What are 5 differences between Spring Tides and Neap Tides?

1 answer:

4 0

Spring Tides are formed by the constructive interference of bulges created by the moon and sun. Spring Tides occur when the Sun, Moon and the Earth are aligned. Neap Tides are formed by the destructive interference created by the moon and sun. Neap tides occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth align to make a right angle.

A real power supply can be modeled as an ideal EMF of 60 Volts in series with an internal resistance. The voltage across the ter

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

5 ohms

Explanation:

Given:

EMF of the ideal battery (E) = 60 V

Voltage across the terminals of the battery (V) = 40 V

Current across the terminals (I) = 4 A

Let the internal resistance be 'r'.

Now, we know that, the voltage drop in the battery is given as:

$V_d=Ir$

Therefore, the voltage across the terminals of the battery is given as:

$V= E-V_d\\\\V=E-Ir$

Now, rewriting in terms of 'r', we get:

$Ir=E-V\\\\r=\frac{E-V}{I}$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'r'. This gives,

$r=\frac{60-40}{4}\\\\r=\frac{20}{4}\\\\r=5\ ohms$

Therefore, the internal resistance of the battery is 5 ohms.

A 41 kg girl and a 5.0 kg sled are on the frictionless ice of a frozen lake, 15 m apart but connected by a rope of negligible ma

goldfiish [28.3K]

(a) 0.8 m/s^2

The force exerted on the sled is F = 4.0 N. We can calculate the acceleration of the sled by using Newton's second law:

$F=ma$

where

m = 5.0 kg is the mass of the sled

a is the acceleration of the sled

Solving the equation for a, we find:

$a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{4.0 N}{5.0 kg}=0.8 m/s^2$

(b) 0.098 m/s^2

According to Newton's third law (action-reaction law), since the girl exerts a force on the sled, then the sled exerts an equal and opposite force on the girl as well. This means that the force exerted on the girl is also F = 4.0 N. As before, we can calculate the acceleration of the girl by using Newton's second law:

$F=ma$

where

m = 41 kg is the mass of the girl

a is the acceleration of the girl

Solving the equation for a, we find:

$a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{4.0 N}{41 kg}=0.098 m/s^2$

(c) 5.8 s

Taking the initial position of the girl as x = 0, the position at time t of the girl is given by:

$x(t)=\frac{1}{2}a_g t^2$

where $a_g = 0.098 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of the girl.

The sled starts instead its motion from x = 15 m, so its position at time t is given by

$x'(t)=15-\frac{1}{2}a_s t^2$

where $a_s=0.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of the sled, and the negative sign is due to the fact that the sled accelerates in opposite direction to the girl's acceleration.

The girl and the sled meet when x(t) = x'(t). So, we find:

$\frac{1}{2}a_g t^2=15-\frac{1}{2}a_s t^2\\(a_g+a_s) t^2=30 m\\t=\sqrt{\frac{30 m}{a_g+a_s}}=\sqrt{\frac{30 m}{0.8 m/s^2+0.098 m/s^2}}=5.8 s$
