Answer:
Tidal heating
Explanation:
Tidal force is the ability of a massive body to produce tides on another body. The tidal force depends on the mass of the body that produces the tides and the distance between the two bodies.
Tidal forces can cause the destruction of a satellite that orbits a planet or a comet that is too close to the Sun or a planet. When the orbiting body crosses the "Roche boundary", the tidal forces along the body are more intense than the cohesion forces that hold the body together.
Tidal friction is the force between the Earth's oceans and ocean floors caused by the gravitational attraction of the Moon. The Earth tries to transport the waters of the oceans with it, while the Moon tries to keep them under it and on the opposite side of the Earth. In the long term, tidal friction causes the Earth's rotation speed to decrease, thus shortening the day. In turn, the Moon increases its angular momentum and gradually spirals away from Earth. Finally, when the day equals the orbital period of the Moon (which will be about 40 times the length of the current day), the process will cease. Subsequently, a new process will begin when the power to raise tides from the Sun takes angular momentum from the Earth-Moon system. The Moon will then spiral towards Earth until it is destroyed when it enters the "Roche boundary."
<u>Tidal heating
</u>
It is the warming caused by the tidal action on a planet or satellite. The most important example of tidal heating in the Solar System is the effect of Jupiter on its Io satellite, in which the tidal effects produce such high temperatures that the interior of the satellite melts, producing volcanism.
Answer: 2.5 m/s and 6.25 m
Explanation:
u = 0
a = 0.5 m/s²
t = 5 s
v = u + at
= 0 + 0.5 × 5
= <u>2.5 m/s</u>
s = ut + 1/2 at²
= 1/2 × 2.5 × 5
=<u> 6.25 m</u>
Answer: 7200 m
Explanation: The solution is, first convert 15 minutes to seconds.
15 mins x 60 s / 1 min = 900 s
Use the formula for speed which is v= d/t then derive for d.
d = vt
= 8 m/s ( 900s)
= 7200 m
Answer:
Explanation:
Given
mass of object 
kinetic Energy 
Tension in string 
mass is moving in a horizontal circle so tension is providing the centripetal acceleration
therefore 
where r=radius of circle
kinetic energy of particle 
divide 1 and 2 we get
Answer:
Just as distance and displacement have distinctly different meanings (despite their similarities), so do speed and velocity. Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to "how fast an object is moving." Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. A fast-moving object has a high speed and covers a relatively large distance in a short amount of time. Contrast this to a slow-moving object that has a low speed; it covers a relatively small amount of distance in the same amount of time. An object with no movement at all has a zero speed.
