Answer:

30[gal] would be requiered.

Explanation:

The consumption ratio is given by the following expression:

\frac{3.6[MJ]}{[1pass-km]}

To find the amount of energy needed we must multiply the ratio by the number of passengers, in this way the unit passenger-kilometer is removed from the denominator.

\frac{3.6[MJ]}{[1 pass-km]}*1[pass-1000km]\\\\ = 3600[MJ]

1 gal = 120 [MJ]

  x    = 3600[MJ]

x = 30 [gal]

What kind of energy change occurs when a battery is operating a remote control toy?
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C.

When the battery is operating a remote control toy the energy is converted from potential energy to the kinetic energy.

A battery stores electrical potential from the chemical reaction.

When the circuit is connected to the potential energy of the battery helps in the movement of the toy.

The energy produced by the movement of the control toy is kinetic energy.

Hence, we can say that Potential energy is changed to kinetic energy

(a) what will an object weigh on the moon's surface if it weighs 100 n on earth's surface
juin [17]
We know the equation

weight = mass × gravity

To work out the weight on the moon, we will need its mass, and the gravitational field strength of the moon.
Remember that your weight can change, but mass stays constant.

So using the information given about the earth weight, we can find the mass by substituting 100N for weight, and we know the gravity on earth is 10Nm*2 (Use the gravitational field strength provided by your school, I am assuming yours in 10Nm*2)

Therefore,

100N = mass × 10
mass= 100N/10
mass= 10 kg

Now, all we need are the moon's gravitational field strength and to apply this to the equation

weight = 10kg × (gravity on moon)
