-- The potential energy of a 12-lb bowling ball up on the shelf
doesn't have anything to do with the temperature of the ball or
the shelf.
-- The potential energy of a jar full of gas does depend on the
temperature of the gas. The warmer it is, the greater its pressure
is, and the more work it can do if you let it out through a little hole
in the jar. If it gets hot enough, it'll have enough potential energy
to blow the jar to smithereens.
Answer:
a) 1.25e15 kg
b) 4.17e20 J
c) 44.55 years
Explanation:
To find the volume you need to multiply 218 km * 25 km * 250 m (be careful with units), so the volume is 1.3625e12 m^3, if you multiply this value by the density you will obtain the mass, that is 1.25e15 kg.
To find the energy needed to melt the ice, you use the latent heat, in this case, it is 3.34e5 J/kg. Now you multiply this value by the mass, so you need 4.17e20 J to melt the iceberg.
The surface area of the iceberg is 545e7 m^2, so the ice absorbs 594e9 W, one W is one J/s, so in 12 hours the iceberg absorbs 2.56e16 J, so in 365 days absorbs 9.36e18 J. Now you just divide 4.17e20 J by the amount f energy per year, and obtain 44.55 years.
A)
The moon orbiting the Earth
Answer:
Though the process photosynthesis
Explanation:
One of the important ways by which the atmosphere recycle gases through interactions with the the biosphere is by photosynthesis.
The biosphere is the living component on the earth. The atmosphere is the gaseous envelope round the earth.
- Photosynthesis is the process whereby green plants manufacture their food using carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen gas.
- This way, atmospheric carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen gas.
This way, there is a sustained interaction between the atmosphere and biosphere.
