2 answers:

6 0

A physical change in something doesn't change what the it is. For example, if you break glass, it will still be glass. In a chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new thing is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed. For example, when you burn a log. The carbon in the log is reacting to the oxygen to create ashe and smoke

The diagram shows a charge moving into an electric field. The charge will most likely leave the electric field near which letter

Simora [160]

you haven't attached the diagram, but i assume that this diagram is what you were talking about

Answer:

near Y

Explanation:

the electric field lines goes from a positive charge to a negative charge. This means that a positive charge would move in the same direction of the field lines, while a negative charge would move in the opposite direction of the field lines. the field lines are created from +vely charged plate to -vely charged plate so the negative charged particles moves towards the lower plate which is positively charged, and opposite to the direction of field lines.

What is Hydroelectric energy used for? Use in your own words.

evablogger [386]

Hydroelectric energy, also called hydroelectric power or hydroelectricity, is a form of energy that harnesses the power of water in motion—such as water flowing over a waterfall—to generate electricity. People have used this force for millennia. Over two thousand years ago, people in Greece used flowing water to turn the wheel of their mill to ground wheat into flour.
