Give an example of how electrical energy and thermal energy are connected.

1 answer:

3 0

A toaster draws electric current (electrical energy) from a wall outlet and converts these moving electric charges into heat (thermal energy) in the filaments that turn red hot to cook your toast. ... As electricity runs through the filaments in a space heater, the electrical energy is converted into heat (thermal energy).
Hopefully this helped.

What gravitational force does the moon produce

saul85 [17]

Answer:

$1.94\cdot 10^{20} N$

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by the equation:

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

The gravitational force is always attractive.

In this problem, we have:

$m_1 = 5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$m_2 = 7.34\cdot 10^{22} kg$ is the mass of the Moon

$r=3.88\cdot 10^8 m$ is the separation between the Earth and the Moon

Therefore, the gravitational force between them is

$F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(5.98\cdot 10^{24})(7.34\cdot 10^{22})}{(3.88\cdot 10^8)^2}=1.94\cdot 10^{20} N$

How do lone pairs of electrons affect the bond angle differently than electrons shared in a bond?

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Lone pairs cause bond angles to deviate away from the ideal bond angles

Explanation:

Bonded electrons are stabilized and clustered between the bonding electrons meaning they are much closer together. Non-bonding electrons however are not being shared between any atoms which allows them to roam a little further spreading the charge density over a larger space and therefore interfering with what would be an expected bond angle

Visible light includes all of the

krek1111 [17]

Answer:Visible light is a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The spectrum covers everything from gamma rays, x-rays, visible light, infrared, microwave and radio waves. Each part of the spectrum, including the different colors of visible light, have different wavelengths (the space between each wave).

When using the magnification equation, a value greater than 1 as the solution for M indicates that the image ? is larger than th

Nadusha1986 [10]

M= Height of image/height of the object

If, M>1, then height of image>height of object.

And therefore, image is larger than the object.

10. Almost three-quarters of household energy use is due to the following:

Arturiano [62]

Answer: Energy consumption and sustainability is important so that it remain available for future generation.

Explanation:

1. The home furnaces are likely to require fuel like coal, which will directly emit carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide gases. These should be replaced with the electrical furnaces. The old or more power consuming air conditioners should be replaced with new ones.

2. The water heaters should be tankless so their capacity to heat more water could be possible. The water heaters should be electricity saving.

3. Washer and dryers should be water savy and electricity savy. A front-loading washing machine is useful energy saver.

4. The LED lights are more electricity saving than conventional bulbs. Halogen lights are also electricity saving.
