Why are there temperature differences on the moon's surface even though there is no atmosphere present?

nika2105 [10]

The lack of an atmosphere means convection cannot happen on the moon. Therefore, there is no form of heat dissipation on regions in direct sunlight. In addition, the lack of an atmosphere means there is no greenhouse effect on the moon. This is why regions facing away from sunlight are very cold.

The diagram shows two charged objects, X and Y.

masya89 [10]

The missing diagram is in the attachments.

Answer: X: positive Y: positive

Explanation: Electric field is a vector quantity, which means it can be represented by a vector arrow: the arrow points in the direction of electric field and its length represents the magnitude at a given location. There are another representation of the electric field called electric field lines, <u>in which the line points away from a positively charged source and towards a negatively charged source</u>. This occurs because it follows a pattern, where the lines points in the direction that a positive test charge would have if it is accelerating on the line.

Analyzing the diagram, it can be observed that the lines are pointing away from both of the charged objects. Therefore, both X and Y are <u>positively charged</u>.

Humans first traveled to the Moon in a spacecraft in 1969. What happened as the spacecraft traveled farther from Earth?

horsena [70]

Answer:

The answer is C)The force of gravity from Earth acting on the spacecraft decreased because the distance from Earth increased.

Explanation:

Gravity, a force, is dependent on the mass of the object exerting the gravity and the distance of an outside object from that object. The larger the object, the more gravity it will exert on an outside object. This force decreases as you move away from the object, but it will always still exist and never be equal to 0.

Coherent light of wavelength 525 nm passes through two thin slits that are 4.15Ã—10^(âˆ’2) mm apart and then falls on a screen 7

IRINA_888 [86]

A) 4.7 cm

The formula for the angular spread of the nth-maximum from the central bright fringe for a diffraction from two slits is

$sin \theta=\frac{n \lambda}{d}$

where

n is the order of the maximum

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

$a$ is the distance between the slits

In this problem,

n = 5

$\lambda=525 nm =5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m$

$a=4.15\cdot 10^{-2} mm=4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m$

So we find

$\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{(5)(5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m})=3.62^{\circ}$

And given the distance of the screen from the slits,

$D=75.0 cm = 0.75 m$

The distance of the 5th bright fringe from the central bright fringe will be given by

$y=D tan \theta = (0.75 m)tan 3.62^{\circ}=0.047 m = 4.7 cm$

B) 8.1 cm

The formula to find the nth-minimum (dark fringe) in a diffraction pattern from double slit is a bit differente from the previous one:

$sin \theta=\frac{(n+\frac{1}{2}) \lambda}{d}$

To find the angle corresponding to the 8th dark fringe, we substitute n=8:

$\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{(8+\frac{1}{2})(5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m})=6.17^{\circ}$

And the distance of the 8th dark fringe from the central bright fringe will be given by

$y=D tan \theta = (0.75 m)tan 6.17^{\circ}=0.081 m = 8.1 cm$
