<em>The main cause of twice-daily tides around the world are;</em>

Gravitational pull of the moon

<u>Tides are the rise and fall of water caused by gravitational forces of the moon and sun on the oceans of the earth. </u>

<u>The moons gravity is large enough to actually pull water out of the ocean from space. Just enough to create motion of the tides.</u>

An electron with a speed of 1.7 × 107 m/s moves horizontally into a region where a constant vertical force of 4.9 × 10-16 N acts
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

 y = 77.74 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use Newton's second law

        F = m a

        a = F / m

        a = 4.9 10⁻¹⁶ / 9.1 10⁻³¹

        a = 0.538 10¹⁵ m / s

This is the vertical acceleration of the electron.

Now let's use kinematics to find the time it takes to move the

         x= 29 mm = 29 10⁻³ m

On the x axis

            v = x / t

            t = x / v

            t = 29 10⁻³ / 1.7 10⁷

            t = 17 10⁻¹⁰ s

Now we can look for vertical distance at this time.

            y = v_{oy} t + ½ a t²

            y = 0 + ½ 0.538 10¹⁵ (17 10⁻¹⁰)²

            y = 77.74 10⁻⁵ m

An element’s atomic number is 35. how many portions would an atom this element have
kotykmax [81]

35 protons are present in an element whose atomic number is 35.

<u>Explanation: </u>

In an atom of an element, the number of protons = atomic number

Number of protons = number of electrons

Mass Number = number of protons + number of neutrons

Hence, an atom with atomic number 35 will have 35 protons.

The equation y = 5 Sin (3x - 4t), where
igomit [66]

Answer:

Frequency, f = 0.63 Hz

Period, T = 1.58 s

Speed of a wave, v = 1.34 m/s

Explanation:

The equation of a wave is given by :

y = 5 \sin (3x - 4t) ...(1)

y is in mm

x is in meters

t is in seconds

The general equation of a wave is given by :

y=A\sin(kx-\omega t) ...(2)

(i) Compare equation (1) and (2) we get :

k=3\\\\\omega=4

Since,

\omega=2\pi f\\\\f=\dfrac{\omega}{2\pi}\\\\f=\dfrac{4}{2\pi}\\\\f=0.63\ Hz

(ii) Period of wave is :

T=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\\T=\dfrac{1}{0.63}\\\\T=1.58\ s

(iii) Speed of a wave,

v=\dfrac{\omega}{k}\\\\v=\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\v=1.34\ m/s
