Answer:

The correct answers are

(a) It decreases to 1/3 L

(ii) is (c) It is constant

Explanation:

to solve this, we list out the number of knowns and unknowns so as to determine the correct equation to solve the problem

The given variables are as follows

Initial volume V1 = 1L

V2 = Unknown

Initial Temperature T1 = 300K

let us assume that the balloon is perfectly elastic

At 300K the balloon is filled and it stretches to maintain 1 atmosphere

at 100K the content of the balloon cools reducing the excitement of the gas content which also reduces the pressure, however, the balloon being perfectly elastic, contracts to maintain the 1 atmospheric pressure, hence the answer to (ii) is (c) It is constant,

For (i) since we know that the pressure of the balloon is constant

by Charles Law V1/T1 =V2/T2

or V2 = (V1/T1)×T2 =\frac{1L}{300K}× 100K= \frac{1}{3} × L = L/3 hence the correct answer to (i) is 1/3L

Solar energy is: expensive renewable inefficient during winter all of the above
creativ13 [48]

Solar energy is free and renewable.  

Its efficiency is determined by the photovoltaic or heat-exchanging equipment used, and the efficiency of the infrastructure built to interconnect them.  None of that depends on the time of the year.  For a given amount of solar energy absorbed by the collector, the amount of useful output energy doesn't change with the season.

• Be able to identify the forms of kinetic vs. potential energy, and to list some forms of each. • Be able to state the Law of C
schepotkina [342]

Answers and Explanation:

Forms of Kinetic energy

  • Translational kinetic energy
  • Rotational kinetic energy
  • Vibrational kinetic energy

Forms of Potential energy

  • Gravitational potential energy
  • Electrostatic potential energy
  • Elastic potential energy
  • chemical potential energy

Energy efficiency is a measure of the amount of energy conserved in a process. It is the ratio of the output energy to the input energy.

Differences between renewable and non renewable energy

  • Renewable energy can replenish themselves by recycling and replacement while non-renewable energy cannot
  • Renewable energy are continuously available while non renewable energy are exhausted
  • Renewable energy has low carbon emission and hence environment friendly while non renewable energy has high carbon emission and not environmental friendly

Sources of renewable energy

Solar energy.

Wind energy.

Hydro energy.

Tidal energy.

Geothermal energy.

Biomass energy.

Sources of non-renewable energy

Coal

Petroleum

Natural gas

Distribution of energy consumption in the US by energy sector

Petroleum = 36.2 %

Natural gas = 28%

Coal = 13.9%

Renewable energy = 11.0%

Nuclear electric power = 8.4%

Most of the energy consumed by the United States is non-renewable

Electricity is a secondary source of energy. It is derived from the conversion of primary sources

A secondary source of energy is a derivative from the transformation of primary sources of energy

It takes 120 minutes for a man to ride his bicycle up the road to Alpe d'Huez in France. The vertical height of the climb is 1,1
Greeley [361]
First solve the potential energy of the biker. using the fomula:
PE = mgh
where m  is the mass of the object
g is the acceleration due to gravity ( 9.81 m/s2)
h is the height

PE = 96 kg ( 1120 m ) ( 9.81 m/s2)
PE = 1054771.2 J
then power = Work / time
P = 1054771.2 J / ( 120 min ) ( 60 s / 1 min)
P = 146.5 W
