On what single energy source do most energy alternatives depend, either directly or indirectly?

Physics
1 answer:
babymother [125]3 years ago

Directly most of alternative energy is gained from water. But eventually almost all energy on earth comes from sun. Without sun we wouldn't have rivers (no rains), we wouldn't have wind (let alone oil or coal) etc. We would only have geothermal and seismic power. 

Direct sun radiation conversion (via collectors or photovoltaic) is not very popular yet. But indirectly sun is the main source of earths energy.

Amy has a mass of 30 kg, and she is riding a skateboard traveling 5 m/s. What is her momentum
soldi70 [24.7K]
We Know, P = m*v
Here, m = 30 Kg
v = 5 m/s

Substitute it into the expression, 
P = 30*5 Kgm/s
P = 150 Kgm/s

So, your final answer is 150 Kg.m/s

Hope this helps!

A 920-kg compact car moving at 92 m/s has approximately 3,893,440 Joules of kinetic energy. What is the change in kinetic energy
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Change in kinetic energy = 3297280 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 920 kg

Speed of a car, v = 92 m/s

Kinetic energy, K = 3,893,440 J

If the speed of a car, V = 36 m/s

Net kinetic energy is given by :

K_n=\dfrac{1}{2}mV^2\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 920\times (36)^2\\\\K_n=596160\ J

The change in kinetic energy = 3,893,440 - 596160

= 3297280 J

So, the change in kinetic energy of the car is 3297280 J.

Contact [7]

Answer:

I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.

Explanation:

Since time dilates in moving objects, we use the formula t = t₀/√(1 - β²) where t = time in space vehicle, t₀ = time on earth = 9 hours and β = v/c where v = speed of space vehicle = 0.8c.

So, t = t₀/√(1 - β²)

t = 9/√(1 - (v/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8c/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.64)

= 9/√0.36

= 9/0.6

= 15 hr

So, according to a timer on the space vehicle, I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.

In the park, there are 25 pigeons, 15 squirrels, 5 rabbits, and 5 stray cats. Why
Debora [2.8K]

Answer: Line graph should be used to show how one variable changes over time not to show multiple categories or variables are at one specific point in time.

Explanation:

In maths, statistics, and related fields, graphs are used to visually display variables and their values. In the case of line graphs, these are mainly used to display evolution or change of a variable over time. For example, a line graph can show how the number of divorces changed from 1920 to 2010.

In this context, the number of different animals in the park cannot be represented through a line graph because this situation does not imply a variable changing over time. Moreover, this situation includes multiple variables or categories of animals and the data shows only one specific point in time, which can be better represented through a bar graph.
