You are part of the designing team for a new solar thermal power plant. The plant will use thermal energy storage to produce ele
ctricity both during the day (when the sun is shining) and at night (when the sun is not shining!). The chosen storage fluid will be a salt, sodium nitrate (NaNO3). The liquid salt circulates through the concentrated solar energy collectors (mirrors) and achieves a temperature of 623 °C. It is then stored in a cylindrical tank that is 9.1 m in height and 24 m in diameter. The salt stored in the tank is then used to

Answer:
B. Newton's second law of motion
Explanation:
Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.
Mathematically, it is given by the formula;
Making acceleration the subject of formula, we have;
In this scenario, the acceleration of a baseball after it is hit by a bat depends on the mass of the ball and the net force on the ball. Thus, this example best illustrates Newton's second law of motion.
