Fill in the fraction: 3,600/90 = 40; turn it into a unit fraction.

40 mi/min

Mechanical waves are oscillation of matter, they are important because they all transfer energy from one place to another. There are 2 types of mechanical waves. A transverse wave where the particles vibrate perpendicular to the direction of energy travel and a longitudinal wave where particle vibrations are parallel to the direction of the energy transfer.

I hope it helps, Regards.

During which phase of the moon do neap tides occur?

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

First Quarter and Third Quarter.

Explanation:

Tides are formed as a consequence of the differentiation of gravity due to the Moon across to the Earth sphere.

Since gravity variates with the distance:

$F = G\frac{m1\cdot m2}{r^{2}}$ (1)

Where m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects that are interacting and r is the distance between them.

For example, seeing the image below, point A is closer to the Moon than point b, and at the same time the center of mass of the Earth will feel more attracted to the Moon than point B. Therefore, that creates a tidal bulge in point A and point B.

When the Sun and the Moon are alight with respect to the Earth, then the Sun tidal force contributes to the tidal force of the Moon over the Earth. That makes the high tides even higher (spring tides).

However, when the Sun is not in the same line than the Moon (the Moon is at 90° with respect to the Sun), then the low tides are higher and the high tides are lower. That scenario is known as neap tides.

Therefore, that happens when the Moon is at First Quarter and Third Quarter.
