Answer:
Scientists have studied eclipses since ancient times. Aristotle observed that the Earth's shadow has a circular shape as it moves across the moon. He posited that this must mean the Earth was round. Another Greek astronomer named Aristarchus used a lunar eclipse to estimate the distance of the Moon and Sun from Earth
Answer:
3360 N
Explanation:
In a first-class lever, the effort force and load force are on opposite sides of the fulcrum.
The lever is 5 m long. The load force is 1.50 m from the fulcrum, so the effort force must be 3.50 m from the fulcrum.
The torques are equal:
Fr = Fr
(1440 N) (3.5 m) = F (1.5 m)
F = 3360 N

The acceleration of gravity on or near the surface of the Earth is 9.8 m/s².
Anything acted on only by gravity loses 9.8 m/s of upward speed, or gains
9.8 m/s of downward speed, every second.
Leaping straight upward at 1.8 m/s, Tina keeps rising until she runs out of
upward speed. That happens in (1.8/9.8) = 0.1837 second after the leap.
After that, Finkel's First Law of Motion takes over:
"What goes up must come down."
The dropping part of the leap is symmetrical with the first. Please don't
make me go through proving it. Tina hits the floor at the same speed of
1.8 m/s with which she left it, and it takes the same amount of time to drop
from the peak to the floor as it took to rise from the floor to the peak.
So her total time out of contact with the floor is
2 x (0.1837 sec) = 0.367 second (rounded)
Answer:
velocity

the displacement of an object during a specific unit of time.
