Answer: The farther away the moon is from earth the lower the tides would be.

Explanation: Because of the moons close proximity to Earth its gravity pulls up on water which causes the high and low tides, therefore if the moon is farther away its effect would be lessened.

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton's law of gravity says that the attractive gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of distance between two objects.

Earth tidal force is due to gravity pull from the Moon. That is why tides follow a monthly cycle according to the position of the Moon. If the Moon was farther away from Earth, tidal waves will be reduced.

From goal line to goal line, a football field is 300 ft long. If a player catches the ball while standing on one goal line, runs

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

The player ran 91.44m.

Explanation:

The problem gives you the total distance between goal line to goal line in feet, and the answer must be given in meters, so you should convert the distance the player run from ft to m, because the player run the same distance from goal line to goal line to scores the touchdown.

So, you should apply the following conversion factor:

$300ft*\frac{0.3048m}{1ft}= 91.44m$
