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.

How do contact and non-contact forces affect the design of different modes of transportation?
padilas [110]

Contact and non contact forces are big factors to consider in designing of different modes of transportation because this factors are resistances for the mode of transportation. These contact and non- contact forces should be minimized in order for the energy requirement to be also minimum. But not the extent of risking the safety, for example a non contact force is the wieght, the should be optimum, safety of the design should not be compromised just to reduce weight, just like by removing essential parts, support just to remove weight is not good.

A ball of mass 24.1 g is attached to a cord of length 0.417 m and rotates in a vertical circle. What is the minimum speed the ba
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

<em>the minimum speed that the ball must have so that the cord does not become slack is</em> <em>2.02 m/s.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

In order to avoid slack, the centripetal force of the ball must equal its weight at the top of the circle. Therefore,

F_c = F_g

m v² / r = m g

v² = g r

v = √[g r]

v = √[(9.8 m/s²)(0.417 m)]

<em>v = 2.02 m/s </em>

Therefore,<em> the minimum speed that the ball must have so that the cord does not become slack is</em> <em>2.02 m/s.</em>

How does energy limit the number of trophic levels in an energy pyramid?
nadya68 [22]

Answer: The amount of energy at each trophic level decreases as it moves through an ecosystem. As little as 10 percent of the energy at any trophic level is transferred to the next level; the rest is lost largely through metabolic processes as heat.

What is the half-life of an isotope if 125 g of a 500 g sample of the isotope remains after 3.0 years?
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

125 / 500 = 1/4    of the sample left after 3.0 yrs

1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4        sample has decayed thru 2 half-lives

2 * HL = 3

1 Half-Life = 1.5 yrs
