What does it mean if the moon is waxing and waning

Physics
1 answer:
konstantin123 [22]2 years ago
6 0
Both verbs come from Olde English. 
That's why everybody clearly understood their meaning until
a hundred years ago, but nobody understands them now.


"Waxing"  =  growing

For two weeks after the New Moon, it's growing toward Full.
First it's a waxing crescent for a week, then it's waxing gibbous.


"Waning"  =  shrinking

For two weeks after the Full Moon, it's shrinking toward New.
First it's waning gibbous for a week, then it's a waning crescent.

What is the kinetic energy of a 0.135 kg baseball thrown at 40 m/s
Ronch [10]
KE = 1/2 * m * v^2
KE = 1/2 * 0.135 * 40^2
KE = 1/2 * 0.135 * 1600
KE = 108 J

Answer:

2) c) give-way vessel

3) a) With one short blast

Explanation:

2) A vessel that is required to take early substantial action to ensure avoiding  collision called Give way vessel

In overtaking, the vessel intending to overtake is the Give-Way Vessel the vessel that is going to be overtaken is the Stand-On Vessel

Therefore, the correct option is c) give-way vessel

3) When vessels use sound signals in a meeting head on situation both vessel are Give-Way vessels and both vessel pass the each other by turning to the starboard side therefore they intend to pass each other on their port side requiring one short blast

create a formula giving the strength of the induced field (B) i terms of current (I) and the distance from the wire to the probe
iren [92.7K]
So we need to find the formula for magnetic field B using the current (I) and the distance from the probe (d). So, We know that the stronger the current I, the stronger the magnetic field B. That tells us that the I and B are proportional. Also we know that the strength of the magnetic field B is weaker as the distance d of the probe increases. That tells us that B and d are inversely proportional. So our formula should have B=(I/d)*c where c is a constant of proportionality. c=μ₀/2π where μ₀ is the permeability of free space. So finally our formula is B=(μ₀I)/(2πd).
