<h3>Answer;</h3>

Electric motor

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Energy is the ability to do work. According to the law of conservation of energy, energy can not be created nor destroyed but can be changed from one form to another.
Changing energy from one form to another is done by devices we call transducers. These are elements that convert energy from one form to another.
In this case, electrical motor is an example of a transducer that converts electrical energy to kinetic energy. Electrical energy is supplied to a the motor which converts it to rotational energy or mechanical energy then to kinetic energy.

What is the source of geothermal energy? User: What is the source of geothermal energy?

bazaltina [42]

The answer is; C

In particular points in the earth’s surface, underground water is naturally heated to steam that can be harness for geothermal energy. The steam that ejects from the ground with high kinetic energy can be used to turn turbines that generate electricity. The underground water is usually heated by the hot rocks beneath that are subjected to the immense heat of magma or the enormous pressure of overlying crust.

A 25 kg circular disk has a diameter of 2.5 feet and a thickness of 2.5 cm. Find the density of the disk in kg/m3. Next, find th

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Assume that $\rm g= 9.81\; N\cdot kg^{-1}$ ; $\rho(\text{Water}) = \rm 1000\;kg\cdot m^{-3}$ .

Density of the disk: approximately $\rm 2.19\times 10^{3}\; kg\cdot m^{-3}$ .

Weight of the disk: approximately $\rm 245\;N$ .

Buoyant force on the disk if it is submerged under water: approximately $\rm 112\; N$ .

The disk will sink when placed in water.

Explanation:

Convert the dimensions of this disk to SI units:

Diameter: $d = \rm 25\; inches = (25\times 0.3048)\; m = 0.762\;m$ .
Thickness $h = \rm 2.5\; cm = (2.5\times 0.01)\; m = 0.025\;m$ .

The radius of a circle is 1/2 its diameter:

$\displaystyle r = \rm \frac{1}{2}\times 0.762\;m = 0.381\; m$ .

Volume of this disk:

$V(\text{disk}) = \pi\cdot r^{2}\cdot h = \pi\times 0.381^{2}\times 0.025 \approx 0.0114009\; m^{3}$ .

Density of this disk:

$\displaystyle \rho(\text{disk}) = \frac{m}{V} = \rm \frac{25\; kg}{0.0114009\; m^{3}} = 2.19\times 10^{3}\;kg\cdot m^{-3}$ .

$\rho(\text{disk}) >\rho(\text{water})$ indicates that the disk will sink when placed in water.

Weight of the object:

$W(\text{disk}) = m\cdot g = \rm 25\times 9.81 = 245.25\; N$ .

The buoyant force on an object in water is equal to the weight of water that this object displaces. When this disk is submerged under water, it will displace approximately $\rm 0.0114009\; m^{3}$ of water. The buoyant force on the disk will be:

$\begin{aligned}F(\text{buoyant force}) &= W(\text{Water Displaced}) \\& = \rho\cdot V(\text{Water Displaced})\cdot g\\ & = \rm 1\times 10^{3}\; kg\cdot m^{-3}\times 0.0114009\; m^{3}\times 9.81\; N\cdot kg^{-1}\\ &\approx \rm 112\; N\end{aligned}$ .

The size of this disk's weight is greater than the size of the buoyant force on it when submerged under water. As a result, the disk will sink when placed in water.

How does water affect the coastal climate?

JulijaS [17]

Large bodies of water such as oceans, seas, and large lakes affect the climate of an area. Water heats and cools more slowly than land. Thus, in the summer, the coastal regions will stay cooler and in winter warmer. A more moderate climate with a smaller temperature range is created.

Prominences and sunspots are both:

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

C. Influenced by the Sun's electromagnetic field

Explanation:

"Sunspots occur in pairs because each is one side of a loop of the Sun's magnetic field that reaches the Sun's surface. Solar prominences are the plasma loops that connect two sunspots."
