<h2>A. Coal</h2><h2 />

Coal produces half of the electricity in the United States.  Sadly, when coal is burned as fuel, it gives off carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas that is linked with global warming.

valkas [14]

Answer:

Sonar

Explanation:

Sonar is a technique that involves the use of sounds in viewing substances in a water medium to aid movement or communication. It makes use of the advantage of sound waves traveling faster and farther in water when compared to other types of waves such as light waves.

During World War II, the military employed the use of SONAR in imaging the seafloor by sending pulses of sound waves down through the water and measuring the time it took for the sound to bounce off the seafloor and return to the receiver.

A 12.70 g bullet has a muzzle velocity (at the moment it leaves the end of a firearm) of 430 m/s when rifle with a weight of 25.
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

2.1844 m/s

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of momentum can be applied here.

when two objects interact, the total momentum remains the same  provided no external forces are acting.

Consider the whole system , gun and bullet. as an isolated system, so the net momentum is constant. In particular before firing the gun, the net momentum is zero. The conservation of momentum,

0=m_{bullet}*v_{bullet}  + m_{rifle}*v_{rifle}  \\

assume the bullet goes to right side and the gravitational acceleration =10 ms^{-2}

so now the weight of the rifle=\frac{25}{10}  

0=m_{bullet}*v_{bullet}  + m_{rifle}*v_{rifle}  \\\\0=(12.70*10^{-3}) *430ms^{-1} +(\frac{25}{10} )*v_{rifle} \\v_{rifle} =-2.1844ms^{-1}

this is a negative velocity to the right side. that means the rifle recoils to the left side

Describe how charge is transferred from the ruler to the metal rod.
spin [16.1K]
When the ruler is broughı near the inetal knob, it repels electrons in the metal. Electrons move away froni the ruler and down the metal rod. The knob now has a positive charge. The thin pieces of metal foil at the bottom of the metal rod now have a negative charge.

Two movers are pushing a large crate with a force of 60.0 n each. one pushes north, the other east. what is the equilibrant forc
romanna [79]
To get the solution you must need to draw a force triangle. Attach the head of the 60N north force arrow with the tail of the 60N east force arrow. The subsequent is the arrow connecting he tail and head of the two arrows. 
You get a right angled triangle, and the resultant is (60^2 + 60^2) ^0.5 = 84.85 N or 85 N northeast.
