Answer:

Positions A and C will cause the highest tides, called spring tides, because the gravity of the Moon and Sun will work together to create the two tidal bulges on opposite sides of Earth. So B.

Answer:

Velocity of the ball after 3.04 (s) = 29.79 (m/s)

Explanation:

From the free fall movement we have the following formulas: $Vf^{2} = Vo^{2} - 2gh$ and $h=Vo*t - \frac{g*t^{2} }{2}$ , First we need to find the height to time iqual to 3.04 s using the formula: $h=Vo*t - \frac{g*t^{2} }{2}$ and remember that golf ball was released from the rest (Vo= 0 (m/s)) so $h= (0 (m/s))*(3.04 (s)) - \frac{9.8 (m/s^2)*(3.04 (s))^{2} }{2}$ , we get: h = -45.28 (m) with the height that we have got, now the velocity of the ball is calculate using $Vf^{2} = Vo^{2} - 2gh$ solving for Vf, we get: $Vf = \sqrt{Vo^{2}-2*g*h }$ replacing the values given $Vf = \sqrt{(0 m/s)^{2}-2*(9.8 m/s^2)*(-45.28 m) }$ , so we get: Vf = 29.79 (m/s).
