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.

A student used a yardstick to model the displacement of rock at a fault during an earthquake. The student bent the yardstick wit
jonny [76]
I think the correct answer would be B. The process of elastic rebound is being shown by the student. It is a theory that is used to explain earthquakes. It focuses on how energy is being spread in times of earthquakes. As the rocks on the fault experiences shift and force, these rocks would be accumulating energy causing it to deform reaching the internal strength and eventually exceeding it. At that moment, a rapid motion would happen along the fault, which releases the energy, then the rocks would go back to its original shape or the undeformed state. This theory is the first theory that sufficiently was able to explain earthquakes.

6. If a bicyclist, with initial velocity of zero, steadily gained speed until reaching a final velocity of 39m/s, how far would
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

  175 m

Explanation:

The average velocity for constant acceleration is the average of the beginning and ending velocities. That is (0+39)/2=19.5 m/s. If the bicyclist rides for 9 seconds, the distance traveled is ...

  (9 s)(19.5 m/s) = 175.5 m

She would travel 175.5 meters in that time.

A power cycle operates between a lake’s surface water at a temperature of 300 K and water at a depth whose temperature is 285 K.
nikdorinn [45]

Answer: a) 0.04kW = 40W

b) 0.05

Explanation:

A)

Thermal efficiency of the power cycle = Input / output

Input = 10 kW + 14,400 kJ/min = 10 kW + 14,400 kJ/(60s) = 10 kW + 14,400/60 kW.

Output = 10 kW

Thermal Efficiency = Output / Input = 10kW / 250kW = 0.04KW = 40W

B)

Maximum Thermal Efficiency of the power cycle = 1 - T1/T2

Where T1 = 285kelvin

And T2 = 300kelvin

Maximum Thermal Efficiency = 1 - T1/T2 = 1 - 285/300 = 0.05
