Explain why the same side of the moon is always facing Earth.

Physics
1 answer:
Ad libitum [116K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The moon keeps the same face pointing towards the Earth because its rate of spin is tidally locked so that it is synchronized with its rate of revolution (the time needed to complete one orbit). In other words, the moon rotates exactly once every time it circles the Earth.

A baseball pitcher throws a ball at 97.0 mi/h in the horizontal direction. How far does the ball fall vertically by the time it
mario62 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 mile=5280 ft

1 hour=3600 seconds

Changing speed from mi/h to ft/s

97 mi/h \times \frac {5280}{3600}=142.2666667 ft/s\approx 142.27 ft/s

Time of flight, t=\frac {distance}{speed}=\frac {60.5}{142.27}=0.425257732 s\approx 0.425 s

From fundamental kinematics equations

h=0.5gt^{2} where g is acceleration due to gravity whose value is taken as 32.2 ft/s2 and h is the distance

By substitution

h=0.5\times 32.2\times 0.425^{2}=2.9080625 m\approx 2.91 m
