The Moon's gravity pulls on Earth's oceans and distorts them, causing tides. The water on the side of Earth closest to the Moon experiences the biggest pull, and bulges outward. The water on the opposite side also bulges, and the two bulges follow the Moon's motion and Earth's rotation.

When is your kinetic energy the least when swinging on a park swing?
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

An active pendulum has the most kinetic energy at the lowest point of its swing when the weight is moving fastest.

Explanation:

SO YOU HAVE THE LEAST KINETIC ENERGY AT THE HIGHEST POINT OF THE SWING WHEN IT'S NOT ACTIVE

Un cubo de madera de densidad 0.780 g/cm³ mide 11.2 cm en un lado. Cuando se coloca en agua, ¿qué altura del bloque flotará sobr
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

2.464 cm above the water surface

Explanation:

Recall that for the cube to float, means that the volume of water displaced weights the same as the weight of the block.

We calculate the weight of the block multiplying its density (0.78 gr/cm^3) times its volume (11.2^3  cm^3):

weight of the block = 0.78 * 11.2^3  gr

Now the displaced water will have a volume equal to the base of the cube (11.2 cm^2) times the part of the cube (x) that is under water. Recall as well that the density of water is 1 gr/cm^3.

So the weight of the volume of water displaced is:

weight of water = 1 * 11.2^2 * x

we make both weight expressions equal each other for the floating requirement:

0.78 * 11.2^3 = 11.2^2 * x

then x = 0.78 * 11.2 cm = 8.736 cm

This "x" is the portion of the cube under water. Then to estimate what is left of the cube above water, we subtract it from the cube's height (11.2 cm) as follows:

11.2 cm - 8.736 cm = 2.464 cm

What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 100 m in 25 s?
larisa86 [58]

As per the question, the distance travelled by bobsled [s] = 100 m

The time taken by the bobsled to travel that distance [t] = 25 s

We are asked to calculate the speed of the bobsled.

The speed of the bobsled is calculated as -

                                            speed\ =\ \frac{distance}{time}

                                            v\ =\ \frac{s}{t}

                                                   =\frac{100\ m}{25\ s}

                                                   =\ 4\ m/s

Hence, the correct answer to the question is A. 4 m/s.
