Which describes why the sun is a renewable resource? The sun creates biomass. The sun is continuously releasing energy. The sun

does not cause pollution.

Fynjy0 [20]3 years ago
6 0

Renewable source means that it can never run out or run out in a long time. In this case the sun is expected to shine for about five billion years because of the high amount of hydrogen that is stored in its core. So the answer should be "The sun is continuously releasing energy". This answer is the best because there are many other renewable resources on earth that can cause pollution.

Ships A and B leave port together. For the next two hours, ship A travels at 40.0 mph in a direction 35.0° west of north while t
kompoz [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Ship A velocity is 40 mph and is traveling 35 west of north

Therefore in 2 hours it will travel 40\times 2=80 miles

thus its position vector after two hours is

r_A=-80sin35\hat{i}+80cos35\hat{j}

similarly B travels with 20 mph and in 2 hours

=20\times 2=40 miles Its position vector[tex]r_B=40sin80\hat{i}+40cos80\hat{j}

Thus distance between A and B  is

r_{AB}=\left ( -40sin80-80sin35\right )\hat{i}+\left ( 80cos35-40cos80\right )\hat{j}

|r_{AB}|=\sqrt{\left ( -40sin80-80sin35\right )^2+\left ( 80cos35-40cos80\right )^2}

|r_{AB}|=103.45 miles

Velocity of A

v_A=-40sin35\hat{i}+40cos35\hat{j}

Velocity of B

v_B=20sin80\hat{i}+20cos80\hat{j}

Velocity of A w.r.t B

v_{AB}=v_A-v_B

v_{AB}=\left ( -20sin80-40sin35\right )\hat{i}+\left ( 40cos35-20cos80\right )\hat{j}

The density of gasoline is 730 kg/m3 at 0°C. Its average coefficient of volume expansion is 9.60 10-4(°C)−1. Assume 1.00 gal of
kipiarov [429]

Answer: 0.4911 kg

Explanation:

We have the following data:

\rho_{0\°C}= 730 kg/m^{3} is the density of gasoline at 0\°C

\beta=9.60(10)^{-4} \°C^{-1} is the average coefficient of volume expansion

We need to find the extra kilograms of gasoline.

So, firstly we need to transform the volume of gasoline from gallons to m^{3}:

V=8.50 gal \frac{0.00380 m^{3}}{1 gal}=0.0323 m^{3} (1)

Knowing density is given by: \rho=\frac{m}{V}, we can find the mass m_{1} of 8.50 gallons:

m_{1}=\rho_{0\°C}V

m_{1}=(730 kg/m^{3})(0.0323 m^{3})=23.579 kg (2)

Now, we have to calculate the factor f by which the volume of gasoline is increased with the temperature, which is given by:

f=(1+\beta(T_{f}-T_{o})) (3)

Where T_{o}=0\°C is the initial temperature and T_{f}=21.7\°C is the final temperature.

f=(1+9.60(10)^{-4} \°C^{-1}(21.7\°C-0\°C)) (4)

f=1.020832 (5)

With this, we can calculate the density of gasoline at 21.7\°C:

\rho_{21.7\°C}=730 kg/m^{3} f=(730 kg/m^{3})(1.020832)

\rho_{21.7\°C}=745.207 kg/m^{3} (6)

Now we can calculate the mass of gasoline at this temperature:

m_{2}=\rho_{21.7\°C}V (7)

m_{2}=(745.207 kg/m^{3})(0.0323 m^{3}) (8)

m_{2}=24.070 kg (9)

And finally calculate the mass difference \Delta m:

\Delta m=m_{2}-m_{1}=24.070 kg-23.579 kg (10)

\Delta m=0.4911 kg (11) This is the extra mass of gasoline

Two gliders are on a frictionless, level air track. Both gliders are free to move. Initially, glider A moves to the right and gl
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The change in momentum of both objects is the same but in opposite direction.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The momentum of the system is calculated as the sum of the momentums of each glider. The momentum of the system is conserved if no external force is acting on the objects (as in this case). That means that the initial momentum of the system is equal to the final momentum of the system.

The momentum of each glider is calculated as follows:

p = m · v

Where:

p = momentum.

m = mass of the glider.

v = velocity.

The momentum of the system for glider A and B can be calculated as follows:

initial momentum = mA · vA + mB · vB

Where:

mA and vA = mass and velocity of glider A

mB and vB = mass and velocity of glider B

Initially, glider B is at rest so that vB = 0. Then, the initial momentum of the system is:

initial momentum = mA · vA

The final momentum of the system is calculated as follows:

final momentum = mA · vA´ + mB · vB´

Where vA´ and vB´ are the final velocities of glider A and B respectively.

We know that mB = 4mA and that vA´ is negative. The the final momentum will be:

final momentum = -mA · vA´ + 4mA · vB´

Since initial momentum = final momentum:

mA · vA = -mA · vA´ + 4mA · vB´

mA · vA + mA · vA´ = 4mA · vB´

<u>vA + vA´ = 4 vB´</u>

<u />

The change in momentum of glider A (ΔpA) is calculated as follows:

ΔpA = final momentum - initial momentum

ΔpA =  -mA · vA´ - mA · vA = -mA (vA + vA´) = -4mA · vB´

The change in momentum of glider B (ΔpB) is calculated as follows:

ΔpB = final momentum - initial momentum

ΔpB = 4mA · vB´ - 0 = 4mA · vB´

Then, the change in momentum of both objects is the same but in opposite direction. That´s why the momentum is conserved.

A lemon with mass 0.3 kg falls out of a tree from a height of 1.8 m. How much mechanical energy does the lemon have just before
Zina [86]
Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. It can either be kinetics or potential. In this problem you know it starting position so you can calculate it's potential energy (PE):

<span>PE=mass∗gravity∗height=0.3kg∗9.8m/s2∗1.8m=?

</span>The answer will typically be given in joules:

1J=kg∗m2s2 Could be wrong...  But I believe it is 5.3...? as a final product.
