How long does it take decaying organisms to transform into fossil fuels?

Physics
1 answer:
taurus [48]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Millions or hundreds of million of years

Explanation:

It takes a very long time for decaying substances to form fossil fuels. It takes around millions or hundreds of million of years for the transformation to occur. This explains why they aren’t renewable.

Decayed plant materials usually form coal while decayed animal materials form crude oil.

7. Imagine you are pushing a 15 kg cart full of 25 kg of bottled water up a 10o ramp. If the coefficient of friction is 0.02, wh
pentagon [3]

Answer:

The frictional force needed to overcome the cart is 4.83N

Explanation:

The frictional force can be obtained using the following formula:

F= \mu R

where \mu is the coefficient of friction = 0.02

R = Normal reaction of the load = mgcos\theta = 25 \times 9.81 \times cos 10 = 241.52N

Now that we have the necessary parameters that we can place into the equation, we can now go ahead and make our substitutions, to get the value of F.

F=0.02 \times 241.52N

F = 4.83 N

Hence, the frictional force needed to overcome the cart is 4.83N

A water wave has a speed of 23.0 meters/second. If the wave’s frequency is 0.0680 hertz, what is the wavelength?
tankabanditka [31]
     Using the Fundamental Equation of Wave, we have:

v=\lambda f \\ \lambda= \frac{23}{0.068}  \\ \boxed {\lambda \approx 338m}

1. What is the bond angle between the hydrogen atoms in an ammonia (NH3) molecule? 2. What is the bond angle between the oxygen
Klio2033 [76]

The answer is 107 degrees. The geometric shape for ammonia is Trigonal Pyramidal, even though its electron geometry is “Tetrahedral”. This is because ammonia has a lone pair of electrons that occupy its space like the other 3 hydrogens in the geometric structure.

The answer 180 degrees. This is because of the linear geometric structure of carbon dioxide. The oxygen atom is on either side of the carbon atom, each is bound by a double covalent bond. All the atoms are involved in the bond and there are no one pair electrons.

The answer is tetrahedral geometry. This is because all the 4 valence electrons of the carbon are involved in a bond with a hydrogen atom. The angles in a tetrahedral geometric arrangement, such as in methane, is 109.5 degrees, where the hydrogen atoms are as far apart, from each other, as possible .
