Answer:

<em>c. tension, gravity, and the centripetal force</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The ball experiences a variety of force as explained below.

Gravity force acts on the body due to its mass and the acceleration due to gravity. The gravity force on every object on earth due to its mass keeps all object on the surface of the earth.

Although the car moves around in circle, centripetal towards the center of the radius of turn exists on the ball. This centripetal force is due to the constantly changing direction of the circular motion, resulting in a force away from the center. The centripetal force keeps the ball from swinging off away from the center of turn.

Tension force on the string holds the ball against falling towards the earth under its own weight, and also from swinging away from the center of turn of the car. Tension force holds the ball relatively fixed in its vertical position in the car.

Jeremiah is conducting an investigation about the water cycle. He is given the following
Vlada [557]

The water cycle outlines the continuous water movement in liquid, solid and gaseous state between locations on the Earth's surface.

  • The glass jar represents the lake while the atmosphere is represented by the space above the water, and the sky is represented by the (clear) plastic wrap

Arrangement description and Processes;

The processes of the water cycle includes;

  • Evaporation;
  • Condensation
  • Precipitation
  • Sublimation
  • Runoff
  • Infiltration

The arrangement of the materials is as follows;

  • Place the glass jar (the lake) containing water and the lamp (the Sun) side by side, such that the lamp light shines on the water surface

  • Cover the glass jar by wrapping the plastic wrap (the sky) around it to prevent the escape of water vapor when the water is hot.

  • Switch on the lamp so that it heats the water by radiation heat transfer

Observed processes;

The processes demonstrated by the above experiment includes;

1) Evaporation: As the water in the glass jar becomes warmer, the level of the water in the jar can be observed to decrease slightly due to evaporation

2) Condensation: Fog formation, Clouds

When hotter, the water surface as seen through the clear plastic wrap becomes less clearer due to evaporation, and condensation of the vapor while floating above the water surface, similar to the clouds seen in the sky.

3. Precipitation: Rain;

The clear plastic wrap covering the top of the glass jar, prevents the movement of the vapor further away, such that the tiny condensed vapor gather together, to form big droplets under the plastic wrap that falls back into the jar, which is similar to the process of rainfall

The above processes are repeated as more water evaporates from the jar condenses on the plastic wrap and falls back into the jar, showing the process by which water is recycled from the lake into the atmosphere and back to the lake.
