200 J of energy is wasted by the hair dryer.

Steps

  • The hairdryer is provided with 1500 J of electrical energy per second
  • Of this 1500 J, 1300 J of energy is actually used and converted to useful thermal energy per second
  • The remaining energy, 1500 - 1300 = 200 J is dissipated

Dissipated energy

  • The energy that is not efficiently transported or changed is wasted energy.
  • We cannot create or destroy energy.
  • An employable type of energy is created through transformation.
  • Only a portion of energy that is changed or transferred can be done so in a way that is helpful.

Thus, 200 J of energy is wasted by the hair dryer.

Okay. About 71% of the Earth's surface is water. And salt water holds about 96.5% of all the Earth's water. The remaining 3% of freshwater is found in Glaciers and ice caps making it difficult to use because it is frozen. Other places freshwater can be found is: Lakes, swamps, rivers and the atmosphere. I hope this helps!

What is the best description of what viruses are made of?
Mazyrski [523]

The answer is C.

A virus is made up of or consists of a nucleic acid in varying quantity which may either be RNA or DNA.

The nucleic acid is surrounded by a protein shell called a capsid. The word capsid comes from the Latin word  capsa which means box.The capsid and the nucleic acid within it are together referred to as nucleoprotein.The  capsid is made up of small sub units called capsomeres.

In many viruses, the nucleoprotein makes up the whole virus. More complex viruses have one or more further enclosing structures also made mostly of protein. These structures are referred to as envelopes and each envelop is specific to a particular virus.

Darwin observed fossils of huge animals such as glyptodon why were these fossils of interest to him
Finger [1]
I believe its is because the fossils of these animals looked like living species and they had a connection to the modern. A fossil is any preserved evidence of life from a past geological age, such as the impressions and remains of organisms embedded in stratified rocks. Fossils are created when organisms die, are in cased in dirt and rock, and are slowly replaced by minerals over time.
