Why does the moon's gravity have a greater effect on the earth's ocean than the sun.

Physics
1 answer:
White raven [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Tides on our planet are caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon and Sun. Earth's oceans "bulge out" because the Moon's gravity pulls a little harder on one side of our planet (the side closer to the Moon) than it does on the other. The Sun's gravity raises tides, too, but lunar tides are twice as big.

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Rubber is an insulator.

Explanation:

Rubber is an insulator. Electricity will always travel "the path of least resistance." Rubber has a very high resistance, so electricity will go somewhere else to find ground.

how is the position of electrons involved in metallic bonding different from the position of electrons that form ionic and coval
Yuri [45]
While ionic bonds join metals to nonmetals, and covalent bonds join nonmetals to nonmetals, metallic bonds are responsible for the bondingbetween metal atoms. In metallic bonds, the valence electrons from the s and p orbitals of the interacting metal atoms delocalize.

Please help me, this is a physics test.
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

a = 2 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To be able to solve this problem we must make it clear that the starting point when the time is equal to zero, the velocity is 5 [m/s] and when three seconds have passed the velocity is 11 [m/s], this point is the final point or the final velocity.

We can use the following equation.

v_{f}=v_{o}+a*t\\

where:

Vf = final velocity = 11 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 5 [m/s]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

t = time = 3 [s]

11 = 5 + a*3\\6=3*a\\a= 2[m/s^{2} ]
