Answer:

Neap tide, which also occour twice a month. It happens when sun and moon are right angle to each other.

Explanation:

In both cases, the gravitational pull of the sun is “added”to the gravational pull of the moon on the Earth.

givi [52]

Answer:

Acceleration due to gravity, $a=4.61\times 10^{-14}\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Pluto, $m=1.4\times 10^{22}\ kg$

Distance between Neptune and Pluto, $r=4.5\times 10^{12}\ m$

The force of gravity is balanced by the gravitational force between Neptune and Pluto. It is given by :

$a=\dfrac{Gm}{r^2}$

$a=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.4\times 10^{22}}{(4.5\times 10^{12})^2}$

$a=4.61\times 10^{-14}\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration due to gravity at Neptune due to Pluto is $4.61\times 10^{-14}\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

An airplane flies 20km in a direction 60 degrees north of east, then 30 km straight east, then 10km straight north. How far and

Fed [463]

Answer:

48.4 km, 34.3° north of east

Explanation:

Let's say east is the +x direction and north is the +y direction.

Adding up the x components of the vectors:

x = 20 cos 60 + 30 + 0

x = 40 km

Adding up the y components of the vectors:

y = 20 sin 60 + 0 + 10

y = 27.3 km

The magnitude of the displacement is:

d = √(x² + y²)

d = 48.4 km

The direction is:

θ = atan(y/x)

θ = 34.3° north of east
