Synodic month, also known as a lunar month.
Answer:
The new speed is 56.25 miles/hour.
Explanation:
Since speed = distance/time;
time = distance/speed.
While driving at 50 miles/hour, time taken for one to complete 1 mile is (1/50) hour
(1/50) hour = (1/50) × 3600s = 72 seconds.
So, if this time to complete 1 mile (72 seconds) is reduced by 8 seconds,
New time to complete 1 mile will be = 72 - 8 = 64 seconds = (64/3600) hour = 0.0178 hour
New speed would be = (1 mile/64 seconds) = (1 mile/0.0178 hour) = 56.25 miles/hour.
Hope this Helps!!!
Gain in decibels is given by;
Gain db = 10*log (Po/Pi), where Po = Power output, Pin = Power input
Substituting;
Gain in db = 10 * log (50/5) = 10 db
It slows the object down so it cannot move well and evetually the object cannot be pushed and farther
We know that the source of light in the universe is the Sun. Hence, the light we see as moonlight travels from the Sun's surface, to the moon, then to Earth. So, before being able to solve this problem, we have to know the distance between the Sun and the moon, and the distance between the moon and Earth. In literature, these values are 3.8×10⁵ km (Sun to moon) and 384,400 km (moon to Earth). Knowing that the speed of light is 300,000 km per second, then the total time would be
Time = distance/speed
Time = (3.8×10⁵ km + 384,400 km)/300,000 km/s
Time = 2.548 seconds
Thus, it only takes 2.548 for the light from the Sun to reach to the Earth as perceived to be what we call moonlight.
