}

⚡ Let \rm{\vec{a}} and \rm{\vec{b}} are the two vectors .

✍️ We have know that,

\orange\bigstar\:\rm{\pink{\boxed{\green{\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\cos{\theta}\:}}}}

Where,

  • θ = 90°

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\cos{90^{\degree}}\:}

  • cos 90° = <u>0</u>

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\times{0}\:}

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:0\:}

\rm{\red{\therefore}} [1] The dot product of two vectors is “ <u>0</u> ” .

✍️ We have know that,

\orange\bigstar\:\rm{\pink{\boxed{\green{\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\sin{\theta}\:}}}}

Where,

  • θ = 90°

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\sin{90^{\degree}}\:}

  • sin 90° = <u>1</u>

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\times{1}\:}

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\:}

\rm{\red{\therefore}} [2] The cross product of two vectors is “ <u>ab</u> ” .

Calculate the power of an engine which can supply 60kg of energy per minute​
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

1 Watt

Explanation:

Power (P) = w / Δt

w = work done

Δt = change in time

Power (P) = 60kg / 60 seconds

Power (P) = 1 Watt
