It is a force do to that way that it pulls objects down and a force is something that pushes or pulls an object so gravity is a force

If the Moon had twice as much mass and still orbits Earth at the same distance, ocean bulges on Earth would be

Sophie [7]

Ocean bulges on Earth would be bigger if the Moon had twice as much mass and yet orbited the planet at the same distance. Option B is correct.

<h3>What is ocean bludge?</h3>

The fluid and moveable ocean water are drawn towards the moon by the gravitational attraction between the moon and the Earth.

The ocean nearest to the moon experiences a bulge as a result, and as the Earth rotates, the affected seas' locations shift.

The Moon's bulges in the oceans would be larger if it had twice the mass and orbited Earth at the same distance.

Hence option B is corect.

A physics student throws a softball straight up into the air. The ball was in the air for a total of 3.56 s before it was caught

meriva

Answer:

The initial velocity of the softball is 14.711 meters per second.

Explanation:

This is a case of an object which experiments a free fall, that is, an uniform accelerated motion due to gravity and in which effects from air friction and Earth's rotation can be neglected.

From statement we must understand that the student threw the softball upwards and it is caught at original position 3.56 seconds later. Initial and final heights, time and gravitational acceleration are known and initial speed is unknown. The following equation of motion is used:

$y = y_{o} + v_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot g \cdot t^{2}$ (Eq. 1)
