Io experiences tidal heating primarily because __________.

Physics
1 answer:
Inga [223]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

the orbit of Io around Jupiter causes the tidal heating.

Explanation:

Io's elliptical orbit causes the tidal force to vary as it orbits Jupiter.

Because Jupiter is a very massive planet, it has a very large gravitational pull on its moons, so the side of Io facing the planet is experiencing a greater gravitational pull than the opposite side.  This causes a distortion in the shape of the Io, and a friction that causes the tidal heating.

This friction generates heat currents, which is what makes Io the place with the most volcanic activity in the solar system.

Someone got this paper?
Snezhnost [94]
First question (upper left):
1/Req = 1/12 + 1/24 = 1/8
Req = 8 ohms
Voltage is equal through different resistors, and V1 = V2 = 24 V.
Current varies through parallel resistors: I1 = V1/R1 = 24/12 = 2 A. I2 = 24/24 = 1 A.

Second question (middle left):
V1 = V2 = 6 V (parallel circuits)
I1 = 2 A, I2 = 1 A, IT = 2+1 = 3 A.
R1 = V1/I1 = 6/2 = 3 ohms, R2 = 6/1 = 6 ohms, 1/Req = 1/2 + 1/1, Req = 2/3 ohms

Third question (bottom left):
V1 = V2 = 12 V
IT = 3 A, meaning Req = V/It = 12 V/3 A = 4 ohms
1/Req = 1/R1 + 1/R2, 1/4 = 1/12 + 1/R2, R2 = 6 ohms
I1 = V/R1 = 1 A, I2 = V/R2 = 2 A

Fourth question (top right):
1/Req = 1/20 + 1/20, Req = 10 ohms
IT = 4 A, so VT = IT(Req) = 4*10 = 40 V
Parallel circuits, so V1 = V2 = VT = 40 V
Since the resistors are identical, the current is split evenly between both: I1 = I2 = IT/2 = 2 A.

Fifth question (middle right):
1/Req = 1/5 + 1/20 + 1/4, Req = 2 ohms
IT = VT/Req = 40 V/2 ohms = 20 A
V1 = V2 = V3 = 40 V
The current of 20 A will be divided proportionally according to the resistances of 5, 20, and 4, the factors will be 5/(5+20+4), 20/(5+20+4), and 4/(5+20+4), which are 5/29, 20/29, and 4/29.
I1 = 20(5/29) = 100/29 A
I2 = 20(20/29) = 400/29 A
I3 = 20(4/29) = 80/29 A

Sixth question (bottom right):
V2 = 30V is given, but since these are parallel circuits, V1 = VT = 30 V.
Then I1 = V1/R1 = 30 V/10 ohms = 3 A.
I2 = 30 V/15 ohms = 2 A.
IT = 3 + 2 = 5 A
1/Req = 1/10 + 1/15, Req = 6 ohms

A blue ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 21.8 m/s, from a height of 0.9 meters above the ground. 2.7 seconds after
worty [1.4K]
I can think of two possible and logical questions for the problem given. First, you can calculate for the maximum height reached by the blue ball. Second, you can compute the length of time for the two balls to be at the same height. If so, the solution are as follows:

When the object is thrown upwards or when the object is dropped from a height, the only force acting upon it is the gravitational force. Because of this, it simplifies equations of motion.

1. For the maximum height, the equation is
H = v₀²/2g
where
v₀ is the initial speed
g is the acceleration due to gravity equal to 9.81 m/s²

For the blue ball, v₀ = 21.8 m/s. Substituting the values:
H = (21.8 m/s)²/2(9.81m/s²)
H = 24.22 m
The maximum height reached by the blue ball is 24.22 m + 0.9 = 25.12 m.

2. For this, you equate the y values of both balls:

y for red ball = y for blue ball
v₀t + 0.5gt² = v₀t + 0.5gt²
(10.4 m/s)t + 0.5(9.81 m/s²)(t²) + 26.6 m = (21.8 m/s)t + 0.5(9.81 m/s²)(t²) + 0.9 m
Solving for t, 
t = 2.25 seconds

Thus, the two balls would be at the same height after 2.25 seconds.

A firecracker in a coconut blows the coconut into three pieces. Two pieces of equal mass fly off south and west, perpendicular t
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m₁=m₂ = m

m₃ = 2 m

Given that speed of the two pieces

u₁=- 25 j m/s

u₂ =- 25 i m/s

Lets take the speed of the third mass = v m/s

From linear momentum conservation

Pi= Pf

0 = m₁u₁+m₂u₂ + m₃ v

0 = -25 j m  - 25 i m + 2 m v

2 v=25 j   + 25 i m/s

v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s

Therefore the speed of the third mass will be v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s
