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)

SECTION B<br>THEORY QUESTIONS<br>(1a) Define the following<br>(a) Work:​
Vesna [10]

Work is the amount of energy transferred

Explanation:

In physics, work is a measure of the energy transfer occurring in a process. Typically, we talk about work when energy is converted from one form into another.

For instance, work is done when a force is applied on an object. The work done on the object is given by:

W=Fd cos \theta

where

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

We notice the following:

  • No work is done when the force is perpendicular to the displacement (cos 90^{\circ}=0)
  • The work is maximum when the force is parallel to the displacement

Whenever work is done, there is also an energy transfer taking place. For instance, in the previous example, when the force is applied to the object, the object will accelerate (assume there is no friction), and will gain kinetic energy: therefore, there is a transfer of energy to the object.

Southern state and local elections in 1876 differed from those in previous years in that
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Southern state and local elections in 1876 differed from those in previous years in that the election of 1876 was one of the closest races in American history. It tested the Constitution and resulted in a compromise that ended Reconstruction in America.

The election of 1876 between Rutherford B. Hayes and Democrat Samuel Tilden of New York was one of the most hostile, controversial campaigns in American history. The vote was 8-7 along party lines to award the disputed electoral college votes to Hayes, making him the winner.

Explanation:

The Compromise of 1876 is known for being the catalyst for the end of Reconstruction era, it was one of the most contentious and controversial presidential elections in American history.

Republican nominee Rutherford B. Hayes faced Democrat Samuel J. Tilden. After a controversial post-election process, He lost the popular vote to Democrat Samuel J. Tilden but he won an intensely disputed electoral college vote after a Congressional commission awarded him twenty contested electoral votes Hayes was declared the winner. The Hayes-Tilden Compromise is often seen as the final point that brought an end to Reconstruction, as it led to the removal of the US army from the South.

As Florida's Supreme Court had earlier declared a Democratic victory in the 1876 gubernatorial election, Democrats had been restored to power all across the South. The Compromise of 1876 effectively ended the Reconstruction era.

Southern Democrats' promised to protect civil and political rights of blacks as they were not kept, and to end of federal interference in southern affairs. This led to widespread disenfranchisement of blacks voters. Other factors that contributed to the end of Reconstruction were the Panic of 1873 and political corruption in the United States.

The Compromise of 1877 (the Great Betrayal) was an informal, unwritten deal, that settled the intensely disputed 1876 U.S. presidential election. It resulted in the United States federal government pulling the last troops out of the South, and formally ended the Reconstruction Era.

A 117 kg horizontal platform is a uniform disk of radius 1.61 m and can rotate about the vertical axis through its center. A 62.
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

I_syst = 278.41477 kg.m²

Explanation:

Mass of platform; m1 = 117 kg

Radius; r = 1.61 m

Moment of inertia here is;

I1 = m1•r²/2

I1 = 117 × 1.61²/2

I1 = 151.63785 kg.m²

Mass of person; m2 = 62.5 kg

Distance of person from centre; r = 1.05 m

Moment of inertia here is;

I2 = m2•r²

I2 = 62.5 × 1.05²

I2 = 68.90625 kg.m²

Mass of dog; m3 = 28.3 kg

Distance of Dog from centre; r = 1.43 m

I3 = 28.3 × 1.43²

I3 = 57.87067 kg.m²

Thus,moment of inertia of the system;

I_syst = I1 + I2 + I3

I_syst = 151.63785 + 68.90625 + 57.87067

I_syst = 278.41477 kg.m²
