C. kinetic is correct. Light from the sun heats Earth's atmosphere. When the air becomes warmer, it expands. Kinetic energy it increases to cause this expansion. Picture shows to kinetic energy:

Hope it helped you, and have a great day.

planet a has twice the mass of planet b. from this info what can we conclude about the acceleration due to gravity at the surfac
tangare [24]

Answer: acceleration due to gravity of planet a would be twice that of planet b. Given that the radius are thesame.

Explanation:

Acceleration due to gravity is as a result of the gravitational force of attraction of a planet to its centre.

g = GM/r^2

Where;

g = acceleration due to gravity

G = gravitational constant

M = mass of planet

r = radius of planet

Given that the two planet have the same radius, if the mass of planet a is twice the mass of planet b the the acceleration due to gravity of planet a would be twice that of planet b, because acceleration due to gravity is directly proportional to the mass of the planet.

How long was a 60 W light bulb turned on if it used a total of 580 J of energy?
icang [17]
Here's the tool you need.  You can't answer the question without this:

           "1 watt"
means
           "1 joule of energy, generated, used, or moved, every second".

So      60 watts  =  60 joules per second

           Total energy generated,
            used, or moved                  = (power) x (time).

                                     580 joules  =  (60 watts) x (time)

Divide each side
by  (60 watts):              Time  =  (580 joules) / (60 joules/sec) 

                                               =  (9 and 2/3)  seconds  .

A vibrating object produces periodic waves with a wavelength of 53 cm and a frequency of 15 Hz. How fast do these waves move awa
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

v = 7.95 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of a wave, \lambda=53\ cm=0.53\ m

Frequency of a wave, f = 15 Hz

We need to find the speed of the wave. The speed of a wave is given by :

v=f\lambda\\\\v=15\ Hz\times 0.53\ m\\\\v=7.95\ m/s

So, the wave move with a speed of 7.95 m/s.
