If <em>the isotherms</em> are spaced closely together over some portion of the map, there is a drastic temperature change over that portion.
Not that simple but there are ways. Just make sure your hands can handle it
It is C because less than one percent of water is fresh water
Gases have heavier molecules. Since all gases have the same average kinetic energy at the same temperature, lighter molecules move faster and heavier molecules move slower on average.
efficiency = (useful energy transferred ÷ energy supplied) × 100
It's easy to use this formula, but we have to know both the useful energy and the energy supplied. The drawing doesn't tell us the useful energy, so we have to find a clever way to figure it out. I see two ways to do it:
<u>Way #1:</u>
We all know about the law of conservation of energy. So we know that the total energy coming out must be 250J, because that's how much energy is going in. The wasted energy is 75J, so the rest of the 250J must be the useful energy . . . (250J - 75J) = 175J useful energy.
(useful energy) / (energy supplied) = (175J) / (250J) = <em>70% efficiency</em>
================================
<u>Way #2: </u>
How much of the energy is wasted ? . . . 75J wasted
What percentage of the Input is that 75J ? . . . 75/250 = 30% wasted
30% of the input energy is wasted. That leaves the other <em>70%</em> to be useful energy.
