Coal and other fossil fuels are considered to be "nonrenewable" sources of energy. How does the use of nonrenewable fuels affect

the total energy of the universe?
A. Nonrenewable energy sources reduce the total energy by using up thermal or kinetic energy.
B. Nonrenewable sources of energy add to the total energy of the universe as they are used.
C. The burning of fossil fuels permanently reduces the total energy of the universe by using up chemical energy.
D. Although the total energy remains constant, nonrenewable fuels convert chemical energy into forms that are difficult or impossible to use again.

Answer: D Although the total energy remains constant, nonrenewable fuels convert chemical energy into forms that are difficult or impossible to use again.

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics says that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; energy can only be transferred or changed from one form to another.

As the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation increases. true or false
KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The energy and the frequency of electromagnetic radiation inversely proportional to the frequency of radiation.

So, as the wavelength increases, the energy and the frequency decreases.

Dry air is primarily composed of nitrogen. In a classroom demonstration, a physics instructor pours 3.6 L of liquid nitrogen int
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

The  value is  V_n  =  2.2498 \  m^3

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The volume of  liquid nitrogen is  V_n  =  3.6 \  L=  3.6 *10^{-3} \ m^3

   The  density of  nitrogen at gaseous form   is  \rho_n =  1.2929 \  kg/m^3  =  The dry air at sea level

   

Generally the density of nitrogen at liquid form is  

         \rho _l = 808 \  kg/m^3

And this is mathematically represented as

      \rho_l  =  \frac{m}{V_l }

=>   m  =  \rho_l  *  V_l

Now the density of  gaseous nitrogen is

       \rho_n  =  \frac{m}{V_n }

=>   m  =  \rho_n  *  V_n

Given that the mass is constant

       \rho_n  *  V_n  =   \rho_l  *  V_l

        1.2929*  V_n  =   808  *  3.6*10^{-3}

=>   V_n  =  2.2498 \  m^3

One observer stands on a train moving at a constant speed, and one observer stands at rest on the ground. The person on the trai
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Option D.

Value cannot be calculated without knowing the speed of the train

Explanation:

The speed of the beam can only be calculated accurately when the speed of the train is put into consideration. Based of the theory of relativity, the observer is on the ground, and the train is moving with the beam of light inside it. This causes a variation in the reference frames when making judgements of the speed of the beam. The speed of the beam will be more accurate if the observer is moving at the same sped of the train, or the train is stationary.

To get the correct answer, we have to subtract the speed of the train from the speed calculated.

The vector product of vectors A⃗ and B⃗ has magnitude 12.0 m2 and is in the +z-direction.Vector A⃗ has magnitude 4.0 m and is in
g100num [7]

Answer:

θ=180°

Explanation:

The problem says that the vector product of A and B is in the +z-direction, and that the vector A is in the -x-direction. Since vector B has no x-component, and is perpendicular to the z-axis (as A and B are both perpendicular to their vector product), vector B has to be in the y-axis.

Using the right hand rule for vector product, we can test the two possible cases:

  • If vector B is in the +y-axis, the product AxB should be in the -z-axis. Since it is in the +z-axis, this is not correct.

  • If vector B is in the -y-axis, the product AxB should be in the +z-axis. This is the correct option.

Now, the problem says that the angle θ is measured from the +y-direction to the +z-direction. This means that the -y-direction has an angle of 180° (half turn).

Help please! Will give brainliest to first correct answer!
Olegator [25]

Answer:

1) Addition of a catalyst

2) To change the reaction rate of slope B to look like slope A, simply add a catalyst to speed up the rate of reaction, giving you a higher amount of products in a shorter amount of time (line A)

Explanation:

1 and 2)Two things can alter the rate of a reaction, either the addition of a catylist which will not alter the composition of the products or reactants, but will accelerate the reaction time, or an increase in temperature will also increase the rate at which a reaction will occur.

You could choose temperature also and have the same result, it's your choice both are correct, but catalyst is the easiest.
