A).  The apple has thermal energy, because its temperature is higher
than absolute zero.
It also has chemical energy, because if I eat it, I get a burst of energy
and I become ambitious for a while.
It also has gravitational potential energy, because if I drop it on my foot,
it could bruise one of my piggies.

b).  I could increase its potential energy by lifting it higher, like over my head.

c).  As long as I'm just holding the apple, it doesn't have any kinetic energy. 
I could give it some kinetic energy by throwing it.
Or I could just drop it, and let gravity give it kinetic energy.

Oil explorers set off explosives to make loud sounds, then listen for the echoes from underground oil deposits. Geologists suspe
Elenna [48]

Answer:

dg= 942m

Explanation:

given the depth of the granite Us dg = 500m

time between the explosion t = 0.99s

the speed of sound in granite is Vg = 6000m/s

First of all calculate the time it takes the sound waves to travel down through the lake

Vw = dw/t1

t1 = dw/Vw

t1 = 500/1480

t1 = 0.338s.

Let dg be the depth of the granite basin, so the time it takes for the sound to travel down through the granite is t2 = dg/6000m/s......equation(1)

So the total time it takes to travel down to the oil surface will be

t1/2 = t1 + t2

t1/2=  0.338 + dg/6000.

since the reflection on the oil does not change the speed of sound, the sound will take travelling upto the surface the same time it takes to reach the oil

so; t = 2 t1/2

t1/2 = t/2 = 0.99s/2 = 0.495

Now insert into the values of t1/2 into the equation (1) and solve for dg;

we get 0.495 = 0.338 + dg/6000

dg = (0.495 - 0.338) x 6000

dg = 942m.

How do most fossils form? Be sure to explain your<br> answer<br> I<br> Intro
Dimas [21]

<em><u>Here your answer</u></em>

Fossils are formed in a number of different ways, but most are formed when a plant or animal dies in a watery environment and is buried in mud and silt. Soft tissues quickly decompose leaving the hard bones or shells behind. Over time sediment builds over the top and hardens into rock.

<em><u>hope it helps ☺️✌️</u></em>

Would the solar panel work under a fluorescent or halogen light? explain your response being sure to relate your observations to
lina2011 [118]

A solar panel are most efficient under natural sunlight, however, a solar panel can work using artificial light simply because a solar panel collects photons which collide with silicon atoms transferring their energy which cause them to lose electrons.

A jet aircraft with a mass of 4,475 kg has an engine that exerts a force (thrust) equal to 60,800 N. (a) What is the jet's accel
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

a) 13.59 m/s²

b) 67.95 m/s

c) 169.875 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

m = Mass

Force

F=ma\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{F}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{60800}{4475}\\\Rightarrow a=13.59\ m/s^2

Acceleration of the jet is 13.59 m/s²

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+13.59\times 5\\\Rightarrow v=67.95\ m/s

Velocity attained at 5 seconds is 67.95 m/s

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{67.95^2-0^2}{2\times 13.59}\\\Rightarrow s=169.875\ m

Distance traveled in the 5 seconds is 169.875 m
