The energy of a substance is defined as the capacity to do work.The energy may be possessed by the body in various forms.It may be kinetic,potential,magnetic.electric etc.

a- The energy can be transformed from one form to another form.It is called energy conversion.

c-The power defined as the consumption of energy per unit time.

$Mathematically\ power\ P=\frac{E}t} =\frac{W}{t}$

Here E is the energy and W is the work done,t is the time.

d-The S.I unit of energy is Joule[J].

Hence the correct answer to the question is b. the ability to do work

A man walks along a straight path at a speed of 4 ft/s. A searchlight is located on the ground 6 ft from the path and is kept fo

BARSIC [14]

We are given that,

$\frac{dx}{dt} = 4ft/s$

We need to find $\frac{d\theta}{dt}$ when $x=8ft$

The equation that relates x and $\theta$ can be written as,

$\frac{x}{6} tan\theta$

$x = 6tan\theta$

Differentiating each side with respect to t, we get,

$\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{dx}{d\theta} \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt}$

$\frac{dx}{dt} = (6sec^2\theta)\cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt}$

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{6sec^2\theta} \cdot \frac{dx}{dt}$

Replacing the value of the velocity

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{6} cos^2\theta (4)^2$

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{8}{3} cos^2\theta$

The value of $cos \theta$ could be found if we know the length of the beam. With this value the equation can be approximated to the relationship between the sides of the triangle that is being formed in order to obtain the numerical value. If this relation is known for the value of x = 6ft, the mathematical relation is obtained. I will add a numerical example (although the answer would end in the previous point) If the length of the beam was 10, then we would have to

$cos\theta = \frac{6}{10}$

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{8}{3} (\frac{6}{10})^2$

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{24}{25}$

Search light is rotating at a rate of 0.96rad/s

Answer:

7) there is a theory that these animals can see the magnetic field of the Earth due to a compass like mechanism inside their eyes in order to navigate.

8) Earth's magnetic field is a result of the currents found inside the outer core that consist of electricity.
