2.3 grams of wood has the same energy as 1g of oil.

The majority of wood and wood waste used as fuel in the United States is used by industry. Manufacturers of paper and wood products are the biggest industrial users. They produce steam and electricity from waste from paper and lumber mills, which saves money by lowering the number of other fuels and electricity they need to buy to run their facilities.

There are numerous power plants that primarily burn wood to produce electricity in the electric power sector, and some coal-burning power plants burn wood chips along with coal to cut down on sulfur dioxide emissions. The primary purpose of wood consumption in the business sector is heating.

masha68 [24]

1). both

2). Venus

3). Venus catastrophically; Earth too but much less.

4). Earth

5). Earth

6). Venus (It would be pretty hard for US to mistake Earth for a star.)

How much kinetic energy the truck still has

seropon [69]

Answer:

47.5kJ

Explanation:

Before climbing the cliff

$E_t = E_k$

$E_k=\frac{1}{2} mv^2\\E_k=\frac{1}{2} 500*15^2\\\\E_k = 56250J\\$

At 2.

$E_t = E_k+E_p$

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of angular momentum. This can be expressed mathematically as a function of inertia and angular velocity, that is:

$L = I\omega$

Where,

I = Moment of Inertia

$\omega$ = Angular Velocity

For the given object the moment of inertia is equivalent to

$I = \frac{mr^2}{12}$

Considering that the moment of inertia varies according to distance, and that there are two of these without altering the mass we will finally have to

$L_i = L_f$
