On which date is the gravitational force between Earth and the moon the greatest?

Physics
1 answer:
Genrish500 [490]3 years ago
3 0

The gravitational forces between the Earth and Moon are greatest when the two bodies are closest together. That happens every 27.32 days, when the Moon is at the perigee of its orbit.

Even if this happened at the same time in every orbit, the date would change, because there are not 27.32 days in a month.

But it doesn't happen at the same time in every orbit ... the Moon's perigee precesses around its orbit, on account of the gravitational forces toward the Earth, the Sun, Venus, Mars, and the other planets.

Identify the areas on the image where the force of repulsion is the least.
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Each magnet has a north pole and a south pole. We know that, from having played with bar magnets in our childhood, that a magnet's north pole will repel another magnet's north pole and attract its south pole.

From this diagram it is easy to see that the two lower bar magnets not only repel each other, but they are quite attracted to each other since their north and south poles are close together.

Therefore the region between the lower two magnets has the least force of repulsion.

Kai swims for the school swim team. He specializes in a backstroke event where he has to swim the 50 m length of the pool three
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Displacement is 50 m

Explanation:

Distance is simply the measurement of the sum of all paths travelled.

Thus, since he swims the 50m length pool 3 times, then the total distance = 50 × 3 = 150 m

Whereas, displacement is the measurement of length of the shortest path from initial point to final point.

In this case initial point to final point is 50m. Thus, the displacement is 50 m
