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

Physics

White raven [17]3 years ago

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.

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

563.86 N

Explanation:

We know the buoyant force F = weight of air displaced by the balloon.

F = ρgV where ρ = density of air = 1.29 kg/m³, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and V = volume of balloon = 4πr/3 (since it is a sphere) where r = radius of balloon = 2.20 m

So, F = ρgV = ρg4πr³/3

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

F =  1.29 kg/m³ × 9.8 m/s² × 4π × (2.20 m)³/3

= 1691.58 N/3

= 563.86 N

The correct answer is  1.4285714.

In physics, velocity is characterised as a vector measurement of the motion's direction and speed. To be more precise, the rate of change in an object's position relative to a frame of reference and time is another way to describe velocity. The definition of velocity simply states the rate of motion of an object in a specific direction. It determines how quickly or slowly something is going.

Velocity = distance/ time  

Thus time = distance/velocity

Here velocity = 350m/s

diatnce = 500 m

time = 500/350

time = 1.42857142857

t= 200m /350m/s  = 1.4285714
