Answer:
First Quarter and Third Quarter.
Explanation:
Tides are formed as a consequence of the differentiation of gravity due to the Moon across to the Earth sphere.
Since gravity variates with the distance:
(1)
Where m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects that are interacting and r is the distance between them.
For example, seeing the image below, point A is closer to the Moon than point b, and at the same time the center of mass of the Earth will feel more attracted to the Moon than point B. Therefore, that creates a tidal bulge in point A and point B.
When the Sun and the Moon are alight with respect to the Earth, then the Sun tidal force contributes to the tidal force of the Moon over the Earth. That makes the high tides even higher (spring tides).
However, when the Sun is not in the same line than the Moon (the Moon is at 90° with respect to the Sun), then the low tides are higher and the high tides are lower. That scenario is known as neap tides.
Therefore, that happens when the Moon is at First Quarter and Third Quarter.
Answer:
option B
Explanation:
given,
diameter of the rotating space = 2 Km
Force exerted at the edge of the space = 1 g
force experienced at the half way = ?
As the object is rotating in the circular part
Force is equal to centripetal acceleration.
at the edge
g = ω² r
ω is the angular velocity of the particle
r is the radius.
now, acceleration at the half way
g' = ω² r'
People at the halfway experience g/2
hence, the correct answer is option B
<h2>Answer: Gravitational attraction
</h2>
Gravity force causes the clouds of dust and gas to form a protostar. As this <u>attraction force</u> is responsible for gathering and compressing the existing elements in the cloud of gas and dust, heating them during this process.
Then, when the amount of material accumulated by gravitational contraction is large enough, and the temperature and pressure reached high enough, the <u>nuclear fusion</u> process will begin.
To understand it better: The hydrogen nuclei will begin to fuse, generating helium nuclei in the process and releasing huge amounts of energy.
It should be noted that the protostars radiate half of the energy contributed by the gravitational collapse and the other half is invested in heating its core.
Answer: This is the orbit (of the moon around Earth).
An orbit is a circular/oval path that planets, moons, comets, etc follow with a "subject" in the middle. In this case, the circle is the orbit of the moon around Earth.
Answer:
Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. Since the force required to lift it is equal to its weight, it follows that the gravitational potential energy is equal to its weight times the height to which it is lifted.
