Answer: The correct statement is that the Last Quarter Moon (rises near midnight and sets near midday).

Explanation:

Phases of the moon also called the LUNAR PHASE can be defined as the different shades of illumination on the moon as seen from the earth. The moon is the natural satellite of the earth that illuminates upon reflection of light from the sun. This means it doesn't have power to shine on its own. When carefully observed, there are times it gets dark and beings to glow brighter over a period of time. This occurs because as the moon completes its four weeks lunar cycle round the earth, how much of its face we see illuminated by sunlight depends on the angle the Sun makes with the Moon.

There are 8 main types of the moon phases these includes:

--> New moon: This is when the moon is not visible to the earth because it's between the earth and the sun. It rises at sunrise and sets at sunset.

--> The waxing crescent: At this phase the moon gets brighter and illuminated from the sun that a crescent shape is seen.

--> First quarter: this occurs one week after the new moon. The moon rises at noon and sets at midnight.

--> The waxing gibbous: This occurs after the first quarter phase where more than half of the lit part of the moon is seen.

--> Full moon: This occurs when the moon and the sun are opposite each other. That is way it is said to rise at sunset and sets at sun rise.

--> The waning gibbous: this occurs when more than half of the lit part of the moon gradually becomes darker

--> Third quarter ( Last Quarter): The moon rises at midnight and sets at noon. This occurs a week after the full moon.

--> The waning crescent: This occurs after the last quarter phase where a very thin fading crescent shaped moon is seen, just before the Moon is invisible again at the start of the cycle, the new moon.

An object initially at rest experiences an acceleration
lidiya [134]

Answer:

1.4m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity is the total distance covered divided by the total time taken.

 Average velocity  = \frac{total distance }{time }  

 Total time taken  = 5s + 6s  = 11s

The first distance covered  = velocity x time  = 1.4 x 5 = 7m

     second distance covered  = velocity x time  = 1.4 x 6  = 8.4m

So;

  Average velocity  = \frac{7 + 8.4}{11}    = 1.4m/s

Which property best makes radio waves safe for diagnosing illnesses through magnetic resonance imaging?
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

It is used in MRI because it does not damage cells

Radio waves are used for space research because they have very long wavelengths

Explanation:

Many parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are applied in clinical diagnosis and treatment of illnesses. However, these highly ionizing radiation damage cells and its dosage must be carefully managed to avoid creating radiation related health problems for the patients.

Radio waves can be used in MRI without issues because the energy of the radiation is not sufficient to cause damage to cells but is sufficient to provide images for the sake of medical diagnosis.

Secondly, radio waves have long wavelength. This property is suitable for long range

communication. Hence it can be used in space research

24 POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TEA [102]
Potential Energy (Initial one) = m * g * h
P.E. = 60 * 9.8 * 10
P.E. = 5880

Kinetic Energy (Final One) = 1/2 mv²
K.E. = 1/2 * 60 * (10)²
K.E. = 6000/2
K.E. = 3000

Lost Energy = 5880 - 3000 = 2880 J

In short, Your Answer would be 2880 Joules

Hope this helps!
