Answer:

The answer is Radiation.

Explanation:

The phenomenon of radiation is the propagation of energy in the form of electromagnetic waves or subatomic particles through vacuum or a material medium. Solar radiation is the set of electromagnetic radiation emitted by the Sun and which reach the earth, although not all radiation reaches the Earth's surface, because the shortest ultraviolet waves are absorbed by the gases of the atmosphere. The magnitude that measures the solar radiation that reaches the Earth is the irradiance, which measures the power that per unit of surface reaches the Earth.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

<em>The best explanation is that the first person is grounded to the earth, and his/her body either draws up negative charges from the earth, or tend to conducts negative charges to the earth, depending on the charge on the balloon.</em>

Explanation:

The earth is an infinite store for charges. In the first case where the second person brings a negatively charged balloon towards the first person, the negative charges on the balloon induces the first person's body to tend to attract the negative charges on the balloon through the first person's body to the positive charges within the earth. In the second case when again a positively charged balloon is brought near the first person's hair, the positive charges on the balloon induce the first person's body into drawing up negative charges from within the earth. This charges, and their opposite induced charges, create an attractive force between the hair strands and the balloons.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Please see the attached picture for the full solution.

Since we are only concerned about the decrease in gravitational potential energy of the car, we look at the decrease in height of the car as it moves from point X to point Y, instead of the distance travelled by the car.

Determine the energy in joules of a photon whose frequency is 3.55 x10^17 hz
asambeis [7]
By using the Plancks-Einstein equation, we can find the energy;
E = hf
where h is the plancks constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴
f = frequency = 3.55 x 10¹⁷hz
E = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴) x (3.55 x 10¹⁷)
E = 2.354 x 10⁻¹⁶J
