Boiling water. heat goes from the burner into the pot which heats the water at the bottom. this hot water rises and cooler water moves down to replace it, causing a circular motion.

Describe the water cycle process starting from an afternoon thunderstorm. There are many different variations that could happen.

spin [16.1K]

Explanation:

The water cycle basically involves five steps:

evaporation and transpiration ⇄
condensation, ⇄
precipitation, ⇄
runoff, ⇄
infiltration ⇄

So when a thunderstorm occurs it helps in completing the precipitation process by enabling the release of water vapor stored up in the atmosphere to fall on the ground as rain.

After this, the water runoffs to the surface of the ground, on plants, into rocks, rivers, and lakes.

Next, the Infiltration process enables the water on the ground surface to enter the soil some of which becomes groundwater.

The cycle begins again as the evaporation and transpiration process begins, where the groundwater as a result of heat from the sun is taken back into the atmosphere, while water in plants by means of transpiration goes back into the atmosphere.

It then condenses and falls back as precipitation again.

Two identical conducting spheres, A and B, carry equal charge. They are separated by a distance much larger than their diameters

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

C. $\frac{3F}{8}$

Explanation:

Let initial charges on both spheres be, $q$

$F=\frac{Kq^2}{d^2} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \_i$

When the sphere C is touched by A, the final charges on both will be, $\frac{q}{2}$

#Now, when C is touched by B, the final charges on both of them will be:

$q_c=q_d=\frac{q/2+q}{2}\\\\=\frac{3q}{4}\\$

Now the force between A and B is calculated as:

$F\prime=\frac{k\times\frac{q}{2}\times \frac{3q}{4}}{d^2}\\F\prime=\frac{3F}{8}$

Hence the electrostatic force becomes 3F/8

You throw a glob of putty straight up toward the ceiling, which is 3.50 mm above the point where the putty leaves your hand. The

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer: $4.65\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given

Distance putty has to travel is 3.5 m

The initial speed of putty is 9.50 m/s

Using equation of motion to determine the velocity of putty just before it hits ceiling

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$\Rightarrow v^2-(9.5)^2=2(-9.8)(3.5)\\\\\Rightarrow v^2=9.5^2-68.6\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{90.25-68.6}\\\Rightarrow v=4.65\ m/s$

So, the velocity of putty just before hitting is $4.65\ m/s$

If a ball is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of 80 ft/s, then its height after t seconds is s = 80t − 16t 2 . (a) what

MAXImum [283]

Max height occurs when v = 0.
v(t) = ds(t)/dt
v(t) = 80 - 32t
0 = 80 - 32t
t = 5/2

s(5/2) = 80(5/2) - 16(5/2)^2
s(5/2) = 100
Answer: 100 ft

96 = 80t - 16t²
t = 3, 2
(80 ± √256) / 32 using the quadratic equation.

v(2) = 16
v(3) = -16
