The US government wants to allocate billions of dollars in the next 10 years to help assure our future energy security. The fund

s will be spread among a variety of possible energy resources. Where do you think the government should put the greatest support: solar energy, wind energy, clean coal, oil exploration, gas exploration, or a combination of sources? Are there other efforts that should be explored? Support your position with cited information for both questions.

This question is a very good one indeed! I am very happy you asked it. I would first like to say that, although energy is important, our planet is more so. That is why I feel like we should always try to explore ideas that are both useful to the human race but also useful in protecting our environment because what is the use in having energy if we will not be able to use it. That is why I feel that we should try at types of energy like solar and wind. The problem is finding ways that are less expensive and more efficient. For example, creating a wind energy system that creates a sizeable about of energy and also is not too expensive and hard to make like the wind turbines of nowadays. Also what comes into question is the effect of these ideas and I feel that although some of these may have harmful effects, they must be used. One thing though is that I do not agree in expanding on our oil and gas exploration because it has so many bad effects to our environment that it is hardly worth it. If we can find alternatives in these other sources, like many states in the USA are trying to do, then we will be able to move much faster in technology and also help protect our lovely planet.

suppose the ball has the smallest possible frequency that allows it to go all the way around the circle. what tension in the str
tatyana61 [14]

The complete question is missing, so i have attached the complete question.

Answer:

A) FBD is attached.

B) The condition that must be satisfied is for ω_min = √(g/r)

C) The tension in the string would be zero. This is because at the smallest frequency, the only radially inward force at that point is the weight(force of gravity).

Explanation:

A) I've attached the image of the free body diagram.

B) The formula for the net force is given as;

F_net = mv²/r

We know that angular velocity;ω = v/r

Thus;

F_net = mω²r

Now, the minimum downward force is the weight and so;

mg = m(ω_min)²r

m will cancel out to give;

g = (ω_min)²r

(ω_min)² = g/r

ω_min = √(g/r)

The condition that must be satisfied is for ω_min = √(g/r)

C) The tension in the string would be zero. This is because at the smallest frequency, the only radially inward force at that point is the weight(force of gravity).

What quantity is multiplied by the hydraulic lift system of a dump truck?
kogti [31]

funny, actually, i'm a hydraulic, and pneumatic cylinder, pump, and line system mechanic, and the answer is pressure.... pressure builds up from the hydraulic pump, and then transfers through hoses to extend, and contract the cylinders by filling them with hydraulic fluid, and vice versa for contracting them.

hope this helps!

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST PLEASE HELP AND SHOW ALL WORK

Answer:

Same reading.

Explanation:

Assume that after the string breaks the ball falls through the liquid with constant speed. If the mass of the bucket and the liquid is 1.20 kg, and the mass of the ball is 0.150 kg,

A.) Before the string break, the total weight = weight of the can + weight of the water.

According to Archimedes' Principle which state that: “A body immersed in a liquid loses weight by an amount equal to the weight of the liquid displaced.” Archimedes principle also states that: “When a body is immersed in a liquid, an upward thrust, equal to the weight of the liquid displaced, acts on it

B.) After the string break.

The scale will have the same reading as before the string break.

If your vehicle has a steering wheel lock, should you ever turn off the ignition while it is moving?
umka2103 [35]

It is not advisable to turn off the ignition while it is moving, so it is a no. Why? Even though the vehicle has steering wheel lock, turning off the ignition while it is moving is not advisable because it causes the vehicle to lose out of control, leading to complications and accidents.
