Answer:

Explanation:

A ) The smallest tidal ranges are less than 1 m (3 feet). The highest tides, called spring tides, are formed when the earth, sun and moon are lined up in a row. This happens every two weeks during a new moon or full moon. Smaller tides, called neap tides, are formed when the earth, sun and moon form a right angle.

C ) The most extreme tidal range occurs during spring tides, when the gravitational forces of both the Moon and Sun are aligned (syzygy), reinforcing each other in the same direction (new moon) or in opposite directions (full moon).

Suppose you have a Frisbee with a mass of 0.10 kg. You first throw it with a force of 5N and then change the force you throw it
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The acceleration increases.

Explanation:

From Newton's 2nd Law, we have \Sigma F=ma. We can see that force is directly proportional to mass and acceleration. Therefore, as force increases, either mass or acceleration must increase as well, and vice versa. Since mass is maintained here, if you increase the force applied to the Frisbee, the acceleration will increase as well.

If a 2,000-kg car hits a tree with 500 n of force over a time of 0.5 seconds, what is the magnitude of its impulse?
Elden [556K]
Impulse = Force * time
Impulse = 500N *0.5 s =250 N*s

Most comets have short periods and orbit close to the ecliptic plane. (T/F)
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Most comets are located outside the solar system, in part of the cloud that originated from dust and gas that has remained virtually untouchable for billions of years. The orbit of these comets can reach the order of a light year. Thus, they are called long-period comets.

HELP!!!
Vitek1552 [10]
We shall consider two properties:
1. Temperature difference
2. Thermal conductivity of the material

Use a cylindrical rod of a given material (say steel) which is insulated around its circumference.

One end of the rod is dipped in a large reservoir of water at 100 deg.C and the other end is dipped in water (with known volume) at 40 deg. C. The cold water if stored in a cylinder which is insulated on all sides. A thermometer reads the temperature of the cold water as a function of time.

This experiment will show that
(a) heat flows from a region of high temperature to a region of lower temperature.
(b) The thermal energy of a body increases when heat is added to it, and its temperature will rise.
(c) The thermal conductivity of water determines how quickly its temperature will rise. If mercury replaces water in the cold cylinder, its temperature will rise at a different rate because its thermal conductivity is different.

Which explanation is based on scientific evidence?​
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Scientific evidence is evidence that serves to either support or counter a scientific theory or hypothesis. Such evidence is expected to be empirical evidence and interpretable in accordance with scientific method.
