no because nuclear energy come from kinetic not potential energy. burning a wax candle is an example of heat/thermal energy .

Cool facts about satellites ???
svetoff [14.1K]
Satellites travel at 18,000 miles per hour. ...

A satellite gets better fuel economy than a Prius.

If you put all of the data that our satellites collect in a year on DVDs, it would form a stack nearly 4 times the height of the Empire State Building.

There are over 2,500 satellites in orbit around the Earth.

Can a body have increasing velocity with decreasing acceleration?
Sergio039 [100]
Sure.  The acceleration may be decreasing, but as long as it stays
in the same direction as the velocity, the velocity increases.

I think you meant to ask whether the body can have increasing velocity
with negative acceleration.  That answer isn't simple either.

If the body's velocity is in the positive direction, then positive acceleration
means speeding up, and negative acceleration means slowing down.

BUT ... If the body's velocity is in the negative direction, then positive
acceleration means slowing down, and negative acceleration means
speeding up.

I know that's confusing. 

-- Take a piece of scratch paper, write a 'plus' sign at one edge and
a 'minus' sign at the other edge.  Those are the definitions of which
direction is positive and which direction is negative. 

-- Then sketch some cars ... one traveling in the positive direction, and
one driving in the negative direction.  Those are the directions of the
velocities.

-- Now, one car at a time:
. . . . . first push on the back of the car, in the direction it's moving;.
. . . . . then push on the front of the car, against its motion.
Each push causes the car to accelerate in the direction of the push.

When you see it on paper, all the positive and negative velocities
and accelerations will come clear for you.

un tanque de gasolina de 40 litros fue llenado por la noche, cuando la temperatura era de 68 grados farenheit. Al dia siguiente
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Volume of gasoline that expands and spills out is 1.33 ltr

Explanation:

As we know that when temperature of the liquid is increased then its volume will expand and it is given as

\Delta V = V_o\gamma \Delta T

here we know that

V_o = 40 Ltr

volume expansion coefficient of the gasoline is given as

\gamma = 950 × 10^{–6}

change in temperature is given as

\Delta T = (131 - 68) \times \frac{5}{9}

\Delta T = 35 ^oC

Now we have

\Delta V = 40(950 \times 10^{-6})(35)

\Delta V = 1.33 Ltr

A ball is thrown upward at time t=0 from the ground with an initial velocity of 60 m/s (~ 134 mph). Assume that g = 10 m/s2.At w
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

6 second

Explanation:

initial velocity of ball, u = 60 m/s

g = 10 m/s^2

Let the ball takes time t to reach at the maximum height

We know that at maximum height, the velocity of ball is zero.

v = 0 m/s

Use first equation of motion

v = u + gt

0 = 60 - 10 x t

t = 6 second

Thus, the ball takes 6 second to reach to maximum height.
