There is more role of the moon than the sun to occur tides in oceans?why?

Physics
1 answer:
Leya [2.2K]3 years ago
6 0
The ocean tides on earth are caused by both the moon's gravity and the sun's gravity. ... Even though the sun is much more massive and therefore has stronger overall gravity than the moon, the moon is closer to the earth so that its gravitational gradient is stronger than that of the sun.

A. What is the RMS speed of Helium atoms when the temperature of the Helium gas is 343.0 K? (Possibly useful constants: the atom
kkurt [141]

Answer:

(a) 1462.38 m/s

(b) 2068.13 m/s

Explanation:

(a)

The Kinetic energy of the atom can be given as:

K.E = (3/2)KT

where,

K = Boltzman's Constant = 1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/k

K.E = Kinetic Energy of atoms = 343 K

T = absolute temperature of atoms

The K.E is also given as:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

Comparing both equations:

(1/2)mv² = (3/2)KT

v² = 3KT/m

v = √[3KT/m]

where,

m = mass of Helium = (4 A.M.U)(1.66 X 10⁻²⁷ kg/ A.M.U) = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

v = RMS Speed of Helium Atoms = ?

Therefore,

v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(343 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]

<u>v = 1462.38 m/s</u>

(b)

For double temperature:

T = 2 x 343 K = 686 K

all other data remains same:

v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(686 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]

<u>v = 2068.13 m/s</u>

The horizontal bar rises at a constant rate of three hundred mm/s causing peg P to ride in the quarter circular slot. When coord
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Horizontal bar rises with 300 mm/s

Let us take the horizontal component of P be

P_x=rcos\theta

P_y=rsin\theta

where \thetais angle made by horizontal bar with x axis

Velocity at y=150 mm

150=300sin\theta

thus \theta =30^{\circ}

position ofP_x=rcos\theta =300\cdot cos30=300\times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

P_x=259.80 mm

P=259.80\hat{i}+150\hat{j}

Velocity at this instant

u_x=-rsin\theta =300\times sin30=-150 mm/s

u_y=rcos\theta =300\times cos30=259.80 mm/s

Infrared radiation from young stars can pass through the heavy dust clouds surrounding them, allowing astronomers here on Earth
liberstina [14]

Answer:

λ = 1.86 x 10⁻⁴ m = 186 μm

Explanation:

The relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of a wave is given by the following equation:

c = f\lambda\\\\\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

where,

λ = wavelength of infrared radiation = ?

c = speed of infrared radiation = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency of infrared radiation = 1.61 THz = 1.61 x 10¹² Hz

Therefore,

\lambda = \frac{3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s}{1.61\ x\ 10^{12}\ Hz}

<u>λ = 1.86 x 10⁻⁴ m = 186 μm</u>
