Answer:

Neap tides, which also occur twice a month, happen when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other. ... This occurs twice each month. The moon appears new (dark) when it is directly between the Earth and the sun. The moon appears full when the Earth is between the moon and the sun.

A research group at Dartmouth College has developed a Head Impact Telemetry (HIT) System that can be used to collect data about

Olin [163]

Answer:

6.05 cm

Explanation:

The given equation is

2 aₓ(x-x₀)=( Vₓ²-V₀ₓ²)

The initial head velocity V₀ₓ =11 m/s

The final head velocity Vₓ is 0

The accelerationis given by =1000 m/s²

the stopping distance = x-x₀=?

So we can wind the stopping distance by following formula

2 (-1000)(x-x₀)=[ $0^{2} -11^{2}$ ]

x-x₀=6.05* $10^{-2}$ m

=6.05 cm

8. John has to hit a bottle with a ball to win a prize. He throws a 0.4 kg ball with a velocity of 18 m/s. It hits a 0.2 kg bott

nasty-shy [4]

Answer: The ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the bottle.

Explanation:

To calculate the speed of ball after the collision, we use the equation of law of conservation of momentum, which is given by:

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

where,

$m_1,u_1\text{ and }v_1$ are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of ball.

$m_2,u_2\text{ and }v_2$ are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of bottle.

We are given:

$m_1=0.4kg\\u_1=18m/s\\v_1=?m/s\\m_2=0.2kg\\u_2=0m/s\\v_2=25m/s$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$(0.4\times 18)+(0.2\times 0)=(0.4\times v_1)+(0.2\times 25)\\\\v_1=5.5m/s$

Hence, the ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the bottle.

If two children, with masses of 16 kg and 25 kg, sit in seats opposite one another in a rotating merry-go-round with an arm leng

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

$92.25 kgm^2$

Explanation:

Assume both children bodies are point particles. The total moment of inertia about the rotation axis of 2 points particles of mass 16 kg and 25 kg at 1.5 m arm length is

$\sum I = m_1r_1^2 + m_2r_2^2$

where $m_1 = 16 kg, m_2 = 25 kg$ are the masses of 2 children $r_1 = R-2 = 1.5m$ are their distance to the center of rotation

$\sum I = 16*1.5^2 + 25*1.5^2 = 1.5^2(16 + 25) = 92.25 kgm^2$

What is described by the terms body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic?

Montano1993 [528]

In physical chemistry, the terms body-centered cubic (BCC) and face-centered cubic (FCC) refer to the cubic crystal system of a solid. Each solid is made up simple building blocks called lattice units. There are different layouts of a lattice unit.

It is better understood using 3-D models shown in the picture. A BCC unit cell has one lattice point in the center, together with eight corner atoms which represents 1/8 of an atom. Therefore, there are 1+ 8(1/8) = 2 atoms in a BCC unit cell. On the other hand, a FCC unit cell is composed of half of an atom in each of its faces and 1/8 of an atom in its corners. Therefore, there are (1/2)6 + (1/8)8 = 4 atoms in a FCC unit cell.
