Answer:

610 meters.

Explanation:

Because Jim released the accelerator, the truck started to slow down, so the friction force will eventually stop the truck.

the kinetic energy of the truck just after Jim released the pedal is:

E_k=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2\\E_k=\frac{1}{2}*2268*(22)^2=548856J

The work done by the friction force is given by:

W_f=F_s*d\\\\d=\frac{548856J}{900N}\\\\d=610m

An electric iron operating at 120 volts draws 10. amperes of current. how much heat energy
faltersainse [42]
The complete question is how much heat energy is delivered by the iron in 30 seconds.
Heat is given by IVt, Where I is the current in Amperes, V is the voltage, and t is the time in seconds,
Therefore; 
Heat energy = 120 × 10 ×30
                     = 36000 joules or 36 kJ
Heat energy is measured in joules.

padilas [110]

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Solar radiation at frequencies of visible light passes through the atmosphere, heating the planet's surface, subsequently this energy is emitted in infrared thermal radiation. This radiation is absorbed by the gases produced by the combustion of fossil fuels. Therefore, the greater the amount of these gases in the atmosphere, the more heat will be trapped in the earth, raising its global temperature.
