If you were to calculate the pull of the Sun on the Earth and the pull of the Moon on the Earth, you would undoubtedly find that

the Sun's pull is much stronger than that of the Moon, yet the Moon's pull is the primary cause of tides on the Earth. Tides exist because of the difference in the gravitational pull of a body (Sun or Moon) on opposite sides of the Earth. Even though the Sun's pull is stronger, the difference between the pull on the near and far sides is greater for the Moon.
Required:
a. "Let F(r) be the gravitational force exerted on one mass by a second mass a distance r away. Calculate dF(r)/dr to show how F changes as r is changed.
b. Evaluate this expression for dF(r) jdr for the force of the Sun at the Earth's center and for the Moon at the Earth's center.
c. Suppose the Earth-Moon distance remains the same, but the Earth is moved closer to the Sun. Is there any point where dF(r)/dr for the two forces has the same value?

<h3>What is electromagnetic waves?</h3>

Electromagnetic radiation are a group of waves which are are produced by the vibrations of electromagnetic fields. Electromagnetic waves/radiation possess the ability to travel through vacuum (i.e. they do not require a material medium for their propagation) while also carrying radiant energy.

Electromagnetic fields which are the sources of electromagnetic radiation, exist as a result of the combination and interaction of travelling electric and magnetic field forces.

Electromagnetic radiations consists of the following waves: radio waves, infrared waves, visible light, ultraviolet rays, X-rays, and gamma rays.

These waves have differing and unique properties such as wavelength, frequencies, ionizing properties, penetrating ability, sources as well as well as uses. However, they have a common property of velocity- they travel with the speed of light, 3.0 * 10⁸ m/s.

In addition to having the same velocity, all electromagnetic radiation exhibit interference and diffraction.

nekit [7.7K]

There is one mistake in the question as unit of height of building is not given.So I assume it as meter.The complete question is here

You are on the roof of the physics building, 46.0 m above the ground. Your physics professor, who is 1.80 m tall, is walking alongside the building at a constant speed of 1.20 m/s. If you wish to drop an egg on your professor’s head, where should the professor be when you release the egg? Assume that the egg is in free fall.  

Answer:

d=3.67 m

Explanation:

Height of building=46.0 m

First we need to find time taken by egg to reach 1.80 m above the surface

So to find time use below equation

S=vt+\frac{1}{2} gt^{2}\\ (46.0-1.80)m=(om/s)t+\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2} )t^{2}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{(46.0-1.80)m}{4.9} }\\ t=3.06s

As velocity 1.20m/s is given and we have find time.So we can easily find the distance

So

distance=velocity*time\\d=v*t\\d=(1.20m/s)*(3.06s)\\d=3.67m

Two cars A and B are 100m apart moving towards each other with
maxonik [38]

Let car A's starting position be the origin, so that its position at time <em>t</em> is

A: <em>x</em> = (40 m/s) <em>t</em>

and car B has position at time <em>t</em> of

B: <em>x</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

<em />

They meet when their positions are equal:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m

<em>t</em> = (100 m) / (100 m/s) = 1 s

so the cars meet 1 second after they start moving.

They are 100 m apart when the difference in their positions is equal to 100 m:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> - (100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>) = 100 m

(subtract car B's position from car A's position because we take car A's direction to be positive)

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 200 m

<em>t</em> = (200 m) / (100 m/s) = 2 s

so the cars are 100 m apart after 2 seconds.

Shay reacts solid zinc and aqueous copper sulfate to form aqueous zinc sulfate and solid copper. If he reacts 10.1 grams of zinc
Darya [45]

Answer:

Now since mass of reactant is equal to mass of the product after the reaction so we can say that mass conservation is applicable here

Explanation:

As we know that zinc reacts with copper sulfate

so the reaction is given as

Zn + CuSO_4 --> ZnSO_4 + Cu

so here we have

Zn = 10.1 g

CuSO_4 = 18.6 g

ZnSO_4 = 20 g

Cu = 8.7 g

Now total mass of reactant is given as

M_1 = 10.1 + 18.6 = 28.7 g

Mass of the product is given as

M_2 = 20 + 8.7 = 28.7 g

Now since mass of reactant is equal to mass of the product after the reaction so we can say that mass conservation is applicable here
