Explain why dogs pant during hot summer days using the concept of evaporation?

Because dogs have their bodies covered with fur, sweating is less effective. Dogs have sweat glads in places where there is little fur. However this is not enough in some hot days. To keep the body temperature in order dogs have to rely on panting. The interior of mouth and lungs is wet, so breathing quickly speeds up cooling. It acts similarly to wind blowing on sweaty person's skin.

You can try it on your own. When you breathe heavily you will feel coolness :)

In order to evaporate (change state from liquid to gas) heat energy has to be delivered to water. The heat energy is taken from the body of dog, thus cooling it.

In order to place a satellite into orbit, it requires enough fuel to supply the necessary mechanical energy. Into what types of

nexus9112 [7]

When a satellite is revolving into the orbit around a planet then we can say

net centripetal force on the satellite is due to gravitational attraction force of the planet, so we will have

$F_g = F_c$

$\frac{GM_pM_s}{r^2} = \frac{M_s v^2}{r}$

now we can say that kinetic energy of satellite is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}M_s v^2$

$KE = \frac{GM_sM_p}{2r}$

also we know that since satellite is in gravitational field of the planet so here it must have some gravitational potential energy in it

so we will have

$U = -\frac{GM_sM_p}{r}$

so we can say that energy from the fuel is converted into kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy of the satellite

Help with this question plz and show how you got it :) tysm!

The hardest part of the job is to find the right formula to use, and write it down. You've already done that ! The rest is just turning the crank until an answer falls out.

You wrote. E = m g h.
Beautiful.
Now divide each side by (g h), and you'll have the formula for mass:

m = E / (g h).

You know all the numbers on the right side. Just pluggum in, do the arithmetic, and you'll have the mass.

Make a general statement about what happens to light as it enters a different medium.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Refraction is an effect that occurs when a light wave, incident at an angle away from the normal, passes a boundary from one medium into another in which there is a change in velocity of the light. The wavelength decreases as the light enters the medium and the light wave changes direction.
