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.

A glass tube 1 mm in diameter is dipped into glycerin. The density of the glycerin is 1260 kg/m3, surface tension is 6.3x10-2 N/
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The capillary rise of the glycerin is most nearly  y  =  0.0204 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The diameter of the glass tube is  d =  1 \ mm =  0.001 \ m

   The density of glycerin is  \rho =  1260 \ kg /m^3

   The surface tension of the glycerin is \sigma   =  6.3 *10^{-2} \ N /m

The capillary rise of the glycerin is mathematically represented as

       y  =  \frac{4 * \sigma  *  cos (\theta )}{ \rho * g *  d}

substituting value  

       y  =  \frac{4 * 6.3 *10^{-2}  *  cos (0 )}{ 1260 * 9.8 *  0.001}

      y  =  0.0204 \ m

Therefore the height  of the glass tube  the glycerin was able to cover is

y  =  0.0204 \ m

A heat engine does 200 j of work per cycle while exhausting 600 j of heat to the cold reservoir. what is the engine's thermal ef
AveGali [126]
The thermal efficiency of an engine is
\eta= \frac{W}{Q}
where
W is the work done by the engine
Q is the heat absorbed by the engine to do the work

In this problem, the work done by the engine is W=200 J, while the heat exhausted is Q=600 J, so the efficiency of the machine is
\eta= \frac{W}{Q}= \frac{200 J}{600 J}=0.33 = 33 \%

1)a persons ________ will change if they move from the earth to the moon
fgiga [73]

A person's weight will change if they move from the earth to the moon. This does not however, change the person's mass. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, and volume is how much space it takes up. On the moon, there is a lighter gravitational pull on said person, so they will not weigh as much if they stepped on a scale.
