If the moon were twice as massive but twice as far from Earth, high tides on Earth would be – (think of it’s force)

<h3>Hi!</h3>

The answer would be B. Lower.

Explanation:

This is because Force between two bodies is directly proportional to the mass of an object, but inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So if the mass of the moon becomes twice, the force would also be twice as strong. (2 F ) , but if the distance is doubled, this force (2 F ) would be quartered ( 2F/4 = F/2 ) which would be half of the original force F.

Hence if the force is halved, the tides would be lower.

<h3>Hope this helps!</h3>

The universe was 5 percent its current size when light left objects observed now at redshift of ______________
Nuetrik [128]

The redshift of distant galaxy are larger than those of closer galaxies, which indicates that the galaxy is receding at a faster rate.

  • The Universe was 5 percent its current size when light left objects now at redshift of <u>19</u>.

Reasons:

The size of the universe represented as a scale factor with relation to the redshift can be presented as follows;

\displaystyle \frac{a}{a_0}  =\mathbf{ \frac{1}{1 + z}}

Where;

a₀ = The current size of the Universe

a = The size of the early Universe = 5% of a

Therefore;

\displaystyle \frac{a}{a_0}  =5\% = 0.05=  \frac{1}{1 + z}

\displaystyle 0.05  = \frac{1}{1 + z}

0.05 + 0.05·z = 1

\displaystyle z = \mathbf{ \frac{1 - 0.05}{0.05} } = 19

  • The redshift is of the observed light is, z = <u>19</u>

n outer space, a constant net force with a magnitude of 140 N is exerted on a 32.5 kg probe initially at rest. A) What accelerat
musickatia [10]

Answer:

a) 4.31 m/s²

b) 215.5 m

Explanation:

a) According to Newton's first law of motion

The net force applied to particular mass produced acceleration, a, according to

F = ma

F = 140 N

m = 32.5 kg

a = ?

140 = 32.5 × a

a = 140/32.5 = 4.31 m/s²

b) Using the equations of motion, we can obtain the distance travelled by the object in t = 10 s

u = initial velocity of the probe = 0 m/s (since it was initially at rest)

a = 4.31 m/s²

t = 10 s

s = distance travelled = ?

s = ut + at²/2

s = 0 + (4.31×10²)/2 = 215.5 m

A light ray travels in the +x direction and strikes a slanted surface with an angle of 62° between its normal and the ty axis. T
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

- 0.6

Explanation:

Given that angle between normal y axis is 62° so angle between  normal

and x axis will be 90- 62 = 28 °. Since incident ray is along x axis , 28 ° will be the angle between incident ray and normal ie it will be angle of incidence

Angle of incidence = 28 °

angle of reflection = 28°

Angle between incident ray and reflected ray = 28 + 28 = 56 °

Angle between x axis and reflected ray = 56 °

x component of reflected ray

= - cos 56 ( it will be towards - ve x axis. )

sineoko [7]

Answer:

Mass is constant everywhere,

But weight is different,

If earth g = 10 then moon's is 1.6666667

Now billie's weight in moon is 41.6667
