12. Tides are caused mainly by the _________ in the gravitational effect of the Moon on the near, middle, and far sides of the E
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

1. difference

2. closest

3. high

4. more

5. two

Explanation:

The tide is the periodic change of the sea level produced mainly by the gravitational attraction forces that the Sun and the Moon exert on the Earth. This attraction is exercised over the entire planet, in its solid, liquid, and gaseous masses. The ellipsoid due to solar tides has the major axis directed towards the Sun. The ellipsoid due to lunar tides has the major axis directed towards the Moon. As the Moon revolves around the Earth, the major axes of the ellipsoids do not rotate at the same speed. With respect to the stars, the period of rotation of the solar ellipsoid is one year. The ellipsoid of the Moon is 27.32 days. The result is that the axes of the two ellipsoids get closer every 14,7652944 days. When the major axes of the two ellipsoids are aligned, the amplitude of the tides is maximum and they are called live tides. This happens in new moons and full moons. In contrast, when the major axis of each ellipsoid is aligned with the minor axis of the other, the amplitude of the tides is minimal. This happens in waning rooms and growing rooms. These tides are called dead tides or quadrature tides.

one angle of a triangle measures 125 degrees the other two angles are in a ratio of 4:7. what are the measures of the two angles
Ilya [14]
Angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.
180 - 125 = 55
Add the ratios 4+7 = 11
Divide the left over angels by the ratio: 55/11 = 5
Now multiply 5 by each side of the ratio:
4:7
4*5 = 20
7*5 = 35

So the 2 angles are 20 and 35 degrees.

To check, you can add up all the angels : 20 + 35 + 125 = 180
So we know 20 and 35 is correct because it adds up to 180 degrees :)
