Answer: C) motion

Explanation: Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by virtue of its motion.

Gravitational energy is the potential energy possessed by a body as virtue of its height.

Mass can contribute to potential. kinetic , gravitational energy.

Wind contributes to wind energy which is used to generate electrical energy.

Kinetic Energy is movement energy (most simplistic way I can put it) so its motion.

You obtain a 100-W light bulb and a 50-W light bulb. Instead of connecting them in the normal way, you devise a circuit that pla

lesantik [10]

Answer:

When they are connected in series

The 50 W bulb glow more than the 100 W bulb

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The power rating of the first bulb is $P_1 = 100 \ W$

The power rating of the second bulb is $P_2 = 50 \ W$

Generally the power rating of the first bulb is mathematically represented as

$P_1 = V^2 R$

Where $V$ is the normal household voltage which is constant for both bulbs

$R_1 = \frac{V^2}{P_1 }$

substituting values

$R_1 = \frac{V^2}{100}$

Thus the resistance of the second bulb would be evaluated as

$R_2 = \frac{V^2}{50}$

From the above calculation we see that

$R_2 > R_1$

This power rating of the first bulb can also be represented mathematically as

$P_ 1 = I^2_1 R_1$

This power rating of the first bulb can also be represented mathematically as

$P_ 2 = I^2_2 R_2$

Now given that they are connected in series which implies that the same current flow through them so

$I_1^2 = I_2^2$

This means that

$P \ \alpha \ R$

So when they are connected in series

$P_2 > P_1$

This means that the 50 W bulb glows more than the 100 \ W bulb

A 26.4 g silver ring (cp = 234 J/kg·°C) is heated to a temperature of 66.2°C and then placed in a calorimeter containing 4.94 ✕

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.

Explanation:

Heat lost by the silver ring = heat gained by the water + heat transferred to the surrounding.

c₁m₁(t₁-t₃) = c₂m₂(t₃-t₂) + Q..............Equation 1

Where c₁ = specific heat capacity of the silver copper, m₁ = mass of the silver copper, t₁ = initial temperature of the silver copper, t₃ = final temperature of the mixture. c₂ = specific heat capacity of water, t₂ = initial temperature of water, m₂ = mass of water, Q = energy transferred to the surrounding.

making t₃ the subject of the equation,

t₃ = [c₁m₁t₁+c₂m₂t₂-Q]/(c₁m₁+c₂m₂)........................ Equation 2

Given: c₁ = 234 J/kg.°C, m₁ = 26.4 g, t₁ = 66.2 °C, c₂ = 4200 J/K.°C, m₂ = 4.92×10⁻² kg, t₂ = 24.0 °C, Q = 0.136 J.

Substituting into equation 2

t₃ = [(234×26.4×66.2)+(4200×0.0492×24)-0.136]/[(234×26.4)+(4200×0.0492)]

t₃ = (408957.12+4959.36-0.136)/(6177.6+206.64)

t₃ = (413916.48-0.136)/6384.24

t₃ = 413916.34/6384.24

Thus the final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.

A beam oflight is reflected off a mirror. If the angle of incidence is 30 degrees, according to the Law of Reflection the angle

zaharov [31]

Answer:

30°

Explanation:

According to the second law of reflection, it States that the angle of incidence i is equal to the angle of reflection r.

The angle of incidence is known to be the angle between the incident ray and the normal.

The Angle of reflection is the angle between the reflected ray and the normal.

This normal ray is a ray that is perpendicular to the surface.

According to the question, if the beam of light is reflected off the surface and its angle of incidence is 30°, its angle of reflection will also be 30° i.e i=r = 30°
