Physics

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<h2>Cohesion </h2>

Is the attraction that molecules have for others of their same type.

<h2>Adhesion </h2>

Is the attraction that molecules have for others of different type by  intermolecular forces.

A good example of both is water  that can stick to itself through hydrogen bonds (cohesion) and can also stick to a glass due to adhesion.

So, while Cohesion is the force of attraction between adjacent particles within the same body, Adhesion is the interaction between the surfaces of different bodies.

An object has a kinetic energy of 175 J and a momentum of magnitude 25.0 kg m/s. Find the
DedPeter [7]

Answer:14 m/s

Explanation:

Kinetic energy(ke)=175J

Momentum(M)=25kgm/s

Speed=v

Mass=m

Ke=(m x v x v)/2

175=(mv^2)/2

Cross multiply

175 x 2=mv^2

350=mv^2

Momentum=mass x velocity

25=mv

m=25/v

Substitute m=25/v in 350=mv^2

350=25/v x v^2

350=25v^2/v

v^2/v=v

350=25v

v=350/25

v=14 m/s

For high and low tides differences would they be caused by the moon and how?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
The moon has a small amount of gravity. Low tides mean the moon is not pulling on the water. High tides mean that the moon is pulling on the water.
