Answer:
a) According to Newton's law of gravitation, as the distance between the Moon and the Earth decreases, the gravitational attraction increases and vice versa
The gravitational force of the Moon on the Earth causes the Earth to be slightly bulged on the side directly facing the Moon
The gravitational force also pulls the water bodies on the Earth's surface towards the Moon in the same manner and the effect is more pronounced due to the ability of the liquid water to assume a shape based on the magnitude of the gravitational field attracting it
Therefore, the region where the Moon is closest to the Earth we have a high tide as the water level rises and the region which is perpendicular to where the Moon is located has a low tide
b) The two special types of tides are
1) The neap tide
2) The spring tide
Neap tide
Neap tide occurs when the Sun and Moon are 90° apart from each other when they are viewed by an observer from Earth
The gravitational pull of the Sun cancels (partially) the effect of the gravitational pull and tidal force of the Moon, resulting in minimum tidal range
Spring Tide
Spring tide occurs when the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun are simultaneously inline, such that the Sun reinforces the gravitational pull and tidal force of the Moon, resulting in a maximum tidal range
Explanation:
Answer:
.
Explanation:
The average kinetic energy per molecule of a ideal gas is given by:
Now, we know that 
Before the absorption we have:
(1)
After the absorption,
(2)
If we want the ratio of v2/v1, let's divide the equation (2) by the equation (1)
Therefore the ratio will be
I hope it helps you!
Answer:
C.) To indicate different versions of the same variable.
Explanation:
Variables in physics often include a subscript. These subscripts are used for indicating different versions of the same variable in physics.
Basically, subscripts are used to represent the beginning (initial) and ending (final) position or point of a variable in physics.
For example, we would look at Gay Lussac' Law of gases.
Gay Lussac law states that when the volume of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.
Mathematically, Gay Lussac's law is given by;
Where;
represents the initial temperature.
represents the initial temperature.
represents the initial pressure.
represents the initial pressure.
Note: 1 and 2 are the subscript while T and P are the variables.
Answer:
(I) meteorite is usually covered with a dark crust from burning in Earth's atmosphere.
(II) A meteorite usually has a high metal content.
(III) Meteorites when compared to terrestrial rocks have different isotope ratios of particular elements.
(IV) Meteorites contain rare elements, such as iridium, that terrestrial rocks do not contain.
