How does gravity affect the motions of Earth and the Moon?

Physics

RoseWind [281]2 years ago

Answer:

The Sun's gravitational pull keeps our planet orbiting the Sun. The motion of the Moon is affected by the gravity of the Sun and Earth. Moon's gravity pulls on the Earth and makes the tides rise and fall.

Answer:

Gravity is making the Earth go around the Sun, it's also making the Moon go around the Earth, and somehow (I don't know how) the Moon's gravity messes with the water on Earth.

Y=1/2 at^2 solve for t
Aloiza [94]

Explanation:

y = ½ at²

Multiply both sides by 2:

2y = at²

Divide both sides by a:

t² = 2y/a

Take the square root of both sides:

t = √(2y/a)

PART ONE
stira [4]

Answer:

3.64×10⁸ m

3.34×10⁻³ m/s²

Explanation:

Let's define some variables:

M₁ = mass of the Earth

r₁ = r = distance from the Earth's center

M₂ = mass of the moon

r₂ = d − r = distance from the moon's center

d = distance between the Earth and the moon

When the gravitational fields become equal:

GM₁m / r₁² = GM₂m / r₂²

M₁ / r₁² = M₂ / r₂²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d − r)²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d² − 2dr + r²)

M₁ (d² − 2dr + r²) = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + M₁ r² = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + (M₁ − M₂) r² = 0

d² − 2d r + (1 − M₂/M₁) r² = 0

Solving with quadratic formula:

r = [ 2d ± √(4d² − 4 (1 − M₂/M₁) d²) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − (1 − M₂/M₁)) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − 1 + M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

When we plug in the values, we get:

r = 3.64×10⁸ m

If the moon wasn't there, the acceleration due to Earth's gravity would be:

g = GM / r²

g = (6.672×10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²) (5.98×10²⁴ kg) / (3.64×10⁸ m)²

g = 3.34×10⁻³ m/s²

A piston raises a weight, then lowers it again to its original height. If the process the system follows as the piston rises is
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Negative

Explanation:

First law of thermodynamic also known as the  law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system is constant; energy can be transformed from one form to another, but can be neither created nor destroyed.

The first law relates  relates changes in internal energy to heat added to a system and the work done by a system by the conservation of energy.

The first law is mathematically given as ΔU  = U_{F} - U_{0} = Q - W

Where Q  = Quantity of heat

            W = Work done

From the first law The internal energy has the symbol U. Q is positive if heat is added to the system, and negative if heat is removed; W is positive if work is done by the system, and negative if work is done on the system.

Analyzing the pistol when it raises in isothermal and when it falls in  isobaric state.The following can be said:

In the Isothermal compression of a gas there is work done on the system to decrease the volume and increase the pressure. For work to be done on the system it is a negative work done then.

In the Isobaric State An isobaric process occurs at constant pressure. Since the pressure is constant, the force exerted is constant and the work done is given as PΔV.If a gas is to expand at a constant pressure, heat should be transferred into the system at a certain rate.Isobaric is a fuction of heat which is Isothermal Provided the pressure is kept constant.

In Isobaric definition above it can be seen that " Heat should be transferred into the system ata certain rate. For heat to be transferred into the system work is deinitely been done on the system thereby favouring the negative work done.

As the shuttle bus comes to a sudden stop to avoid hitting a dog, it accelerates uniformly at -4.1 m/s^2 as it slows from 9.0 m/
zhuklara [117]

Acceleration  =  (change in speed) / (time for the change)

      - 4.1 m/s²  =  (-9 m/s)  /  (time for the change)

Time for the change  =  (-9 m/s) / (-4.1 m/s²)  =   2.2 seconds
