The answer would be A) Photovoltaic cell.

Reason: 
B) turbine, would convert either air or water into electricity through mechanical energy.

C) battery, would just store chemical energy that later is released in whatever you put it in.

D)Copper Tubing, does not make sense. It channels energy but doesn't generate or store it in any way.

***Photovoltaic comes from the Greek word <em>photo-</em> meaning light. This alone should be a good hint.

A wave of amplitude 20mm has intensity Ix. Another wave of the same frequency but of amplitude 5mm has an intensity Iy.
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

(C) 16

Explanation:

Given:

The amplitude of first wave (s₁) = 20 mm

The amplitude of second wave (s₂) = 5 mm

Intensity of first wave = Iₓ

Intensity of second wave = I_y

The intensity associated with a wave depends on the amplitude of the wave.

The intensity (I) is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude (s) of the wave and is expressed as:

I=ks^2\\Where\ k\to constant\ of\ proportionality

Now, the intensities of the two waves are given as:

I_x=ks_1^2=k(20)^2\\\\I_y=ks_2^2=k(5)^2

Dividing both the intensities, we get:

\frac{I_x}{I_y}=\frac{k(20)^2}{k(5)^2}\\\\\frac{I_x}{I_y}=\frac{400}{25}\\\\\frac{I_x}{I_y}=16

Therefore, the option (C) is correct.

1. How is electric potential energy similar to gravitational potential energy? How is it different? Where will an electron bound
Korolek [52]
Both ve similar equations 
<span>both are energies of one object w.r.t another </span>
<span>differences- electric pe is due to electrostatic force and gravitational pe is due to gravitational force </span>
<span>electric pe is > than gravitational pe since electrostatic force> gravitational force </span>

Half Time At 3:00 the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock point in directions that are 90.0
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

3 : 08 : 10.9

Explanation:

assuming a 12 hour clock

angular velocity of the hour hand is 2π/(3600(12)) rad/s

angular velocity of the minute hand is 2π/3600 rad/s

difference is 2π/3600 - 2π/(3600(12)) = 11(2π/(3600(12)) rad/s

45° = π/4 radians

This angle is covered in a time of

π/4 rad / 22π / (3600(12)) = 900(12) / 22 = 490.909090... s

or about 8 minutes 10.9 s
