Answer:

Explanation:

Sunlight comes in the form of light energy. Upon striking the solar panels, it converts the light energy into electrical energy so as to run throughout the circuits. Then since it's used to power light, the electrical energy will be converted back into light energy

Answer: Option B (Light energy to electric energy to light energy)

Explanation: First, the radiation that comes from the sun, and this radiation (in the form of light and heat) is absorbed by the panel.

Now, a thermal panel absorbs light, so the initial step is light energy.

Now the panel transforms that light energy into something that can be stored, like the chemical energy that goes in a battery or the electrical energy that runs in a house, in this case, the light energy is directly transformed into the electrical energy that runs in the house, and that electrical energy is used to power the lights in the house, so it transforms into light energy.

Then the correct option is B

Which of the following nuclei is most stable based on its binding energy?

Anettt [7]

We have that the most stable nuclei are the ones with the highest average binding energy. We see that Nitrogen has a mass number of 15 and that in this region of the graph average binding energy is low. Silver and Gold are along a line where there is a constant decline in average binding energy; silver has more than gold. However, we see that at the start of this decline, there is Fe 56. This region has the elements with the highest average binding energy; Nickel with a mass number of 58 is right there and thus it is the most stable nucleus out of the listed ones.

A spring on Earth has a 0.500 kg mass suspended from one end and the mass is displaced by 0.3 m. What will the displacement of t

julia-pushkina [17]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Force of gravity given by Newton's second law (which defines the weight of an object) and at the same time we will apply the Hooke relation that talks about the strength of a body in a system with spring.

The extension of the spring due to the weight of the object on Earth is 0.3m, then

$F_k = F_{W,E}$

$kx_1 = mg$

The extension of the spring due to the weight of the object on Moon is a value of $x_2$ , then

$kx_2 = mg_m$

Recall that gravity on the moon is a sixth of Earth's gravity.

$kx_2 = m\frac{g}{6}$

$kx_2 = \frac{1}{6} mg$

$kx_2 = \frac{1}{6} kx_1$

$x_2 = \frac{1}{6} x_1$

We have that the displacement at the earth was $x_1 = 0.3m$ , then

$x_2 = \frac{1}{6} 0.3$

$x_2 = 0.05m$

Therefore the displacement of the mass on the spring on Moon is 0.05m

A. How far does a 100-newton force have to move to do 1,000 joules

Aloiza [94]

Work done by a force is given as the product of force and the distance moved by the force.

Work done is the product of force and the distance moved by the the force.

Work done = Force × distance

Thus, distance required by the 100 N force is given as:

Distance = work done/force

Distance = 1000/100 = 10 m

Distance to be moved is 10 m.

Force applied = work done/ distance

Force applied by the hoist = 500/2

Force applied by the hoist = 250 N

Distance moved in one push-up = 25 cm = 0.25 m

Work done by the athlete after one push-up = 250 × 0.25 m

Work done by the athlete = 62.5 J

Distance moved by the force = 0 m

Work done = 500 × 0 = 0 N

Therefore, for work to be done, force has to move a distance.

2. What process does water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain?

weqwewe [10]

The process that water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain is precipitation.

<h3>What is water runoffs?</h3>

Water runoff occurs when there is more water than land can absorb.

The water flows across the surface of the land and into nearby creeks, streams, or lakes.

Runoff can come from both natural processes and human activity.

When rain falls to the earth from clouds and runs downhill into rivers and lakes.

During evaporation, the water turns from liquid into gas, and moves from oceans and lakes into the atmosphere where it forms clouds.

<h3>What is precipitation?</h3>

Precipitation is any liquid (rain) or frozen water that forms in the atmosphere and falls back to the Earth, for example it could fall on land or into lakes and rivers.

Thus, the process that water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain is precipitation.

A ball traveling at 15 m/s hits a bat with a force of 200N. How much force does the bat (moving at 20m/s)

just olya [345]

Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

Given that,

A ball traveling at 15 m/s hits a bat with a force of 200 N.

We need to find the force that the bat moving at 20 m/s hit the ball with.

We know that, this probelm is based on Newton's third law of motion. The force that the ball exerting on bat should be equal to the force that the bat exerting in the ball but in opposite direction.

It would mean that the ball hits the ball with a force of 200 N. Hence, the correct option is (a).
