The Moon is responsible for what % of the tides that we experience?

1 answer:

7 0

Answer: High tides and low tides are caused by the Moon. The Moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the Moon and the side farthest from the Moon. These bulges of water are high tides.

Answer:

The red car would experience the greatest acceleration.

Explanation:

Newton says that Force equals mass times acceleration or F = ma

We get a = F/m

If we want the greatest acceleration or a, mass or m must be the lowest.

What are some of the useful properties of current electricity?

Elena-2011 [213]

By definition we have to:

The electric current is the flow of electric charge due to the movement (usually of electrons) that a material travels.

Some properties are:

1) Electric conduction: The conductive materials have a large amount of free electrons, therefore, the passage of electricity is possible.

2) The current inside a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit. This is what is known as ohm's law:

$I =\frac{V}{R}$

3) The current can be continuous or alternate.

Alternating current is the electric current in which the magnitude and direction vary cyclically.

The direct current is the flow of electric charges that does not change direction with time.

Larger animals use proportionately less energy than smaller animals; that is, it takes less energy per kg to power an elephant t

marin [14]

Answer:

Part a)

$Q = 952 cal/day$

Part b)

$P = 46 Watt$

Part c)

$\Delta P = 54 W$

Explanation:

As we know that 5000 kg African elephant requires 70,000 Cal for basic needs per day

so we will have

$m = 5000 kg$

$Q = 70,000 Cal$

so we have energy required per kg

$E = \frac{70,000}{5000}$

$E = 14 cal/kg$

Part a)

now we know that per kg the energy required will be same

so we have mass of the human is 68 kg

so energy required per day is given as

$Q = 68 \times 14$

$Q = 952 cal/day$

Part b)

Resting power is the rate of energy in Joule required per sec

so it is given as

$P = \frac{952 \times 4186}{24\times 3600}$

$P = 46 Watt$

Part c)

resting power given in the book is

$P' = 100 W$

so this is less than the power given

$\Delta P = 100 - 46$

$\Delta P = 54 W$

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 72.0 units. If the charge of object 1 is doubled AND the charge

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

432 units

Explanation:

Let the charges be q and Q separated by a distance r. The electrostatic force , F = kqQ/r² = 72 units. If q = 2q and Q = 3Q, then the new electrostatic force is

F = k × 2q × 3Q/r² = 6kqQ/r² = 6 × 72 = 432 units
