Answer:

A. Some energy is always converted to unusable forms in the

Explanation:

The second law relates to the quality of energy. This law states that whenever energy is transformed, some of must be degraded into a less useful form. In ecosystems, the biggest losses occur as respiration.

A merry-go-round is shaped like a uniform disk and has moment of inertia of 50,000 kg m 2 . It is rotating so that it has an ang
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

r = 20 m

Explanation:

The formula for the angular momentum of a rotating body is given as:

L = mvr

where,

L = Angular Momentum = 10000 kgm²/s

m = mass

v = speed = 2 m/s

r = radius of merry-go-round

Therefore,

10000 kg.m²/s = mr(2 m/s)

m r = (10000 kg.m²/s)/(2 m/s)

m r = 5000 kg.m   ------------- equation 1

Now, the moment of inertia of a solid uniform disc about its axis through its center is given as:

I = (1/2) m r²

where,

I = moment of inertia = 50000 kg.m²

Therefore,

50000 kg.m² = (1/2)(m r)(r)

using equation 1, we get:

50000 kg.m² = (1/2)(5000 kg.m)(r)

(50000 kg.m²)/(2500 kg.m) = r

<u>r = 20 m</u>

A train is moving in a straight railway where it covered one third of the distance with
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

<em>The average speed of the train is 45 km/h</em>

Explanation:

<u>Speed</u>

It's defined as the distance (d) per unit of time (t) traveled by an object. The formula is:

\displaystyle v=\frac{d}{t}

Let's call x the total distance covered by the train. It covered d1=1/3x with a speed of v1=25 km/h. The time taken is calculated solving for t:

\displaystyle t_1=\frac{d_1}{v_1}

\displaystyle t_1=\frac{1/3x}{25}

\displaystyle t_1=\frac{x}{75}

Now the rest of the distance:

d2 = x - 1/3x = 2/3x

Was covered at v2=75 km/h. Thus the time taken is:

\displaystyle t_2=\frac{d_2}{v_2}

\displaystyle t_2=\frac{2/3x}{75}

\displaystyle t_2=\frac{2x}{225}

The total time is:

\displaystyle t_t=\frac{x}{75}+\frac{2x}{225}

\displaystyle t_t=\frac{3x}{225}+\frac{2x}{225}

\displaystyle t_t=\frac{5x}{225}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle t_t=\frac{x}{45}

The average speed is the total distance divided by the total time:

\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{x}{\frac{x}{45}}

Simplifying:

\boxed{\displaystyle \bar v=45\ km/h}

The average speed of the train is 45 km/h

The best way to study young stars hidden behind interstellar dust clouds would be to use
Ainat [17]

Answer: Infrared light

Explanation:

Infrared light is an electromagnetic radiation which has longer wavelength than visible light.

cool and faint objects are difficult to be detected using visible light.

Infrared light can pass through dust and clouds of gases. Thus, it is the best way to study the young stars hidden behind interstellar dust clouds.
