Harnessing the sun's energy to produce heat or electricity is : A. Non - Polluting

This energy generating method will cause no dangerous emission for environment (unlike the one that came from fossil fuel), but the energy that produced from the sun tend to be more expensive so it's still not widely used

hope this helps

You are traveling on an interstate highway at the posted speed limit of 70 mph when you see that the traffic in front of you has
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:8.75 s,

136.89 m

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity=70 mph\approx 31.29 m/s

velocity after 5 s is 30 mph\approx 13.41 m/s

Therefore acceleration during these 5 s

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

a=\frac{13.41-31.29}{5}=-3.576 m/s^2

therefore time required to stop

v=u+at

here v=final velocity =0 m/s

initial velocity =31.29 m/s

0=31.29-3.576\times t

t=\frac{31.29}{3.576}=8.75 s

(b)total distance traveled before stoppage

v^2-u^2=2as

0^2-31.29^2=2\times (-3.576)\cdot s

s=136.89 m

A force of 45 newtons is applied on an object, moving it 12 meters away in the same direction as the force. What is the magnitud
NARA [144]
<h2>Answer: 540 J</h2>

Explanation:

The Work W done by a Force F refers to the release of potential energy from a body that is moved by the application of that force to overcome a resistance along a path.  

Now, when the applied force is constant and the direction of the force and the direction of the movement are parallel, the equation to calculate it is:  

W=(F)(d) (1)  

In this case both (the force and the distance in the path) are parallel (this means they are in the same direction), so the work W performed is the product of the force exerted to push the box F=45N by the distance traveled d=12m.

Hence:  

W=(45N)(12m)   (2)

W=540Nm=540J

For the following elementary reaction 2br• -&gt; br2-. The rate of consumption of the reaction and the rate of formation of prod
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: -\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{d[Br^.]}{dt}=+\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}

Explanation:

Rate of a reaction is defined as the rate of change of concentration per unit time.

Thus for reaction:

2Br^.\rightarrow Br_2

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

Rate=-\frac{d[Br^.]}{2dt}

or Rate=+\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}

Thus -\frac{d[Br^.]}{2dt}=+\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}

Calculate the mass (in SI units) of (a) a 160 lb human being; (b) a 1.9 lb cockatoo. Calculate the weight (in English units) of
kondaur [170]

Explanation:

1. Force applied on an object is given by :

F = W = mg

(a) A 160 lb human being, F = 160 lb

g = acceleration due to gravity, g = 32 ft/s²

m=\dfrac{F}{g}

m=\dfrac{160\ lb}{32\ ft/s^2}

m = 5 kg

(b) A 1.9 lb cockatoo, F = 1.9 lb

m=\dfrac{F}{g}

m=\dfrac{1.9\ lb}{32\ ft/s^2}

m = 0.059 kg

2. (a) A 2300 kg rhinoceros, m = 2300 kg

W=2300\ kg\times 32\ ft/s^2=73600\ lb

(b) A 22 g song sparrow, m = 22 g = 0.022 kg

W=0.022\ kg\times 32\ ft/s^2=0.704\ lb

Hence, this is the required solution.

You are a visitor aboard the New International Space Station, which is in a circular orbit around the Earth with an orbital spee
Alchen [17]

Answer:

The minimum total speed is 11.2km/s

Explanation:

We are been asked to find the escape velocity.

Escape velocity is defined as the minimum initial velocity that will take a body(projectile)away above the surface of a planet(earth) when it's projected vertically upwards.

The formula to calculate the escape velocity is Ve = √2gR

For the earth g = 9.8m/s2 , R = 6.4*10^6

Substituting into the equation Ve = √2*9.8*6.4*10^6 = 11.2*10^3m/s

=11.2km/s
