How are the movements of the Moon in the sky and Earth's rotation about its own axis related? A)
The Moon appears to move from East to West due to Earth's East-to-West
rotation.
B)
The Moon appears to move from East to West due to Earth's West-to-East
rotation.
0)
The Moon actually moves from East to West while Earth rotates from West
to East.
D)
The Moon and Earth both move from East to West, but Earth rotates at a
lower speed.

The answer is  the potential energy of the bob at position b is 1.47 joules.if the maximum height of the bob is 0.45 meters when it swings back,1.323   joules of energy was transformed to thermal energy.hope this

Part a:   using momentum conservation we have:   direction x:   (15) (7.0) + 0 = (15) (4.2) cos (-20 °) + (10) v₂ (f) cosθ  (10) v₂ (f) cosθ = (15) (7.0) - (15) (4.2) cos (-20 °) (eq 1)  direction y:   0 + 0 = (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °) + (10) v₂ (f) sinθ  (10) v₂ (f) sinθ = - (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °) (eq 2)  we divide both equations (1) and (2):   left side:   (10) v₂ (f) sinθ / (10) v₂ (f) cosθ = tanθ  right side:   - (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °) / (15) (7.0) - (15) (4.2) cos (-20 °)  clearing the angle we have:   θ = tan⁻¹ [- (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °) / (15) (7.0) - (15) (4.2) cos (-20 °)]  θ = 25 °  we use any of the equations to find the speed.  from (2) we have:   (10) v₂ (f) sinθ = - (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °)  v₂ = - (15) (4.2) sin (-20 °) / (10) sin25 °  answer:   v₂ = 5.1m / s  note:     θ = 25 ° (direction is in the first quadrant, north of east)  part b:   initial kinetic energy:   k (i) = 0.5 (15) (7.0) ²  = 370j (rounded)  final kinetic energy:   ke (f) = 0.5 (15kg) (4.2m / s) ² + 0.5 (10kg) (5.1m / s) ²  = 260j (rounded)  answer:     a difference of 110j, so it was an inelastic collision.
