Answer:

The eight Moon phases:

Waxing Crescent: In the Northern Hemisphere, we see the waxing crescent phase as a thin crescent of light on the right. First Quarter: We see the first quarter phase as a half moon. Waxing Gibbous: The waxing gibbous phase is between a half moon and full moon.

The phases of the Moon are the different ways the Moon looks from Earth over about a month. As the Moon orbits around the Earth, the half of the Moon that faces the Sun will be lit up. The different shapes of the lit portion of the Moon that can be seen from Earth are known as phases of the Moon.

<h2>The 8 phases (in order) are:</h2>

New moon.
Waxing Crescent.
First Quarter.
Waxing Gibbous.
Full moon.
Waning Gibbous.
Third Quarter.
Waning Crescent.

2. An object with moment of inertia ????1 = 9.7 x 10−4 kg ∙ m2 rotates at a speed of 3.0 rev/s. A 20 g mass with moment of inert

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

2.85 rad/s

Explanation:

5 cm = 0.05 m

20 g = 0.02 kg

When dropping the 2nd object at a distance of 0.05 m from the center of mass, its corrected moments of inertia is:

$I_2 = 1.32\times10^{−6} + 0.02 * 0.05^2 = 0.513\times10^{-4} kgm^2$

So the total moment of inertia of the system of 2 objects after the drop is:

$I = I_1 + I_2 = 9.7\times10^{-4} + 0.513\times10^{-4} = 0.0010213 kgm^2$

From here we can apply the law of angular momentum conservation to calculate the post angular speed

$\omega_1 I_1 = \omega_2 I$

$\omega_2 = \omega_1 \frac{I_1}{I} = 3 \frac{9.7\times10^{-4}}{0.0010213} = 2.85 rad/s$

Based on your observations of the six collisions, describe the physical difference between elastic and inelastic collisions.

Ahat [919]

Answer:

Collisions are basically two types: Elastic, and inelastic collision. Elastic collision is defined as the colliding objects return quickly without undergoing any heat generation. Inelastic collision is defined as the where heat is generated, and colliding objects are distorted.

In elastic collision, the total kinetic energy, momentum are conserved, and there is no wasting of energy occurs. Swinging balls is the good example of elastic collision. In inelastic collision, the energy is not conserved it changes from one form to another for example thermal energy or sound energy. Automobile collision is good example, of inelastic collision.

The 0.5kg soccer ball moves toward the net with a force of 4N. What is its acceleration?

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

8 m/s²

Explanation:

Given,

Force ( F ) = 4 N

Mass ( m ) = 0.5 kg

To find : -

Acceleration ( a ) = ?

Formula : -

F = ma

a = F / m

= 4 / 0.5

= 40 / 5

a = 8 m/s²

It's acceleration is 8 m/s².
