What causes tides on earth

Physics
1 answer:
Marina86 [1]2 years ago
7 0

Gravity is one major force that creates tides. In 1687, Sir Isaac Newton explained that ocean tides result from the gravitational attraction of the sun and moon on the oceans of the earth (Sumich, J.L., 1996). Tidal forces are based on the gravitational attractive force.

You place ammonium nitrate crystals in water and stirred. As you do so, the container becomes cold to the touch. This an example
ankoles [38]

The process of flask becoming cold is due to endothermic reaction.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

So two kinds of heat transfer can be possible in any chemical reaction. If the sample is considered as system and the sample container is considered as the surrounding, then heat transfer can occur between them.

If the heat is transferred from the surrounding to the system , then it is an endothermic reaction. And in those cases, the sample holder will be becoming colder. This is because the heat from the surrounding that is the container will be utilized to complete the reaction.

While when there is transfer of heat from the system to surrounding , it will be exothermic reaction and the beaker will be getting hot in this process. So in the present case, the container is becoming cold because of occurrence of endothermic process.

About once every 30 minutes, a geyser known as Old Faceful projects water 11.0 m straight up into the air. Use g = 9.80 m/s^2, a
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The speed of the water is 14.68 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 30 minutes

Distance = 11.0 m

Pressure = 101.3 kPa

Density of water = 1000 kg/m³

We need to calculate the speed of the water

Using equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2gs

Where, u = speed of water

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height

Put the value into the formula

0=u^2-2\times9.8\times11.0

u=\sqrt{2\times9.8\times11.0}

u=14.68\ m/s

Hence, The speed of the water is 14.68 m/s.

What number on this diagram refers to the tick marks for the dependent variable?
givi [52]

Answer:

I'm pretty sure it's 3.

Explanation:

Because if you look at your options the only that would be relevant to tick marks would be either 4 or 3. And it said in the question that we're looking for the one for the dependent variable. And the dependent variable is on the Y- Axis and the 3 is the tick marks for the y-axis. So your answer is 3.
