How would the gravitational force between the earth and the moon change if the moon had half the mass?

Physics
1 answer:
Vikki [24]3 years ago
5 0

The moon's gravity, combined with the waltz of Earth and the moon around their center of mass, forces the oceans into an oval shape, with two simultaneous high tides. ... If the moon were half its mass, then the ocean tides would have been correspondingly smaller and imparted less energy to it.

ollegr [7]

I really don't understand what's behind this question at all,
but I can sure do the math:

           Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance) .

                      =       ( 36 meters)         /        (13 seconds)

                      =         (36/13)      (meters/second)

                      =         2.7692... meters per second  (rounded)

                                 (about   6.2  miles per hour)   .

What happened as the mass of the sun increased during formation of the solor system
sveta [45]

Answer:

Formation. Our solar system formed about 4.5 billion years ago from a dense cloud of interstellar gas and dust. ... When this dust cloud collapsed, it formed a solar nebula—a spinning, swirling disk of material. At the center, gravity pulled more and more material in.

What is the best approximate value for the elastic potential energy (EPE) of the spring elongated by 3.0 meters?
klasskru [66]

P.E=0.0675 J

Explanation:

Elastic potential Energy=Force × distance of displacement

The formula to apply is;

P.E=1/2 ks²

where k is the spring constant given as; 1.5 *10^-2 N/m  and s is the displacement

In this case,

s=3

P.E= 1/2 * 1.5 × 10^-2 ×3²

P.E=1.5×10^-2*4.5

P.E=0.0675 J

What is de Broglie's hypothesis ? Make sure to be specific (qualitative and quantitative)
victus00 [196]

Answer and Explanation:

DE BROGLIE 'S HYPOTHESIS :

  • According to De broglie the matter have dual nature it can behave as particle as well as wave
  • According to this hypothesis all matter have wave like property and having wavelength.
  • The de broglie wavelength is given by \lambda =\frac{h}{P} here h is plank's constant and P is momentum
  • This hypothesis determines the probability of finding the object at a give point

A ferris wheel has a radius of 36 feet and completes one revolution every 5.4 minutes. what is the speed of the ferris wheel (in
KIM [24]
In order to find the speed per minute you will have to divide the two numbers together. You need to do 36/5.4 so the answer will be around 6.7 feet per minute.
