When a candle burns, which forms of energy does the chemical energy in the candle change to?

Physics
1 answer:
Olegator [25]3 years ago
6 0

When a candle burns, you can't hear the flame, and you can't light a light-bulb with it, so you know that there's no sound energy or electrical energy coming from it.

However, if you've ever actually been around a candle while it's in the act of burning, you may have noticed that you can SEE the flame, and if you put your hand close enough to it, you can FEEL the flame and even burn yourself in it. These observations indicate that while the candle is burning, the chemical energy in it is being converted to light energy and heat energy. (choice-C)

Which is true?The photoelectric effect occurs only for frequencies below the cutoff frequency, regardless of the intensity.The p
Crank

Answer:

The photoelectric effect occurs only for frequencies above the cutoff frequency, regardless of the intensity.

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect occurs when light is shined on metals such as zinc beyond a certain frequency (the threshold frequency), which causes electrons to escape from the zinc. The electrons which are fleeing are called photo electrons.

Therefore photo electric effect is

The photoelectric effect occurs only for frequencies above the cutoff frequency, regardless of the intensity.

The entropy of an isolated system must be conserved, so it never changes.a. Trueb. Fasle
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

B: False

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics states that: the entropy of an isolated system will never decrease because isolated systems always tend to evolve towards thermodynamic equilibrium which is a state with maximum entropy.

Thus, it means that the entropy change will always be positive.

Therefore, the given statement in the question is false.

If a pebble is being transported in a stream by rolling, how does the velocity of it compare to the velocity of the stream?
AleksandrR [38]
Streams carry sediment, like pebbles, in their flows. The pebbles can be in a variety of locations in the flow, depending on it's size, the balance between the upwards velocity on the pebble (drag and lift forces), and it's settling velocity.

How is velocity ratio of wheel and axle calculatedaad<br>​
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

VR = \frac{Radius of wheel}{Radius of axle}

Explanation:

A machine is a device that can be used to overcome a load by the application of an effort through a pivot. Examples are: pulleys, wedge, screw jack, wheel and axle etc.

The wheel and axle is a simple device that can be used to lift a load through a height. Its velocity ratio (VR) can be determined by:

VR = \frac{Radius of wheel}{Radius of axle}

Note that for a practical wheel and axle, the radius of the wheel is greater than the radius of the axle.
