Why do helium balloons float? Talk about density of atoms and compare to elements in the air.

The helium balloon displaces an amount of air. As long as the weight of the helium balloon fabric is lighter than the air it displaces, the balloon will float in the air. It turns out helium is a lot lighter than air.

When fuel and air are compressed in the compression stroke, ...... a. each molecule of fuel is heated to its flash point b. each
alexira [117]

None of the choices is an appropriate response.

There's no such thing as the temperature of a molecule.  Temperature and
pressure are both outside-world manifestations of the energy the molecules
have.  But on the molecular level, what it is is the kinetic energy with which
they're all scurrying around.

When the fuel/air mixture is compressed during the compression stroke,
the temperature is raised to the flash point of the mixture.  The work done
during the compression pumps energy into the molecules, their kinetic
energy increases, and they begin scurrying around fast enough so that
when they collide, they're able to stick together, form a new molecule,
and release some of their kinetic energy in the form of heat.

how much energy must be transferred to a normal incandescent bulb (efficiency 0.05) for it to transfer 9J of energy by light?
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Revise energy transfers and use sankey diagrams to calculate the efficiency of these conversions with BBC ... Efficiency is a measure of how much useful energy is converted. Part of ... This is the Sankey diagram for a typical filament lamp: 100 joules of electrical energy is converted to 10 joules of light energy and 90 joules.
