How long does it take for carbon to become a fossil fuel

Physics

Answer:

Millions of years.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are fuels formed by natural processes. It involves decomposition of dead and decaying animals, marine and plants for over million years. This some times take more than hundred million years to convert into fuel. This is why they are called non renewable resources of energy. The decomposition of dead plant species forms coal and decomposition animals of land and sea forms crude oil and gas.

Answer:

Conversion of carbon to fossil fuels takes hundreds of millions of years beneath the earth-crust.

Explanation:

  • Conversion of carbon to fossil fuels takes hundreds of millions of years beneath the earth-crust. Fossil fuel is formed by the anaerobic decomposition of dead remains of the plants and animals.
  • When the remains of the plants and animals get buried under the earth surface under high temperature and pressure it starts converting into fossil fuels. Coal, natural gas and petroleum are the extracts of the fossil fuel.

An airplane of mass 39,043.01 flies horizontally at an altitude of 9.2 km with a constant speed of 335 m/s relative to Earth. Wh
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

1.2 x 10¹¹ kgm²/s

Explanation:

m = mass of the airplane = 39043.01

r = altitude of the airplane = 9.2 km = 9.2 x 1000 m = 9200 m

v = speed of airplane = 335 m/s

L = Angular momentum of airplane

Angular momentum of airplane is given as

L = m v r

Inserting the values

L = (39043.01 ) (335) (9200)

L =  (39043.01 ) (3082000)

L = 1.2 x 10¹¹ kgm²/s

A 12-V battery is connected across a 100-Ω resistor. How many electrons flow through the wire in 1.0 min?
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

The quantity of charge or electron flowing the wire in the given time is 4.5 x 10¹⁹ electrons.

Explanation:

Given;

emf of the battery, V = 12 V

resistance of the resistor, R = 100-Ω

time of current flow, t = 1 min

charge of 1 electron = 1.602 x 10¹⁹ C

The current through this circuit is given by;

I = V / R

I = (12) / (100)

I = 0.12 A

The quantity of charge or electron flowing the wire in the given time is calculated as;

Q =It

where;

I is the current flowing through the wire

t is the time of current flow = 1 x 60s = 60 s

Q = 0.12 x 60

Q = 7.2 C

1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C --------------- 1 electron

7.2 C -----------------------------? electron

= \frac{7.2 }{1.602*10^{-19}} \\\\= 4.5*10^{19} \ electrons

Therefore, the quantity of charge or electron flowing the wire in the given time is 4.5 x 10¹⁹ electrons.

Before stating the problem, research is often required.<br><br> True<br> False
professor190 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is certainly true.

Explanation:

You first need to fully understand the conflict/problem before explaining it.

Most students do this when doing a research project.

For example: Let's say I had a project to explain solutions for climate change but I didn't even know what it is and how it was caused. Well of course your teacher will make you research the topic in order to represent it correctly.
