The study of how the moon causes tides in Earth's oceans represents an intersection of which two fields of science?

<span>Moon tides or lunar tides are caused by the pull of gravity between the moon and earth. The moon will exert a gravitational pull on earth and the earth also pulls the moon towards itself. One of the results is that the moon is near the earth and the other one, the oceans tide. Even though the earth can hold any object within ts proximity, the ocean is partly attracted due to its liquid property. At night, the ocean tends to be attracted to the moon by creating a bulge and assigning it as ‘high tide’. This is due to the strong gravitational pull of th moon to the earth. The answer is letter D.</span>

Using 6400 km as the radius of Earth, calculate how high above Earth’s surface you would have to be in order to weigh 1/16th of
FrozenT [24]
Gravity obeys the inverse square law.  At 6400 km above the center of the Earth (Earth's surface) you weigh x.  Twice that reduces your weight to 1/4th.  Four times that height reduces your weight to 1/16th.  4 times 6400 km is 25,600 km.  But that is above the center of the earth, and the question requests the height above the surface, so we deduct 6400 km to arrive at our final answer:  19,200 km.

Incidentally, it doesn't exactly work the opposite way.  At the center of the Earth the mass would be equally distributed around you, and you would therefore be weightless.

Why is everything spinning? Moons, planets and stars all rotate on their axes, moons orbit planets, planets orbit stars, spiral
kow [346]

Answer:

Conservation of angular momentum

Explanation:

When the objects spread in universe after big bang, because of the tremendous force , they gained angular momentum and started to rotate. Since, then the object continue to rotate on their axis because of conservation of angular momentum. In vacuum of space there no other forces that can stop these rotation, therefore, they continue to rotate.

A cat lies on the floor. can you say that no force acts on the cat? or is it correct to say that no net force acts on the cat? e
DIA [1.3K]

Odd though it seems at first, gravity is pulling the cat down while the floor is pushing the cat up - in equal amounts. Forces are absolutely acting on the cat but they balance - so there is no net force.
