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.

An x-ray beam of a certain wavelength is incident on a crystal, at 30.7° to a certain family of reflecting planes of spacing 33.
klemol [59]

Answer:

λ=34.068pm

Explanation:

Wavelength λ=2dsinθ

λ=2(33.4pm)sin30.7

λ=2(33.4pm) * 0.510

λ=66.8* sin30.7

λ=66.8*0.510

λ=34.068pm

X-rays are usually produced by charged particles that are accelerating or decelerating such as a beam of electrons striking a metal plate in an X-ray tube.

An ideal gas is confined within a closed cylinder at atmospheric pressure (1.013 * 105 Pa) by a piston. The piston moves until t
likoan [24]

Answer:

911700\ \text{Pa}

Explanation:

P_1 = Initial pressure = 1.013\times 10^5\ \text{Pa}

V_1 = Initial volume

V_2= Final volume = \dfrac{V_1}{9}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=9

Temperature is the same in the initial and final state

From the ideal gas law we have

P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{V_2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=P_1\times9\\\Rightarrow P_2=1.013\times 10^5\times 9\\\Rightarrow P_2=911700\ \text{Pa}

The final pressure of the system is 911700\ \text{Pa}.
