Answer:

The correct answer is the option<u><em> B) It is a lunar eclipse, in which the Earth casts a shadow on the Moon.</em></u>

Explanation:

A lunar eclipse is an astronomical phenomenon that occurs when the Earth passes directly between the Moon and the Sun, causing the Earth's shadow produced by sunlight to be cast over the Moon completely covering it. For this to happen, the three celestial bodies must be formed in a straight line.

Every year there are between 2 and 7 lunar eclipses. According to the position of the Moon with respect to the Earth's shadow, 3 types of lunar eclipses occur.

The difference between a lunar eclipse and a solar eclipse is that, in the first case, the Earth stands between the Moon and the Sun casting a shadow on the Moon, while in a solar eclipse, the Moon stands between the Sun and Earth, casting its shadow to a small part of the latter.

Finally, <u><em>the correct answer is the option B) It is a lunar eclipse, in which the Earth casts a shadow on the Moon.</em></u>

Sunitha can type 1800 words in half an hour. What is her typing speed in words per minute?
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

60words/minute

Explanation:

If Sunitha can type 1800 words in half an hour, this can be expressed as;

1800 words = 30 minutes

To get her typing speed per minute, we will use the formula

Speed = Number of words/Time used

Typing speed = 1800/30

Typing speed = 60words/minute

Hence her typing speed in words per minute is 60words/minute

Yall have helped a lot i just need help on this then ill be done for a while
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

f(x)=a(x - h)2 + k

Much like a linear function, k works like b in the slope-intercept formula. Like where add or subtract b would determine where the line crosses, in the linear, k determines the vertex of the parabola. If you're going to go up 2, then you need to add 2.

The h determines the movement horizontally. what you put in h determines if it moves left or right. To adjust this, you need to find the number to make the parentheses equal 0 when x equals -2 (because moving the vertex point to the left means subtraction/negatives):

x - h = 0

-2 - h = 0

-h = 2

h = -2

So the function ends up looking like:

f(x)=a(x - (-2))2 + 2

Subtracting a negative cancels the signs out to make a positive:

f(x)=a(x + 2)2 + 2Explanation:

Distance versus Displacement Worksheet
Umnica [9.8K]

when we find the distance we will add all the blocks so

distance = 6+6+4

distance = 14blocks

when we find the displacement we will add and minus too

As you can read he goes to the south 6 and to north 6 so he leave that place and back to the place again so the displacement is 0. and again he goes to the west 4 blocks so the displacement = <em><u>4blocks</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>to</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>the</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>west</u></em>

. Now assuming Anna's far point was found to be 0.9 m (i.e., her eyes can't focus on any object more than 0.9 m away), what powe
Mama L [17]

Answer:1). Distance of far point x=0.9m

Therefore, since the image is virtual

-f=-x = -0.9m

Power of the concave lenses = 1/f = 1/-0.9

= -1.11D

2 ) near point is 21cm = 0.21m

Power = 4-1/near point

= 4/0.21

= 14.2D.
