Answer:

The correct answer is option B. coal

Explanation:

Coal is made of remains of organic material including trees and other vegetation which got trapped beneath the earth’s surface or at the bottom of the swamps. After burial below the ground the organic material was acted upon by the high temperature and pressure in the absence of air to form peat. Peat after further processing for a longer period of time converted into coal

What is the greatest distance an image can be located behind a convex spherical mirror?
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Maximum distance of image from mirror is equal to focal length of the mirror

Explanation:

As we know by the equation of mirror we have

\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{d_o} = \frac{1}{f}

here we know for convex mirror

object position is always negative as it will be placed behind the mirror always

while the focal length of the convex mirror is always taken positive

So here we have

\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{-d_o} = \frac{1}{f}

\frac{1}{d_i} = \frac{1}{d_o} + \frac{1}{f}

so here maximum value of image distance is equal to focal length of the mirror

A beam of microwaves with λ = 0.9 mm is incident upon a 9 cm slit. At a distance of 1.5 m from the slit, what is the approximate
liq [111]

Answer:

3 cm

Explanation:

According to the question,

D=1.5 m.

d=9 cm.

\lambda =0.9 mm.

Now the approximate slit's image width is equal to width of central maxima.

And width of central maxima is twice the width from center to first maxima

So,

y=2\frac{\lambda (D)}{d}.

Substitute all the variable in above equation.

y=\frac{(2)0.9\times 10^{-2} m(1.5 m) }{0.09 m}.

y=3 cm.

What is the first law of conservation of energy? How is the law applicable to the earths energy balance
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

First law of thermodynamic state that energy is always conserved, in other word, energy cannot be created or destroyed.

This means that energy can only transfer from one source to another.

For example, the electricity we used to power our phone didn't come from nowhere.

We charge our phone using the energy from the electricity from the outlet.

The outlet gets its energy from the power plant, who generated that energy from burning coal.

The coal they burned got their energy while they were alive as plants.

The plants got their energy from the sun.

The sun got its energy from other cosmic stuff and so on...

My point is that the energy we use will always cycle around. It doesn't come from thin air and it doesn't disappear into thin air either. This help keeps things balance because if energy is created out of thin air then the earth might just blow up. If energy gets erased into thin air then there'll be nothing to fuel life.
