<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

the earth to rotate slightly slower

The pull of the moon on Earth's tidal bulge is causing <u>the earth to rotate slightly slower</u>.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Tidal bulge results from the gravitational attraction between the moon and the earth which causes the ocean waters to be pulled towards the moon, such that as the earth rotates the location of the affected water change.
  • <em><u>Tidal bulges are created on opposite sides of the Earth due to the moon's gravitational force and inertia counterbalance.</u></em>
  • <u>The tidal bulge produced on Earth by the moon is causing the moon to slowly move further from Earth. </u>
  • The average tidal bulge is synchronized with the orbit of the moon and the earth rotates under the tidal bulge over a day.

Not 100% but i think it'll cause the earth to rotate slightly slower, its definitely not the last one though

An archer shoots an arrow with a velocity of 45.0m/s at an angle of 50.0degrees with the horizontal.An assistant standing on the
garri49 [273]

Answer:

a) u = 30.29 m/s

b) t = 2.09 s

Explanation:

given,

velocity = 45 m/s

angle (θ) = 50°

horizontal velocity = 45 cos 50°

time taken to reach 150 m.

times = \dfrac{150}{45 cos 50^0}

t  =  5.19 s

a) height of arrow

s = u t +\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

s = v sin \theta \times t+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

s = 45 sin 50^0 \times 5.19 -\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 5.19^2

s = 46.78 m

v² - u² = 2 g s

u² = 2 × 9.81 × 46.78

u = 30.29 m/s

b) time taken by the apple = \dfrac{u}{g}=\dfrac{30.29}{9.81}

                                             = 3.09 s

time after which it has to be thrown = 5.19-3.09 = 2.1 s

A projectile is shot directly away from Earth's surface. Neglect the rotation of the Earth. What multiple of Earth's radius RE g
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

(a) r = 1.062·R_E = \frac{531}{500} R_E

(b) r = \frac{33}{25} R_E

(c) Zero

Explanation:

Here we have escape velocity v_e given by

v_e =\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R_E} } and the maximum height given by

\frac{1}{2} v^2-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r}

Therefore, when the initial speed is 0.241v_e we have

v = 0.241\times \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R_E} } so that;

v² = 0.058081\times {\frac{2GM}{R_E} }

v² = {\frac{0.116162\times GM}{R_E} }

\frac{1}{2} v^2-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r} is then

\frac{1}{2} {\frac{0.116162\times GM}{R_E} }-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r}

Which gives

-\frac{0.941919}{R_E} = -\frac{1}{r} or

r = 1.062·R_E

(b) Here we have

K_i = 0.241\times \frac{1}{2} \times m \times v_e^2 = 0.241\times \frac{1}{2} \times m  \times \frac{2GM}{R_E} = \frac{0.241mGM}{R_E}

Therefore we put  \frac{0.241GM}{R_E} in the maximum height equation to get

\frac{0.241}{R_E} -\frac{1}{R_E} =-\frac{1}{r}

From which we get

r = 1.32·R_E

(c) The we have the least initial mechanical energy, ME given by

ME = KE - PE

Where the KE = PE required to leave the earth we have

ME = KE - KE = 0

The least initial mechanical energy to leave the earth is zero.
