Answer:

Spring tides occur when the moon is full or new. Earth, the moon, and the Sun are in a line. The moon’s gravity and the Sun’s gravity pull Earth’s crust and ocean water. This causes tides to be higher than normal. At neap tide, the moon and the Sun are at right angles to each other. This happens during the first and third quarters of the lunar cycle. At neap tide, the Sun’s gravity and the moon’s gravity are balanced. High tides are lower; low tides are higher.

What happens to the volume of an ideal gas as temperature drops

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Based on the ideal gas equation, the pressure (P), volume (V) and temperature (T) corresponding to n moles of an ideal gas are related as:

PV = nRT

where R = gas constant

Under conditions of constant pressure and number of moles:

The volume is directly proportional to the pressure. Therefore, as the temperature drops the volume will also decrease.

V α T

This is also known as the Charles Law.

I rent a small high pressure water sprayer to clean the outside of my house. The sprayer works like a super soaker with a hose b

viva [34]

Answer:

1. 80,000 Pa

2. 11.3 m/s

3. 12.5 m/s

Explanation:

Question 1

Pressure, $P=hg\rho$

Where h is the height that water is to reach, g is gravitational constant and $\rho$ is the density, in this case, we assume $\rho$ of pure water as $1000 Kg/m^3$

Assuming $g=10 m/s^{2}$

P=8*10*1000=80000 Pa

Question 2

Pressure can also be found by the formula

$P=0.5v^{2}\rho$ where v is the velocity

Equating the new formula of pressure to the formula used in question 1 above

$P=0.5v^{2}\rho=hg\rho$

Notice that $\rho$ is common hence

$0.5v^{2}=hg$

Making V the subject of the formula

$v^{2}=2hg$

$v=\sqrt 2hg$

In this case, h=8-1.6=6.4m and taking g as 10 m/s^{2}

$v=\sqrt 2*10*6.4=11.3137085 m/s$

Rounding off to 1 decimal place

v=11.3 m/s

Question 3

As already illustrated

$v=\sqrt 2hg$

Taking g as 9.8 and h now is 8m

$v=\sqrt 2*8*9.8$

v=12.52198067

Rounding off to 1 decimal place

v=12.5 m/s

Why isn’t our constitution ( and our country) in a constant state of adjustment and readjustment

madam [21]

The constitution and the country aren't in a constant state of adjustment and readjustment because it has strong and logical ideological bases that encompass most of society's issues over time.

The constitution was written on a democratic ideological basis inspired by the European Enlightenment revolution of thought. These principles have contributed to the construction of American social logic.

Therefore, the constitution and the country have not needed major readjustments or adjustments since their creation because the country has been built on solid and well-defined ideological bases that are projected into the future with a social logic.
