3 0

Answer:

I hope it is no too late

Explanation:

hmmm,

In a gas, for example, the molecules are traveling in random directions at a variety of speeds - some are fast and some are slow. ... If more energy is put into the system, the average speed of the molecules will increase and more thermal energy or heat will be produced.

The most recent evidence supporting the theory of plate tectonics would include A) GPS monitoring of plate speeds and movements.
Whitepunk [10]

A) GPS monitoring of plate speeds and movements.

Explanation:

The most recent evidence supporting the theory of plate tectonics would be GPS monitoring of plate speeds and movements.

A GPS is a Global Positioning System made up of series of components.

  • Plate tectonics theory is the movement of the earth's lithosphere relative to one another.
  • The recent advances uses a GPS system to monitor real-time movement of the plates.
  • The GPS system is made up of a system of satellite in space that communicates real-times locations to sensors on the earth surface.
  • From the sensors, observatory stations can know and duly observe how plates are moving.

Acid rain is the direct result of acid released by burning fossil fuels. T/F
disa [49]

Answer : False.

Explanation : Acid rain is the indirect result of burning fossil fuels. As the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels releases sulfur dioxide and nitrous dioxide in the air. When it rains it gets mixed with water and forms nitric acid and sulfuric acid which causes acid rain. Acid rain is harmful.

The transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid is called: Think about it: Imagine a pocket of air over the land (“land air”), a
timama [110]

Answer:

The transfer of heat by the movement of fluid is called Convection Heat Transfer

Explanation:

Heat transfer by convection is the transfer of heat by fluid transport from one place to another, such that convection takes place when the heat that comes in contact of fluid containing body is moved to other parts of the container by the transporting fluid

Heat is transferred within a fluid medium mainly by convection (movement of heat by the transfer of fluid particles in the medium)

Convection heat transfer is a combination of conduction and advection heat transfer

For a series circuit what is the terminal voltage of a battery or power supply equal to in terms of the potential difference or
trapecia [35]

Answer: V=IR

Explanation: for a series circuit connected to a battery supply, the total emf across the circuit is given as

E = I(R + r) and by expanding, we have that E =IR + It

Where r is the internal resistance of the battery

I is the total current flowing in the circuit

R total load resistance in the circuit.

E is the total emf of the circuit.

The total emf is the sum of 2 separate voltages.

"IR" which is the terminal voltage and "Ir" which is the loss voltage.

The teenila voltage is the voltage flowing in the circuit based on the equivalent resistance of the circuit while the loss voltage is the wasted voltage based on the internal resistance of the battery source.

What total mass must be converted into energy
Eduardwww [97]

This question apparently wants you to get comfortable
with  E = m c² .  But I must say, this question is a lame
way to do it.

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
                                                    E = m c²

                           1.03 x 10⁻¹³ joule  =  (m) (3 x 10⁸ m/s)²

Divide each side by (3 x 10⁸ m/s)²:

                         Mass = (1.03 x 10⁻¹³ joule) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

                                   =  (1.03 / 9) x (10⁻¹³ ⁻ ¹⁶) (kg)

                                   =        1.144 x 10⁻³⁰  kg .    (choice-1)

This is roughly the mass of (1 and 1/4) electrons, so it seems
that it could never happen in nature.  The question is just an
exercise in arithmetic, and not a particularly interesting one.
______________________________________

Something like this could have been much more impressive:
 
The Braidwood Nuclear Power Generating Station in northeastern
Ilinois USA serves Chicago and northern Illinois with electricity.
<span>The station has two pressurized water reactors, which can generate
a net total of 2,242 megawatts at full capacity, making it the largest
nuclear plant in the state.
If the Braidwood plant were able to completely convert mass
to energy, how much mass would it need to convert in order
to provide the total electrical energy that it generates in a year,
operating at full capacity ?

Energy = (2,242 x 10⁶ joule/sec) x (86,400 sec/day) x (365 da/yr)

             =  (2,242 x 10⁶ x 86,400 x 365) joules

             =          7.0704 x 10¹⁶ joules .

How much converted mass is that ?

                                           E  =  m c²

Divide each side by  c² :    Mass  =  E / c² .
c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

              Mass = (7.0704 x 10¹⁶ joules) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

                        =        0.786 kilogram ! ! !

THAT should impress us !  If I've done the arithmetic correctly,
then roughly  (1 pound  11.7 ounces) of mass, if completely
converted to energy, would provide all the energy generated
by the largest nuclear power plant in Illinois, operating at max
capacity for a year !
