Answer:
option (E) 1,000,000 J
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of the suspension cable, m = 1,000 kg
Distance, h = 100 m
Now,
from the work energy theorem
Work done by the gravity = Work done by brake
or
mgh = Work done by brake
where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 10 m/s²
or
Work done by brake = 1000 × 10 × 100
or
Work done by brake = 1,000,000 J
this work done is the release of heat in the brakes
Hence, the correct answer is option (E) 1,000,000 J
Answer:
C. Chemical energy
Explanation:
The different types of energy listed in this question are:
A) Electrical energy: it is the energy related to the flow of electrical charges (current)
B) Nuclear energy: it is the energy contained in the nuclei of the atoms, and released during nuclear reactions
C) Chemical energy: it is the energy contained in the bonds between molecules, and it is released during chemical reactions
D) Thermal energy: it is the energy associated with the motion of molecules
Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to transform the light energy (coming from the Sun) into chemical energy. In fact, in this process, plants absorb CO2 (from the atmosphere) and solar energy (from the light), and they convert them into sugars (glucose) and oxygen. Therefore, the initial energy coming as solar energy is converted into energy of the bonds of the molecules of glucose (so, chemical energy).
So, the correct option is C).
Answer:
c
Explanation:
Earth has a gravitational force which pulls objects towards the center of the earth.
The absolute refractive index is equal to the speed of light of the wave in air divided by the speed of light in the second medium. This means that it is equal to 3 x10^8 / 1.71 x10^8. This means the answer is 1.75
