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.

What statement is true about a spring?
snow_tiger [21]
I think B is the most correct, because logically it's harder to bend a stiffer spring than it is to bend a softer one. Also, I don't think length comes into play. So B.

What happens when you compress a gas?
8090 [49]
The density increases.
When gases are compressed, their volume decreases, and the resulting pressure increases. The temperature will change if either P or V are held constant. Since the volume decreases, then density, or m/V, increases.
P×V ~ T

Which would BEST describes what occurs when a ball is thrown against a wall? A) The ball will not bounce off the wall. B) The ba
oee [108]

Answer:

D) The ball exerts a force on the wall and the wall exerts a force back.

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that:

"When an object A exerts a force on another object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A"

In this problem, we can identify (for instance) object A with tha ball and object B with the wall. Therefore, if we apply Newton's third law, we get:

The ball (object A) exerts a force on the wall (object B), therefore the wall (object B) exerts an equal and opposite force on the ball (object A). So, option D is the correct one.

expeople1 [14]

A small boy is playing with a ball on a stationary train. If he places the ball on the floor of the train, when the train starts moving the ball moves toward the back of the train. This happened due to inertia

An object at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion unless a net external force acts on it .  

When a train starts moving forward, the ball placed on the floor  tends to fall backward is an example of inertia of rest. Due to the reason that the lower part of the ball is in contact with the surface and rest of the part is not . As the train starts moving, its lower part gets the motion as the floor starts moving but the upper part will remain as it is as it is not in contact with the floor , hence do not attain any motion due to the inertia of rest simultaneously i.e. it tends to remain at the same place.
