What do you think would happen to earth's tides if the moon was not there? the tides would....?

defon

Their are things call solar tides which are the effects of the sun But it would be alot calmer with out the moon.

Suppose you could fit 100 dimes, end to end, between your card with the pinhole and your dime-sized sunball. how many suns could

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: 100 suns

Explanation:

We can solve this with the following relation:

$\frac{d}{x_{sunball-pinhole}}=\frac{D}{x_{sun-pinhole}}$

Where:

$d=17.91 mm =17.91(10)^{-3} m$ is the diameter of a dime

$D$ is the diameter of the Sun

$x_{sun-pinhole}=150,000,000 km=1.5(10)^{11} m$ is the distance between the Sun and the pinhole

$x_{sunball-pinhole}=100 d=1.791 m$ is the amount of dimes that fit in a distance between the sunball and the pinhole

Finding $D$ :

$D=\frac{d}{x_{sunball-pinhole}}x_{sun-pinhole}$

$D=\frac{17.91(10)^{-3} m}{1.791 m} 1.5(10)^{11} m$

$D=1.5(10)^{9} m$ This is roughly the diameter of the Sun

Now, the distance between the Earth and the Sun is one astronomical unit (1 AU), which is equal to:

$1 AU=149,597,870,700 m$

So, we have to divide this distance between $D$ in order to find how many suns could it fit in this distance:

$\frac{149,597,870,700 m}{1.5(10)^{9} m}=99.73 suns \approx 100 suns$

Telephone signals are often transmitted over long distances by microwaves. What is the frequency of microwave radiation with a w

amm1812

Answer:

1) f= 8.6 GHz

2) t= 0.2 ms

Explanation:

1)

Since microwaves are electromagnetic waves, they move at the same speed as the light in vacuum, i.e. 3*10⁸ m/s.
There exists a fixed relationship between the frequency (f) , the wavelength (λ) and the propagation speed in any wave, as follows:

$v = \lambda * f (1)$

Replacing by the givens, and solving for f, we get:

$f =\frac{c}{\lambda} =\frac{3e8m/s}{0.035m} = 8.57e9 Hz (2)$

⇒ f = 8.6 Ghz (with two significative figures)

2)

Assuming that the microwaves travel at a constant speed in a straight line (behaving like rays) , we can apply the definition of average velocity, as follows:

$v =\frac{d}{t} (3)$

where v= c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s

d= distance between mountaintops = 52 km = 52*10³ m

Solving for t, we get:

$t = \frac{d}{c} = \frac{52e3m}{3e8m/s} = 17.3e-5 sec = 0.173e-3 sec = 0.173 ms (4)$

⇒ t = 0.2 ms (with two significative figures)

Which of the following is fact-based science rather than part of a personal belief system?

marusya05 [52]

Since there are no choices, then this question calls for open-ended answers. Facts-based science must have proven underlying laws that support inferences such as Coulomb's Law, Kinetic Theory of Matter and many more. On the other hand, examples of science that focus on personal belief is philosophy. This depends on the perspective of known philosophers. An example would be Sigmund Freud who proposed the theory of 3 personalities. Although it is more on personal beliefs, this is used as a foundation in the study of psychology.
