Answer: The moon is said to be in full phase when the illuminated half of the moon is fully in position for us to see it. The "new moon" phase of the lunar cycle happens when the sun, moon, and earth are located in a straight line, with the moon between the earth and the sun. The moon is said to be in a "waxing" phase when it is moving from the new moon phase into the full moon phase. During this time, the amount of visible, illuminated moon will be gradually growing. The moon is said to be in a "waning" phase when it is moving from the full moon phase into the new moon phase. During this time, the visible portion of the moon will appear to be shrinking. A crescent moon occurs close to the new and full moon stages, whether the moon is waxing or waning. At this time, only a small sliver of the illuminated moon is visible to us.

eduard

Answer:4A

Explanation:

Given

Mass is displace x= A units from its mean position x=0'

When it is set to free it will oscillate about its mean position with maximum amplitude A i.e. from x=-A to x=A

One cycle is completed when block returns to its original position

so first block will go equilibrium position x=0 and then to x=-A

from x=-A it again moves back to x=0 and finally back to its starting position x=A

so it travels a distance of A+A+A+A=4A

(1) <span>Electric current is defined as the rate of </span>charge<span> flow past a given point in an electric circuit. It is measured in Coulombs/second, also called Amperes. In </span>DC electric circuits<span>, it can be assumed that the </span>resistance<span> to current flow is a constant so that the current in the circuit is related to </span>voltage<span> and resistance by </span>Ohm's law, which is:
<span>
V = I*R
Where V = Voltage
I = Current
R = Resistance

(2) The answer is attached in image form down below(please find attachment)
(3) </span>The answer is attached in image form down below(please find attachment)

(4) <span>Renewable energy is the energy which is generated from the natural sources i.e. sun, tides, wind etc. Examples are: Solar Energy, Wind energy( windmill) etc. for electricity generation.
Advantages of Renewable Energy:
1) It is available in abundant quantity.
2) It is free to use.
3) It has </span><span>low carbon emissions, therefore it is considered as green and environment friendly.
Disadvantages of Renewable Energy:
1) It is not easy to setup plants and machinery for renewable energy.
2) Initial costs for setting up those plants and machinery is quite high.
3) The energy from the natural sources is not available 24/7. In Solar energy case, energy </span><span>can be used during the day time and not during night or rainy season etc.
</span>
Non-Renewable energy is energy which is taken from the sources that are available on the earth in limited quantity. Sources may be <span>fossil fuels, natural gas, oil and coal etc.
</span><span>Advantages of Non-Renewable Energy Sources:
1) They are easy to use.
2) They are cheap.

Disadvantages:
</span>1) They will expire some day (as they are limited).
2) The speed at which such resources are being used can have serious environmental changes.
3) They release toxic gases in the air when burnt which are the major cause for global warming.
<span>4) Since these sources are going to expire soon, prices of these sources are proliferating day by day.
</span><span>
Now you should judge all by yourself which is the better energy source.

The mixture you separated was a mixture of iron filings, sand, and salt. Based on your understanding of matter, is this mixture
V125BC [204]

Answer: Heterogeneous mixture - the parts are not uniformly mixed.

A mixture contains components having distinct chemical properties. There are two types of mixtures: homogeneous and heterogeneous. In a homogeneous mixture there is uniform distribution of components. we cannot distinguish one portion of the mixture from another. for example salt mixed in water. In heterogeneous mixture, the components are not uniformly mixed. hence, we are able to distinguish different parts of a mixture, like the mixture of iron, sand and salt given in this question.

grin007 [14]
S = ut + 1/2 at^2
a = 3.2 m/s^2
s = 15m
Find t
15 = 1/2(3.2)t^2
15 = 3.2t^2/2
30 = 3.2t^2
30/ 3.2 = 9.38
Square root of 9.38 = 3.06
It takes 3.06 seconds
