The greatest tidal extremes occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth
are all lined up along the same straight line. Those occasions are
at the time of the Full Moon ... when the Earth is the middle one ...
and the time of the New Moon ... when the Moon is the middle one.
Those are the occasions of the highest high tides and the lowest
low tides, known collectively as "Spring tides".

The smallest tidal extremes occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth
form a right angle, with the Earth at the vertex. Those occasions are
at the time of the First Quarter and Third Quarter Moon. Those are
the occasions of the highest low tides and the lowest high tides,
known collectively as "Neap tides".

#1 & #3: Spring tides
#2: False

Question 1: the full moon is a spring tide

Question 2 is true. Neap Tides do have higher and lower tides than normal.

Question 3: (the same as Question 1)-- The new moon is a spring tide

If a car takes a banked curve at less than a given speed, friction is needed to keep it from sliding toward the inside of the cu

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

minimum speed is 15.35 m/s

frictional coefficient is 0.26

Explanation:

given data

radius = 84 m

angle = 16°

speed = 16 km/h = 4.43 m/s

to find out

minimum speed and minimum coefficient

solution

we will apply here formula for velocity that is

velocity² = radius × g × tanθ

v² = 84 × 9.8 × tan16

v² = 236.04

v = 15.35 m/s

and

we find first friction force here

friction force 1 = m v² /r

friction force 1 = m (15.35)² / 84 = 2.80 m

and

friction force 2 = m v² /r

friction force 2 = m (4.43)² / 84 = 0.245 m

so total friction force = f1 - f2

total friction force = 2.80 - 0.245 = 2.55 m

so frictional coefficient = friction force /g

frictional coefficient = 2.55 / 9.8

so frictional coefficient is 0.26

A uniformly charged ball of radius a and charge –Q is at the center of a hollowmetal shell with inner radius b and outer radius

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

r < a:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{a^3}$

r = a:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi a^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}$

a < r < b:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}$

r = b:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi b^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}$

b < r < c:

E = 0

r = c:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{c^2}$

r < c:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}$

Explanation:

Gauss' Law will be applied to each region to find the E-field.

$\int \vec{E}d\vec{a} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{\epsilon_0}$

An imaginary sphere is drawn with radius r, which is equal to the point where the E-field is asked. The area of this imaginary sphere is multiplied by E, and this is equal to the charge enclosed by this imaginary surface divided by ε0.

r<a:

Since the ball is uniformly charged and not hollow, then the enclosed charge can be found by the following method: If the total ball has a charge -Q and volume V, then the enclosed part of the ball has a charge Q_enc and volume V_enc. Then;

$\frac{Q}{V} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{V_{encl}}\\\frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi a^3} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}\\Q_{encl} = \frac{Qr^3}{a^3}$

Applying Gauss' Law:

$E4\pi r^2 = \frac{-Qr^3}{\epsilon_0 a^3}\\E = -\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{a^3}\\E = \frac{r}{4\pi a^3}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}$

The minus sign determines the direction of the field, which is towards the center.

At r = a:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi a^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}$

At a < r < b:

The imaginary surface is drawn between the inner surface of the metal sphere and the smaller ball. In this case the enclosed charge is equal to the total charge of the ball, -Q.

$E4\pi r^2 = \frac{-Q}{\epsilon_0}\\E = -\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}$

At r = b:

$E = -\frac{1}{4\pi b^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}$

Again, the minus sign indicates the direction of the field towards the center.

At b < r < c:

The hollow metal sphere has a net charge of +2Q. Since the sphere is a conductor, all of its charges are distributed across its surface. No charge is present within the sphere. The smaller ball has a net charge of -Q, so the inner surface of the metal sphere must possess a net charge of +Q. Since the net charge of the metal sphere is +2Q, then the outer surface of the metal should possess +Q.

Now, the imaginary surface is drawn inside the metal sphere. The total enclosed charge in this region is zero, since the total charge of the inner surface (+Q) and the smaller ball (-Q) is zero. Therefore, the Electric region in this region is zero.

E = 0.

At r < c:

The imaginary surface is drawn outside of the metal sphere. In this case, the enclosed charge is +Q (The metal (+2Q) plus the smaller ball (-Q)).

$E4\pi r^2 = \frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}\\E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}$

At r = c:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{c^2}$

Question 4 options: The steps that lead you from dependence to independence are referred to as The _________ to Lifetime Fitness

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Stairway.

Explanation:

The steps that lead you from dependence to independence are referred to as the stairway to Lifetime Fitness, Health, and Wellness.

This ultimately implies that, these stairway or steps are very important and essential for all humans who seek Lifetime Fitness, Health, and Wellness.

A good health can be defined as the state of well-being (wellness) in which all of the components of an individual's health are balanced. These state of wellness comprises of six (6) important components and they are;

1. Physical: this is a measure of the state of an individual's body or the way the body functions. It is enhanced by eating right, working out or exercising, avoiding drugs and alcohol, maintaining a good body mass index etc.

2. Emotional: this deals with the state of an individual's mind being void of worries, negativity etc.

3. Social: this involves keeping a good relationship with friends, family and many others around.

4. Environmental: it deals with maintaining a hygienic surrounding, that is devoid of pollutants.

5. Mental or intellectual: avoiding unnecessary stress and anxiety while dealing or coping with the realities of life.

6. Spiritual: it encompasses belief systems, values, ideals, morality etc.

Hence, when an individual is able to balance all of these above mentioned components, then he or she is said to be healthy.
