<h2>Answers:</h2>

-The first direct detection of gravitational waves came in 2015

-The existence of gravitational waves is predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity

-Gravitational waves carry energy away from their sources of emission

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Gravitational waves were discovered (theoretically) by Albert Einstein in 1916 and "observed" for the first time in direct form in 2015 (although the results were published in 2016).  

These gravitational waves are fluctuations or disturbances of space-time produced by a massive accelerated body, modifying the distances and the dimensions of objects in an imperceptible way.  

In this context, an excellent example is the system of two neutron stars that orbit high speeds, producing a deformation that propagates like a wave,<u> in the same way as when a stone is thrown into the water</u>. So, in this sense, gravitational waves carry energy away from their sources .

Therefore, the correct options are D, E and F.

Two objects are placed in thermal contact and are allowed to come to equilibrium in isolation. The heat capacity of Object A is
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat capacity A = 3 x heat capacity of B

initial temperature of A = 2 x initial temperature of B

TA = 2 TB

Let T be the final temperature of the system

Heat lost by A is equal to the heat gained by B

mass of A x specific heat of A x (TA - T) = mass of B x specific heat of B x ( T - TB)

heat capacity of A x ( TA - T) = heat capacity of B x ( T - TB)

3 x heat capacity of B x ( TA - T) = heat capacity of B x ( T - TB)

3 TA - 3 T = T - TB

6 TB + TB = 4 T

T = 1.75 TB
