Thermal energy is converted to radiative energy via molecular collisions and released as photons.
The International Astronomical Union (IAU) downgraded the status of Pluto to that of a dwarf planet because it did not meet the three criteria the IAU uses to define a full-sized planet. Essentially Pluto meets all the criteria except one—it “has not cleared its neighboring region of other objects.
Answer:
4.
a) W = 750 J
b) W = 2250 J
c) t = 2 sec
5. Answered in explanation
Explanation:
4.
The formula of power is given as:
P = W/t
where,
P = Power
W = Work Done
t = Time Taken
a)
Here,
P = 750 W
t = 1 sec
W = ?
Therefore,
750 W = W/1 sec
<u>W = 750 J</u>
b)
Here,
P = 750 W
t = 3 sec
W = ?
Therefore,
750 W = W/3 sec
W = (750 W)(3 sec)
<u>W = 2250 J</u>
c)
Here,
P = 750 W
t = ?
W = 1500 J
Therefore,
750 W = 1500 J/t
t = 1500 J/750 W
<u>t = 2 sec</u>
<u></u>

According to Kinetic Particle Theory, the molecules are tightly packed with each other, by strong inter-molecular forces and they can only vibrate at their position. While, molecules or particles in liquids have lesser attractive forces among them. They can move in layers and can take the shape of any container. <u>This is the reason why solid has a definite shape and liquid has none.</u>
Yes, electromagnetic waves do carry energy. In fact, every wave carries energy: that is, potential energy.
