One main reason is, <span>The Moon's gravity pulls on Earth's oceans and distorts them, causing tides</span>

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.

The potential energy of the block is A) 490 J

Explanation:

The potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in the gravitational field.

It is calculated as follows:

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the object above the ground

For the block in this problem, we have:

m = 10 kg

g=9.8 m/s^2

h = 5 m

Therefore, its potential energy is:

PE=(10)(9.8)(5)=490 J

An observation of the red shift of galaxies suggestst that the universe is
Rufina [12.5K]
A) Expanding. We know this because it has a similar effect with sound. When a car goes by the pitch gets deeper and deeper. It's because you're receiving less waves. Same thing for light but instead of a pitch it's light, and the farther spread the waves - the redder, the closer and more contracted - the bluer

The main reason that most professional research telescopes are reflectors is that
GuDViN [60]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Large mirrors are easier to build than large lenses.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Reflector telescopes have a number of advantages as compared to refracting telescopes and other types of telescopes. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Reflector telescopes do not suffer from chromatic aberration because all wavelengths will reflect off the mirror in the same way. The support for the objective mirror is all along the back side so they can be made very large.</u></em>
  • Additionally, reflector telescopes are cheaper to make than refractors of the same size. Also since in reflector telescopes light is reflecting off the objective, rather than passing through it, only one side of the reflector telescope's objective needs to be perfect.
