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.

What force does a trampoline have to apply to a gymnast to accelerate her straight up at ? Note that the answer is independent o
Andrew [12]

Answer: Force applied by trampoline = 778.5 N

<em>Note: The question is incomplete.</em>

<em>The complete question is : What force does a trampoline have to apply to a 45.0 kg gymnast to accelerate her straight up at 7.50 m/s^2? note that the answer is independent of the velocity of the gymnast. She can be moving either up or down or be stationary. </em>

Explanation:

The total required the trampoline by the trampoline = net force accelerating the gymnast upwards + force of gravity on her.

= (m * a) + (m * g)

= m ( a + g)

= 45 kg ( 7.50 *  9.80) m/s²

Force applied by trampoline = 778.5 N

1. How do you determine which between the two object has a greater amount of potential energy?
jeka94

Answer:

All of these answers are dependent upon the specific scenario, but here are some general answers.

1. An object with a greater height will have more potential energy.

2. Potential energy can be changed into kinetic energy as an object falls. It loses height (potential energy) and gains speed (kinetic energy).

3. Depends on what scenario your class had.

Wool:

This is Fabric B. Wool is basically hard to ignite. It burns slowly. Its ash is dark in color. The wool fabric smells of burning hair when it is burnt.

Silk Yarn:

This is Fabric C. The silk yarn shrinks from the flame when it is burned. It has a grayish black ash. The silk yarn fabric smells burnt meat of  when it is burnt.
