What energy transformation happening when starting a car
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

We're starting a car. We have the fuel in the engine, and when the engine starts, that fuel is converted into power to move the car. The fuel is made of chemicals, right? Propane, gasoline, so on. What kind of energy comes from chemicals? <em>Chemical energy</em>, right?

That fuel is <em>chemical energy</em>, and the energy to move the car must be <em>kinetic/mechanical</em> energy. However, that's not the <em>only</em> source of <em>mechanical energy</em>.

There's another source of <em>mechanical energy</em> here as well: we have an electric battery. What kind of energy is found in a battery? The battery has electricity, and so it has <em>electrical energy</em>. Some of that <em>electrical energy</em> turns into <em>mechanical energy</em> when the car starts up.

But the engine heats up as well, right? There's one more energy that the <em>electrical energy</em> and <em>chemical energy</em> produce here: <em>thermal energy</em>. That's the source of the heat.

I hope this makes sense for you. Have a wonderful day!

During a demonstration of the gravitational force on falling objects to her class, Sarah drops an 11 lb. bowling ball from the t
leonid [27]

The instant it was dropped, the ball had zero speed.

After falling for 1 second, its speed was 9.8 m/s straight down (gravity).

Its AVERAGE speed for that 1 second was (1/2) (0 + 9.8) = 4.9 m/s.

Falling for 1 second at an average speed of 4.9 m/s, is covered <em>4.9 meters</em>.

ANYTHING you drop does that, if air resistance doesn't hold it back.

What name is given to a fuel made from living organisms or their waste??
Anni [7]
The name given to a fuel made from living organisms or their waste is a fossil fuel. Fossil fuels, in the form of oil and coal, have been utilised by mankind for approximately 100 years in order to produce energy. Today, there is a shift to more renewable energy sources such as solar, wind or wave power.

Explain why ultra-high voltages are<br> used to carry electricity over transmission lines.
Sidana [21]
Well, let's take it the other way. If you have a rather low voltage (220 volts -- Europe -- is low) you'd get a high current, which more easily dissipates as heat, resulting in loss of energy. Using a high voltage you have a low current which could easily be transported with almost no loss.

A marble with a mass of 1.5 grams rolls at a constant rate at a constant rate of 0.50 cm/s across a table. What is the magnitude
Leno4ka [110]
Ok so momentum is the product of mass and velocity. Its SI unit is Kg m/s

The marble's velocity is 0.5 cm/s and it's mass is 1.5.

Multiply this -> 0.5 * 1.5 = 0.75 g cm/s

Usually everything in Physics is converted into SI units therefore the SI measurement of the marble is 0.00000075 Kg m/s
