Tidal bulges are always on the opposite side of the Earth.
They are created because of the gravitational influence of the Moon on Earth and inertial's counter balance.

The side of the Earth that is facing the Moon is the closest to the Moon, and the gravitational force is the strongest when the distance is the smallest.  

As the Moon is trying to draw the water towards itself, the inertia tries to keep the water at its place. On the opposite side of the Earth, "behind the Moon",  the gravitational force of the Moon is the weakest, so inertia is the strongest. That's why tidal bulges are at the opposite side.

Hello!

First one we can use that PE=mgh so we have

4.37*10^5J/(9.12*10^3kg*9.80m/s^2)= 4.89m

Second one we can use Newton’s Second Law
F=ma and in this case F=mg so we have

g= 3.28*10^-2N/6*10^-3kg = 5.47m/s^2

Hope this helps. Any questions please ask. Thank you.

What is the speed of alpha rays, beta rays and gamma rays ?
Leya [2.2K]
Alpha particles are released by proton rich unstable nuclei. It has no electrons to balance the protons making it positively charged particles moving at very high speeds. Gamma articles are electromagnetic waves of short wavelength and high frequency. It has a speed same as the speed of light. Beta particles are released by neutron rich unstable nuclei. It has a speed of less than the gamma particles.
