Thermal energy in the form of fire is generated by the combustion of fuel. Due to the tendency of hot air to rise upward, the heat generated rises to fill the space of the balloon. One this space is full of trapped hot air, the heat's tendency to rise causes the hot air balloon to be lifted into the air.

Sample Response: Convection is the method of thermal energy that occurs in hot air balloons. Thermal energy is transferred when the air above the flame becomes warm and less dense, and rises. Cool, dense air sinks and takes the place of the warm air that rises. The cool air is warmed by the flame, becomes less dense, and rises. This cycle continuously warms up the air in the balloon.

What is the amount of charge a capacitor can store per volt of potential difference?
sladkih [1.3K]

The amount of charge a capacitor can store per volt of potential difference is called the capacitance of the capacitor.

<h3>What is the capacitance?</h3>

The capacitance has to do with the amount of charge that is stored by a capacitor. We know that a capacitor is a device that can be used to store electric charges. We have in it, two capacitors separated by a dielectric material.

Hence, the amount of charge a capacitor can store per volt of potential difference is called the capacitance of the capacitor.

Two positive charges of magnitude 20 micro C and 100 micro C are placed at a distance of 150cm. Calculate the electric force of
Westkost [7]

Answer:800N

Explanation:

Force of repulsion = kq1q2/r^2

Q1= 20*10^-6

Q2=100*10^-6

R=150cm=0.15m

K= 9*10^9

F= 2*10^-5*1*10^-4*9*10^9/(0.15)^2

F= 2*1*9*10^-5-4+9/(0.15)^2

F= 18*10^0/(0.15)^2

F=18/0.0225

F=800N

Suppose an elephant has a mass of 2850 kg. show answer No Attempt How fast, in meters per second, does the elephant need to move
Bad White [126]

Answer:

1.23 m/s

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the sprinter is:

KE = 0.5 * m(s) * v²

KE = 0.5 * 77 * 7.5²

KE = 2165.63 J

If the KE of the sprinter and the KE of the elephant are equal, hence:

2165.63 = 0.5 * m(e) * v²

2165.63 = 0.5 * 2850 * v²

=> v² = 1.52

v = √(1.52)

v = 1.23 m/s
