Minute after minute, hour after hour, day after day, ocean waves continue to splash onto the shore. Explain why the beach is not

completely submerged and why the middle of the ocean has not yet been depleted of its water supply. A) Ocean waves can only bring water to the shore but cannot take it back. The momentum of the water particles switches direction when the wave hits the shore and this momentum takes all the water back into the ocean. B) Ocean waves bring the water and also take it all the way back into the ocean. As such, water does not pile up on the beach. C) Ocean waves can only bring energy to the shore; the particles of the medium (water) simply oscillate about their fixed position. D) None of the choices are correct.

Answer: C. Ocean waves can only bring energy to the shore; the particles of the medium (water) simply oscillate about their fixed position.

Explanation:

The reason why the beach is not completely submerged and the reason why the middle of the ocean has not been depleted of its water supply is due to the fact that water isn't transported by ocean waves.

It should be noted that even a single drop of water cannot be brought by the ocean wave to the shore from the middle of the ocean.

The only thing that the ocean waves can bring to the shore is energy. Hemce, the water particles oscillate in their fixed position which is vital in making sure that the beach isn't piled up with water.

What is E=m² the famous theory of albert einstien?
pshichka [43]
Actually it's E = mc^{2} and it says that the energy of an object (E) is equal to the mass (m) of the object multiplied with the squared speed of light (c^{2}). This theory says that mass can be turned into energy and energy can be turned into mass. This is one of Einstein's theory of relativity.

Each of the following diagrams shows a spaceship somewhere along the way between Earth and the Moon (not to scale); the midpoint
djyliett [7]

Answer:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.

Explanation:

For this case the figure attached shows the illustration for the problem

We have an inverse square law with distance for the force, so then the force of gravity between Earth and the spaceship is lower when the spaceship is far away from Earth.

Th formula is given by:

F = G \frac{m_{Earth} m_{Spaceship}}{r^2}

Where G is a constant G = 6.674 x10^{-11} m^2/ (ks s^2)

m_{Earth} represent the mass for the earth

m_{spaceship} represent the mass for the spaceship

r represent the radius between the earth and the spaceship

For this reason when the distance between the Earth and the Spaceship increases the Force of gravity needs to decrease since are inversely proportional the force and the radius, and for the other case when the Earth and the spaceship are near then the radius decrease and the Force increase.

Based on this case we can create the following rank:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.
