Answer:

Option D, only on the portion of the Earth facing directly toward the Moon

Explanation:

Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of moon. The part of earth that faces the moon experiences the highest gravitational force and hence the high tides will occur in this regions only. The regions that do not faces the moon experiences low tides. It is the gravity of moon that attracts the ocean water towards itself.

Hence, Option D is correct

A ball rolls up a ramp with a velocity of 8.0 m/s. How high up the ramp does it travel?
Flura [38]

The greatest height the ball will attain is 3.27 m

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>
  • Initial velocity (u) = 8 m/s
  • Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (at maximum height)
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Maximum height (h) =?

The maximum height to which the ball can attain can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² – 2gh (since the ball is going against gravity)

0² = 8² – (2 × 9.8 × h)

0 = 64 – 19.6h

Collect like terms

0 – 64 = –19.6h

–64 = –19.6h

Divide both side by –19.6

h = –64 / –19.6h

h = 3.27 m

Thus, the greatest height the ball can attain is 3.27 m

The robot HooRU is lost in space, floating around aimlessly, and radiates heat into the depths of the cosmos at the rate of 13.1
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The temperature is  T  = 168.44 \ K

Explanation:

From the question ewe are told that

   The rate of heat transferred is    P  = 13.1 \ W

     The surface area is  A = 1.55 \ m^2

      The emissivity of its surface is  e = 0.287

Generally, the rate of heat transfer is mathematically represented as

           H  =  A e \sigma  T^{4}

=>         T  =  \sqrt[4]{\frac{P}{e* \sigma } }

where  \sigma is the Boltzmann constant with value  \sigma  = 5.67*10^{-8} \ W\cdot  m^{-2} \cdot  K^{-4}.

substituting value  

             T  =  \sqrt[4]{\frac{13.1}{ 0.287* 5.67 *10^{-8} } }

            T  = 168.44 \ K

A race car drives one lap around a race track that is 500 meters in length.
pychu [463]

Explanation:

Check out the picture I drew for a minute before reading this...

B. Distance [the red line] is a scalar quantity reflecting how far an object has traveled. Displacement [the green line] is a vector quantity reflecting how far an object has moved from a point. The key difference is that distance can be any sort of path while displacement is always a vector (or a straight line) between a starting point and a finishing point. Sometimes distance and displacement are equal to one another. Sometimes you have a distance traveled, but zero displacement overall; which is what's going on in your question.

A. The distance that the racecar traveled is indeed 500m. But at the end of the lap, it is right back where it started. So overall, it has been displaced 0m.
