using mass and distance, identify and compare the sun's and moon's contribution to the formation of tides on earth

Scientists are making plans to put a probe in orbit around Earth. They want the probe to enter the orbit shown below.

An arrow which shows the direction that the probe should be moving in order for it to enter the orbit is X.

<h3>What is an orbit?</h3>

An orbit can be defined as the curved path through which a astronomical (celestial) object such as planet Earth, in space move around a Moon, Sun, planet or star.

In this scenario, if the scientists want the probe to enter the orbit they should ensure that probe moves in direction X. This ultimately implies that, the probe must move in the same direction as the orbit, in order to enter it.

A demented scientist creates a new temperature scale, the "Z scale." He decides to call the boiling point of nitrogen 0°Z and th

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

A) $Z = 0.577 C +112.931$

$Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z$

B) $C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C$

C) $K = C +273.15$

$K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K$

Explanation:

For this case we want to create a function like this:

$Z = a C + b$

Where Z represent the degrees for the Z scale C the Celsius grades and tha valus a and b parameters for the model.

The boiling point of nitrogen is -195,8 °C

The melting point of iron is 1538 °C

We know the following equivalences:

-195.8 °C = 0 °Z

1538 °C = 1000 °Z

Let's say that one point its (1538C, 1000 Z) and other one is (-195.8 C, 0Z)

So then we can calculate the slope for the linear model like this:

$a = \frac{z_2 -z_1}{c_2 -c_1}= \frac{1000 Z- 0Z}{1538C -(-195.8 C)}=\frac{1000 Z}{1733.8 C}=0.577 \frac{Z}{C}$

And now for the slope we can use one point let's use for example (-195.8C, 0Z), and we have this:

$0 = 0.577 (-195.8) + b$

And if we solve for b we got:

$b = 0.577*195.8 =112.931 Z$

So then our lineal model would be:

$Z = 0.577 C +112.931$

Part A

The boiling point of water is 100C so we just need to replace in the model and see what we got:

$Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z$

Part B

For this case we have Z =100 and we want to solve for C, so we can do this:

$Z-112.931 = 0.577 C$

$C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C$

Part C

For this case we know that $K = C +273.15$

And we can use the result from part B to solve for K like this:

$K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K$

Scientists can use spectral analysis of stars to determine which of the following?

RoseWind [281]

I do believe all of these but core elements can be determined by spectroscopy which includes the use of electromagnetic radiation. Both the surface and core temperature can be measured using light. Surface elements can be found because the absorption lines of different elements in the spectra of the star, but I haven't heard anything about using spectral analysis for core elements.

Yolanda is studying two waves. The first wave has an amplitude of 2 m, and the second has an amplitude of 3 m. Which statement a

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

a) Not Accurate

b) Not Accurate

c) Accurate

d) Accurate

Explanation:

Part a

Not Accurate, because destructive interference would lead to maximum possible magnitude of < 3 m

Part b

Not Accurate, because constructive interference would lead to minimum possible magnitude of > 2 m

Part c

Accurate, because destructive interference would lead to maximum possible magnitude of < 3 m by varying the phase difference between two waves she can achieve the desired results.

Part d

Accurate, because constructive interference would lead to minimum possible magnitude of > 2 m by varying the phase difference between two waves she can achieve the desired results.

A car maintains a constant speed v as it traverses the hill and valley as shown below. Both the hill and valley have a radius of

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

As given that the car maintains a constant speed v as it traverses the hill and valley where both the valley and hill have a radius of curvature R.

(i) At point C, the normal force acting on the car is largest because the centripetal force is up. gravity is down and normal force is up. net force is up so magnitude of normal force must be greater than the car's weight.

(ii) At point A, the normal force acting on the car is smallest because the centripetal force is down. gravity is down and normal force is up. net force is up so magnitude of normal force must be less than car's weight.

(iii) At point C, the driver will feel heaviest because the driver's apparent weight is the normal force on her body.

(iv) At point A, the driver will feel the lightest.

(v)The car can go that much fast without losing contact with the road at A can be determined as follow:

Fn=0 - lose contact with road

Fg= mv²/r

mg=mv²/r

v=sqrt (gr)
