We are constantly surrounded by many types of energy transfers and transformations, showing that energy in a system is conserved

. Which of these statements are true about how energy is conserved through transfers and transformations? Choose the two that apply. A. Energy is conserved when a lamp is turned on because some of the electrical energy is transferred into thermal energy. B. Energy is conserved when thermal energy is transferred from your body to a coat. C. Energy is conserved when some of the chemical energy from burning a candle is transformed into thermal energy, while the rest of the chemical energy is transformed into light energy. D. Energy is conserved when electrical energy from a hair dryer is transferred into thermal energy and then transformed by conduction.

Answer:

Energy is conserved when some of the chemical energy from burning a candle is transformed into thermal energy, while the rest of the chemical energy is transformed into light energy.

Energy is conserved when thermal energy is transferred from your body to a coat.

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be transformed from one form to another. This can be regarded as the first law of thermodynamics.

In the answer, we see two major kinds of energy transformation around us. The both cases show the conservation of energy in a system.

Which lab equipment is used as a cover to prevent heated materials from splattering out of the container and as a holding plate
faltersainse [42]

Watchglass is a lab equipment that is used as a cover to prevent heated materials from splattering out of the container and as a holding plate for hot or flammable materials

<u>Explanation:</u>

Watch glass is an equipment used as a cover to prevent heated materials from splattering out of the container and as a holding plate for hot or flammable materials. It is a kind of concave glass which is also used to evaporate a liquid and also provides good air circulation which is used during cooking. The name watchglass was derived as they are see through and so similar to pocket glasses.

List and explain briefly similarities and differences between the electric force between two charges and the gravitational force
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Please see below as the answers are self-explanatory.

Explanation:

  • Similarities

1) The resultant force is along the line that joins both charges or both masses (assuming both objects can be represented as points)

2) Both type of forces obey  Newton's 3rd law.

3) Both are proportional to the product of the property that is affected by the force (charges and masses)

4) Both obey an inverse - square law (consequence of our universe being three-dimensional)

  • Differences

1) Main difference, is that while the gravitational force is always attractive, the electrostatic force can be attractive or repulsive, as there are two types of charges, which attract each other being of different type, and repel each other if they are of the same type.

2) It  is possible, artificially, to block the influence of the electrostatic force, shielding a room, for instance, which is not possible for the gravitational force.

A car travels 100 m while decelerating to 8 m/s in 5 s.<br> a) What was its initial speed?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Vi = 32 [m/s]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must use the following the two following kinematics equations.

v_{f} =v_{i} - (a*t)\\

The negative sign of the second term of the equation means that the velocity decreases, as indicated in the problem.

where:

Vf = final velocity = 8[m/s]

Vi = initial velocity [m/s]

a = acceleration = [m/s^2]

t = time = 5 [s]

Now replacing:

8 = Vi - 5*a

Vi = (8 + 5*a)

As we can see we have two unknowns the initial velocity and the acceleration, so we must use a second kinematics equation.

v_{f}^{2} = v_{i}^{2} - (2*a*d)

where:

d = distance = 100[m]

(8^2) = (8 + 5*a)^2 - (2*a*100)

64 = (64 + 80*a + 25*a^2) - 200*a

0 = 80*a - 200*a + 25*a^2

0 = - 120*a + 25*a^2

0 = 25*a(a - 4.8)

therefore:

a = 0 or a = 4.8 [m/s^2]

We choose the value of 4.8 as the acceleration value, since the zero value would not apply.

Returning to the first equation:

8 = Vi - (4.8*5)

Vi = 32 [m/s]

Energy that vibrates electrons causing electricity
tresset_1 [31]
Answer: Electromagnetic waves are generated by moving electrons. An electron generates an electric field which we can visualize as lines radiating from the electron Figure 10a. If the electron moves, say it vibrates back and forth, then this motion will be transferred to the field lines and they will become wavy Figure 10b.
