Answer: Conduction

Explanation: As ice melts,more sunlight is absorbed,as more sunlight is absorbed,the atmosphere heats up,as the atmosphere heats up,more ice melts. This whole process is known as CONDUCTION.

Conduction occurs when there is different temperature between two materials, when there exist a transfer energy(i.e transfer from higher-energy atoms in the hot region to the lower-energy atoms in the cold region). When the atmosphere is heated up due to sunlight,there is a rise in temperature which makes the ice to melt due to transfer of warmth it absorbed from sunlight.

Two ball bearings of mass m each moving in opposite directins with equal speed v collide head on with each other.predict the out
posledela

Yo sup??

since the collision is elastic therefore we can say that the two balls will then move in opposite direction.

If ball 1 was moving from east to west then after collision it will move from west to east

and if ball 2 was moving from west to east then it will start moving from east to west.

Hope this helps.

A 545-kg satellite is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height above Earth equal to Earth's mean radius. (a) Find the satelli
Art [367]

Answer

given,

mass of satellite = 545 Kg

R = 6.4 x 10⁶ m

H = 2 x 6.4 x 10⁶ m

Mass of earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ Kg

height above earth is equal to earth's mean radius

a) satellite's orbital velocity

   centripetal force acting on satellite = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

     gravitational force = \dfrac{GMm}{r^2}

    equating both the above equation

    \dfrac{mv^2}{r} = \dfrac{GMm}{r^2}

      v = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}

      v = \sqrt{\dfrac{6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 5.972 \times 10^{24}}{2 \times 6.4 \times 10^6}}

          v = 5578.5 m/s

b) T= \dfrac{2\pi\ r}{v}

   T= \dfrac{2\pi\times 2\times 6.4 \times 10^6}{5578.5}

   T= \dfrac{2\pi\times 2\times 6.4 \times 10^6}{5578.5}

          T = 14416.92 s

          T = \dfrac{14416.92}{3600}\ hr

          T = 4 hr

c) gravitational force acting

  F = \dfrac{GMm}{r^2}

  F = \dfrac{6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 545 \times 5.972 \times 10^{24} }{(6.46 \times 10^6)^2}

     F = 5202 N

How will the amount of power change if less work is done in more time?
yKpoI14uk [10]

The amount of power change if less work is done in more time"then the amount of power will decrease".

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The rate of performing any work or activity by transferring amount of energy per unit time is understood as power. The unit of power is watt

Power = \frac{Work}{Time}  

Here this equation showcase that power is directly proportional to the work but dependent upon time as time is inversely proportional to the power i.e as time increases power decreases and vice versa.

This can be understood from an instance, on moving a load up a flight of stairs, the similar amount of work is done, no matter how heavy but  when the work is done in a shorter period of time more power is required.
