Which Moon position in the lunar cycle would provide the largest difference in ocean tides?

The greatest difference between high and low tide is around New Moon and Full Moon. During these Moon phases, the solar tide coincides with the lunar tide because the Sun and the Moon are aligned with Earth, and their gravitational forces combine to pull the ocean's water in the same direction.

Your answer is B Full moon

Which is not a source of electrical energy in the United States

xenn [34]

Every practical source of energy that you can imagine, as well as a few impractical ones, are used somewhere in the USA.

From whale oil in Alaska, to nuclear energy, to coal, petroleum, natural gas, solar energy, wind energy, and biomass.

Oh ! Geothermal energy and tidal energy aren't too popular, but I'll bet if you looked, you'd find these used too, SOMEwhere in the 50 states.

Extreme-sports enthusiasts have been known to jump off the top of El Capitan, a sheer granite cliff of height 910 m in Yosemite

german

Answer:

The jumper is in freefall for 12.447 seconds.

Explanation:

Let's start by calculating how far the jumper falls.

Initial height (on cliff) = 910 m

Final height after freefall = 150 m

Distance the jumper falls in freefall = 910 - 150 = 760 m

We can now use the equation of motion below to solve for the time:

$s=u*t+\frac{1}{2} (a*t^2)$

here. acceleration = 9.81 m/s (due to gravity)

initial speed (u) = 0 m/s (because vertical speed is 0 at the start)

and distance (s) = 760 meters (as calculated above)

So for speed we get:

$760=0*t+0.5(9.81*t^2)$

$760=4.905t^2$

t = 12.447 seconds
