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.

A sample of helium has a volume of 12.7 m3. The temperature is raised to 323 K at which time the gas occupies 32.5 m3? Assume pr

jasenka [17]

Answer: The original temperature was

$T_{1}=126.51K$

Explanation:

Let's put the information in mathematical form:

$V_{1}=12.7m^{3}$

$T_{1}=?$

$V_{2}=32.5m^{3}$

$T_{2}=323K$

$P_{1}=P_{2}=3atm$

If we consider the helium as an ideal gas, we can use the Ideal Gas Law:

$PV=nRT$

were <em>R</em> is the gas constant. And <em>n</em> is the number of moles (which we don't know yet)

From this, taking $R=0.08205746\frac{atm.l}{mol.K}$ , we have:

$n=\frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{RT_{2}}$

⇒ $n=3.67mol$

Now:

$T_{1}=\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{nR}$

⇒ $T_{1}=126.51K$

Determine the linear velocity of an object with an angular velocity of 5.9 radians per second at a distance of 12 centimeters fr

Andre45 [30]

The linear velocity of a rotating object is the product of the angular velocity and the radius of the circular motion. Angular velocity is the rate of the change of angular displacement of a body that is in a circular motion. It is a vector quantity so it consists of a magnitude and direction. From the problem, the angular velocity is 5.9 rad per second and the radius is given as 12 centimeters. We calculate as follows:

Linear velocity = angular velocity (radius)
Linear velocity = 5.9 (12 ) = 70.8 cm / s

The linear velocity of the body in motion is 70.8 centimeters per second or 0.708 meters per second.

A car has a mass of 1000 kg and accelerates at 2 m/s2. What net force is exerted on the car?

prisoha [69]

Answer:

1000N

Explanation:

Based on force=mass*acceleration, if the acceleration is constant at 2 metres per second squared, 1,000kg*2m/s^2=2,000N of force.

If the acceleration steadily increases to 2m/s^2 in 20 seconds, take the average which is 1m/s^2 therefore force=1,000N
