Answer: The correct option is option E (the Sun is seen blocking different constellations in the course of a year.
Explanation:
The earth, which is one of the planets of the solar system that supports life, is shperical in shape. The spherical ( round) shape of the earth is marked by the intervening highlands and oceans on its surface.
Evidence to show that the earth is shperical are:
--> The Lunar eclipse: During an eclipse of the Moon, the shadow of the Earth is always seen to be round.
--> Ships Visibility: When ships travel a large distance away, we see their hulls disappear first and their masts disappear last.
-->Altitude of Polaris (North Star): The height of the North Star changes as we travel to different latitudes. That is ,increases as you move toward the North pole, or decreases as you move toward the equator.
--> Aerial photographs: Photographs of the Earth from space always show a round body.
The statement that doesn't prove that the earth is spherical in shape is (the Sun is seen blocking different constellations in the course of a year). The sun is seen in front of stars blocking different constellation in a year because the earth orbits round the sun in a year and not that it is shperical in shape.
Answer:
C. Each capacitor carries the same amount of charge.
Explanation:
When two or more different capacitors are connected in series across a potential source, each capacitor carries the same amount of charge.
In a series connected capacitor, sane amount of charge flows through the capacitors while different potential difference is passed across them.
The capacitors have the same charge as the charge flowing out directly from the potential source called emf since the emf is the driving force of charge in a circuit.
Answer:
μ = 0.309
Explanation:
coefficient of kinetic friction is defined as the ratio of two forces, friction force and the normal force acting on the object.
θ = arctan(15/100)= 8.531⁰
In the vertical direction:
N = mgcosθ = 100 *9.8 *cos(8.531) = 970N
law of conservation of energy implies
mgsinθ - μNx = 1/2m(v₂²-v₁²)
100*9.8*sin (8.531) - μ(970*2) = 1/2(100)(0²-3²)
150.6 - 1940μ = 450
- 1940μ = -600.6
μ = 0.309
Answer:
Energy is defined as the ability to do work. Forms of energy could be kinetic energy or potential energy. Thermal or heat energy can originate from a hot object such as the sun. Energy is used to produce work. Electrical energy for lighting purposes and heating in homes and factories.
Explanation:
Energy is defined as the ability to do work and can be in various forms such as kinetic energy, potential energy, thermal, chemical, electrical energy etc.
Energy origination depends on the type of energy form in discussion. Thermal or heat energy can originate from a hot object such as the sun or an iron box, chemical energy originates from the interaction of atoms and molecules and electrical energy can be initiated by movements of electrons.
Energy is used to produce work. Different forms of energy can do different tasks such as;
Heat energy for heating water
Electrical energy for lighting purposes
Geothermal energy for producing heat and electricity
Nuclear energy for production of nuclear power
Chemical energy for facilitating chemical reactions
