Answer:

The ball would have greatest speed at the bottom of ramp C

Explanation:

From the given ramps, C would generate the highest potential energy especially at the highest point that the ball starts to move down the ramp. Potential energy is the energy possessed by an object moving with a uniform velocit or at rest. Since potential energy increases with height, the potential energy gained by the ball on ramp C would cause an increase in its momentum as it glides down to the bottom of the ramp.

iren2701 [21]
In order to form a real image using a concave mirror, the object must be placed beyond the center of curvature of the mirror. Therefore, the object must be further from the mirror than the focal point. The image that will form will be real, but it will also be inverted and its magnification will be less than 1, meaning it will be smaller than the actual object.

jeka94

Answer:

This question will be answered based on general photosynthetic understanding. The answer is:

The production of oxygen would increase

Explanation:

The characteristics of most plant forms is their ability to photosynthesize i.e. use solar energy (from sunlight) to make food (chemical energy). The product of this photosynthetic process is OXYGEN gas, which is released as a waste product via the stomata on their leaves. Note that, photosynthesis cannot occur without LIGHT as it provides the energy needed for the process.

Hence, in the duckweed plant like every other photosynthetic plant, the increase in the intensity and duration of exposure to light means the rate at which photosynthesis occurs will be increased. An increased photosynthetic rate means the synthesis of the products will also be increased i.e. glucose and OXYGEN.

What temperature is required to transfer waste heat to the environment for a heat engine to be 100 percent efficient?
OLEGan [10]
This can be seen as a trick question because heat engines can typically never be 100 percent efficient. This is due to the presence of inefficiencies such as friction and heat loss to the environment. Even the best heat engines can only go up to around 50% efficiency.
