(1) You must find the point of equilibrium between the two forces,

G * MTms / (R−x)^2 = G * MLms / x^2
MT / (R-x)^2 = ML / x^2

So,

x = R * sqrt(ML * MT) - ML / (MT - ML)
R = is the distance between Earth and Moon.

The result should be,
x = 3.83 * 10^7m
from the center of the Moon, and

R - x = 3.46*10^8 m
from the center of the Earth.

(2) As the distance from the center of the Earth is the number we found before,
d = R - x = 3.46*10^8m
The acceleration at this point is
g = G * MT / d^2
g = 3.33*10^-3 m/s^2

The voltage V in a simple electrical circuit is slowly decreasing as the battery wears out. The resistance R is slowly increasin

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The current in the circuit decrease slowly .

Explanation:

Given as :

For the electrical circuit

The voltage V in the circuit is slowly decreasing

The resistance R of the resistor slowly increasing after heating

Now, From Ohm's Law

Voltage is directly proportional to the flow of current through circuit

I.e V ∝ I

Or. V = R × I

where R is the proportionate constant and this is the resistance of the resistor

whose property is to opposes the flow of current in the circuit

So, If R value more then current I reduces in the circuit

∵ Here in the circuit , The resistance is slowly increasing, so, current I is slowly decreasing .

Hence The current in the circuit decrease slowly . answer

Why does the moon turn red during a lunar eclipse?.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

During a lunar eclipse, the Moon turns red because the only sunlight reaching the Moon passes through Earth's atmosphere. The more dust or clouds in Earth's atmosphere during the eclipse, the redder the Moon will appear.

QC In ideal flow, a liquid of density 850 kg / m³ moves from a horizontal tube of radius 1.00cm into a second horizontal tube of

kvv77 [185]

The volume flow rates for ∆P is 6.81m³/s .

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The amount of force applied on perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area. The unit of it is pascal.

According to bernaulli's theorem theorem

P+1/2pV²+pgy = constant

where p fluid density

g is acceleration due to gravity, pressure at elevation,v is Velocity at elevation ,y is height of elevation.

As there are two tubes then the height of tube 1 is equal to height of tube two .

P1-P2=1/2p(Vd²-Vl²)

The flow rate of liquid is A1V1=A2V2 .

Two Polaroids are aligned so that the initially unpolarized light passing through them is a maximum. At what angle should one of

steposvetlana [31]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the law of Malus which describes the change in the Intensity of Light when it crosses a polarized surface.

Mathematically the expression is given as

$I = I_0 cos^2\theta$

Where,

$I_0$ = Initial Intensity

I = Final Intensity after pass through the polarizer

$\theta$ = Angle between the polarizer and the light

Since it is sought to reduce the intensity by half the relationship between the two intensities will be given as

$\frac{I}{I_0} = \frac{1}{2}$

Using the Malus Law we have,

$I = I_0 cos^2\theta$

$cos^2\theta = \frac{I}{I_0}$

$cos^2\theta = \frac{1}{2}$

$\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})^2$

$\theta = 75.52\°$

Angle with respect to maximum is $90-75.52 = 14.48\°$
