HELP ASAP PLEASE - Which best describes how the arrangement of the sun, moon, and the earth affect the range of the tides during

a spring tide?
A. Because the earth, moon, and sun are all out of alignment, the pull of the moon and sun act in the opposite direction causing the highest high tides and the lowest low tides.


B. Because the earth, moon, and sun are in alignment, the pull of the moon and sun act in the same direction, causing the highest high tides and the lowest low tides.


C. Because the earth, moon, and sun are all out of alignment, the pull of the moon and sun act in the opposite direction, causing the lowest high tides and the highest low tides.


D. Because the earth, moon, and sun are all in alignment, the pull of the moon and sun act in the same direction causing the lowest high tides and the highest low tides.

B. When the sun and the moon are aligned, their combined gravitational force attracts the water, causing super high tides on one side of the planet, and super low tides on the opposite side.

Answer: B. Because the earth, moon, and sun are in alignment, the pull of the moon and sun act in the same direction, causing the highest high tides and the lowest low tides.

Explanation:

The rise in level of waves due to gravitational pull of the sun and the moon are tides. Spring tides occur during new moon or full moon when the Sun, the Moon and The Earth all align in one straight line. The strong gravitational pull causes the highest high tides and the lowest low tides. Thus, the correct option is B.

Ask Your Teacher An electric utility company supplies a customer's house from the main power lines (120 V) with two copper wires
natta225 [31]

Answer:

The potential difference at the customer's house is 117.1 V.

Explanation:

a) The potential difference at the customer's house can be calculated as follows:

\Delta V_{h} = \Delta V_{p} - \Delta V_{l}

<u>Where</u>:

V_{h}: is the potential difference at the customer's house

V_{p}: is the potential difference from the main power lines = 120 V

V_{l}: is the potential difference from the lines

\Delta V_{h} = \Delta V_{p} - IR

The resistance, R, is:

\frac{0.109 \Omega}{300 m}*2*34.0 m = 0.025 \Omega

Now, the potential difference at the customer's house is:

\Delta V_{h} = 120 V - 116A*0.025 \Omega = 117.1 V

Therefore, the potential difference at the customer's house is 117.1 V.

I hope it helps you!

A charged particle having mass 6.64 x 10-27 kg (that of a helium atom) moving at 8.70 x 105 m/s perpendicular to a 1.30-T magnet
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

the charge of the particle is 2.47 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the particle, m = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

velocity of the particle, v = 8.7 x 10⁵ m/s

strength of the magnetic field, B = 1.3 T

radius of the circle, r = 18 mm = 1.8 x 10⁻³ m

The magnetic force experienced by the charge is calculated as;

F = ma = qvB

where;

q is the charge of the particle

a is the acceleration of the charge in the circular path

a = \frac{v^2}{r} \\\\ma = qvB\\\\q = \frac{ma}{vB} \\\\q = \frac{mv^2}{rvB} = \frac{mv}{rB} \\\\q = \frac{(6.64\times 10^{-27} ) \times (8.7\times 10^5)}{(1.8\times 10^{-2}) \times (1.3)} \\\\q = 2.47 \ \times 10^{-19} \ C

Therefore, the charge of the particle is 2.47 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
