12. A volcano erupts on Earth's surface causing a piece of rock with a mass of 95 kg to be ejected from rest to an acceleration

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The force exerted on the rock by the eruption is, D. 902.5 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the rock ejected by the volcano, m = 95 kg

The acceleration of the ejected rock, a 9.5 m/s²

The force acting on an object is defined as the product of the mass and its acceleration. It is given by the relation,

F = m x a

= 95 x 9.5

= 902.5 N

Hence, the force exerted on the rock by the eruption is, F = 902.5 N

It is night. Someone who is 4 feet tall is walking away from a street light at a rate of 8 feet per second. The street light is

KiRa [710]

Answer: 4 ft/s

Explanation:

Given

height of man $=4 ft$

speed of person $v=8 ft/s$

height if street light $=12 ft$

Let x be the distance between person and street light and y be the length of his shadow

From diagram

as the two triangle ADE and ABC are similar therefore we can say that

$\frac{4}{12}=\frac{y}{x+y}$

$\frac{1}{3}=\frac{y}{x+y}$

$x+y=3y$

$x=2y$

differentiate above Equation w.r.t time we get

$\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=2\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}$

$\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{8}{2}=4 ft/s$

What do we mean when we say that 50 million tons of coal could replace the use of 0.6 MBPD (million barrels per day) of oil used

ololo11 [35]

<span>This statement simply implies that the 50 million tons of coal will produce the same energy output in one year as the 0.6 million barrels per day of oil. Assuming coal is more plentiful than oil, this is significant as 50 million tons is much smaller than 219 million barrels of oil.</span>

Each lunar cycle has one full moon, in which the relative positions of Earth, the sun, and the moon form in a straight line

aniked [119]

Complete Question:

Each lunar cycle has one full moon, in which the relative positions of Earth, the sun, and the moon form in a straight line. Which list represents the position of Earth, the sun, and the moon during a full moon?

Group of answer choices.

A. Earth, sun, moon

B. sun, moon, Earth

C. moon, sun, Earth

D. sun, Earth, moon

Answer:

D. sun, Earth, moon

Explanation:

A lunar eclipse is a phenomenon that occurs when the Earth comes between the Moon and the Sun thereby causing it to cover the Moon with its shadow.

Simply stated, lunar eclipse takes place when the Moon passes or moves through the Earth's shadow thereby blocking any ray of sunlight from reaching the Moon. Thus, the full moon appears deep red (blood moon).

Also, a lunar eclipse would occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are closely aligned to form a straight line known as the syzygy.

There are three (3) types of lunar eclipse and these are;

1. Total lunar eclipse.

2. Partial lunar eclipse.

3. Penumbra lunar eclipse.

Each lunar cycle has one full moon, in which the relative positions of Earth, the sun, and the moon form in a straight line. Thus, the list which represents the position of Earth, the sun, and the moon during a full moon is sun, Earth, and moon
