About 12 hours is the time between a morning high tide and the next high tide

Explanation:

The Earth’s rotation happens between two tidal bulges  

The “periodic rise and fall” of the surface water levels of the ocean is called tides. The gravitational action and interaction on the earth by the sun and the moon causes these tides. Different regions of the World experiences different patterns of tides like the diurnal, semi-diurnal etc.

When there is one high and one low tide occurring on a lunar day, then it is diurnal pattern. Semi-diurnal pattern occurs when there are two equal high and low tides on a single lunar day.

Since the Earth’s rotation happens between two tidal “bulges” on each lunar day, the coastal areas can experience two high and two low tides in every 24 hours plus 50 minutes.

Accordingly the time between two high tides would be 12 hours plus 25 minutes. Similarly, the time gap between a high to low tide would be 6 hours plus 12.5 minutes.

In which direction does a bag at rest move when a force of 20 newtons is applied from the right? A. in the direction of the appl
-Dominant- [34]

The correct answer is A. In the direction of applied force. This is because acceleration occurs n the direction of applied force according to Newtons second law of motion which states that the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place in the direction of force.

A truck with 28-in.-diameter wheels is traveling at 50 mi/h. Find the angular speed of the wheels in rad/min, *hint convert mile
solong [7]

Answer:

Angular speed ω=3771.4 rad/min

Revolution=5921 rpm

Explanation:

Given data

d=28in\\r=d/2=28/2=14in\\v=50mi/hr

To find

Angular speed ω

Revolution per minute N

Solution

First we need to convert the speed of truck to inches per mile

as

1 mile=63360 inches

1 hour=60 minutes

so

v=(50*\frac{63360}{60} )\\v=52800in/min

Now to solve for angular speed ω by substituting the speed v and radius r in below equation

w=\frac{v}{r}\\ w=\frac{52800in/min}{14in}\\ w=3771.4rad/min

To solve for N(revolutions per minute) by substituting the angular speed ω in the following equation

N=\frac{w}{2\pi }\\ N=\frac{3771.4rad/min}{2\pi }\\ N=5921RPM

You plan to take a trip to the moon. Since you do not have a traditional spaceship with rockets, you will need to leave the eart
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

v = 3.5 \times 10^5 m/s

Explanation:

At some distance from the Earth the force of attraction due to moon is balanced by the force due to Moon

so we will have

\frac{GM_em}{r^2} = \frac{GM_m}{(d-r)^2}

now we have

\frac{d - r}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{M_m}{M_e}}

\frac{3.844\times 10^8 - r}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{7.36 \times 10^{22}}{5.9742\times 10^{24}}}

so we will have

r = 3.46 \times 10^8 m

Now by energy conservation

-\frac{GM_e}{R_e} - \frac{GM_m}{d - (R_e + R_m)} + \frac{1}{2}v^2 = -\frac{GM_e}{r} - \frac{GM_m}{d - r}

-6.26 \times 10^{8} - 13046 + \frac{1}{2}v^2 = -1.15 \times 10^6 - 1.28 \times 10^5

v = 3.5 \times 10^5 m/s
