_______ currents assist in the transfer of thermal energy from warmer climates to cooler climates.

<span>It is convection currents that carry thermal energy from warmer places to cooler places. The process operates upon planetary scales, as suggested by the question, but also operates on more local scales such as in your own house. For example, if there is a heater within a single room within your house, convection will drive heat energy to adjacent colder rooms. </span>

A 2.0-kg laptop sits on the horizontal surface of the seat of a car moving at 8.0 m/s. The driver starts slowing down to stop. F
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer: 32.65\ m

Explanation:

Given

mass of laptop m=2 kg

The velocity of car u=8 m/s

The coefficient of static friction is \mu_s=0.4

The coefficient of kinetic friction is \mu_k=0.2

As the car is moving, so the coefficient of kinetic friction comes into play

deceleration offered by friction \mu_kg=0.2\times 9.8\ m/s^2

Using the equation of motion v^2-u^2=2as\\

insert the values

0^2-8^2=2(-0.2\times 9.8)s\\\\s=\dfrac{64}{1.96}\\\\s=32.65\ m

A force F acts in the forward direction on a cart of mass m. A friction force ff opposes this motion. Part A Use Newton's second
stellarik [79]

Answer:

a = F-ff/m

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion which states that "the rate of change in momentum of a body is directly proportional to the applied force F and acts in the direction of the force.

Mathematically;

F = ma

Since two forces acts on the cart i.e the moving force F and the frictional force Ff , we will take the sum of the forces.

∑F = ma where

m is the mass of the cart

a is its acceleration

∑F = F+(-ff )(since frictional force is an opposing force)

F - ff = ma

Dividing both sides by mass m

a = F-ff/m

A ball having a mass of 200 g is released from rest at a height of 400 mm above a very large fixed metal surface. If the ball re
AysviL [449]

Answer:

0.9

Explanation:

h = 400 mm, h' = 325 mm

Let the coefficient of restitution be e.

h' = e^2 x h

325 = e^2 x 400

e^2 = 0.8125

e = 0.9
