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

Physics
2 answers:
Soloha48 [4]3 years ago

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.

The engine in an imaginary sports car can provide constant power to the wheels over a range of speeds from 0 to 70 miles per hou
puteri [66]

Answer:

t=5.3687\ s  is the time taken by the car to accelerate the desired range of the speed from zero at full power.

Explanation:

Given:

Range of speed during which constant power is supplied to the wheels by the car is 0\ mph\ to\ 70\ mph.

  • Initial velocity of the car, v_i=0\ mph
  • final velocity of the car during the test, v_f=32\ mph=14.3052\ m.s^{-1}
  • Time taken to accelerate form zero to 32 mph at full power, t=1.2\ s
  • initial velocity of the car, u_i=0\ mph
  • final desired velocity of the car, u_f=64\ mph=28.6105\ m.s^{-1}

Now the acceleration of the car:

a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}

a=\frac{14.3052-0}{1.2}

a=11.921\ m.s^{-1}

Now using the equation of motion:

u_f=u_i+a.t

64=0+11.921\times t

t=5.3687\ s is the time taken by the car to accelerate the desired range of the speed from zero at full power.

La ecuación de la posición de una esferita está dada por: r(t)=(2.Cos(πt) i-3.Sen(πt) j) (m) ¿Cuál es la velocidad de la esferit
katovenus [111]

Answer:

v = (-4.44 i^ + 6.66 j^ )  m/s, a_average =( 0 i^ -2π j^) m/s²

Explanation:

The expression left corresponds to an oscillatory movement (MAS), the speed is defined by

         v = dr / dt

the function of position

         r = 2 cos πt  i^  + 3 sin πt  j^

let us note that it is a movement in two dimensions

let's perform the derivative

          v = -2π sin πt  i^  + 3π cos πt  j^

we evaluate this expression for t = 0.25 s, remember that the angle is in radians

          v = -2π sin (π 0.25) i^ + 3π cos (π 0.25) j^

           v = (-4.44 i^ + 6.66 j^ )  m/s

To calculate the mean acceleration we use the expression

           a = (v_{f} - v_{o}) / Δt

 

indicates that the time is the first 3 s

       

we look for the initial velocity t = 0 s

           v₀ = 0 i ^ + 3π j ^

         

we look for the fine velocity, t = 3 s

          v_f = - 2π sin (π 3) + 3π cos (π 3) j ^

          v_f = 0 i ^ - 3π j ^

we calculate the average acceleration

            Δt = (3 -0) = 3 s

           a_average = (0-0) / 3 i ^ + (-3π - 3π) / 3

           a_average = (0 i ^ -2π j ^ ) m/s²

A,b, e are complete. Help on the others would be so appreciated!!
bixtya [17]

Answer:

serie Ceq=0.678 10⁻⁶ F  and the charge Q = 9.49 10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

Let's calculate all capacity values

a) The equivalent capacitance of series capacitors

    1 / Ceq = 1 / C1 + 1 / C2 + 1 / C3 + 1 / C4 + 1 / C5

    1 / Ceq = 1 / 1.5 + 1 / 3.3 + 1 / 5.5 + 1 / 6.2 + 1 / 6.2

    1 / Ceq = 1 / 1.5 + 1 / 3.3 + 1 / 5.5 + 2 / 6.2

    1 / Ceq = 0.666 + 0.3030 +0.1818 +0.3225

    1 / Ceq = 1,147

    Ceq = 0.678 10⁻⁶ F

b) Let's calculate the total system load

   Dv = Q / Ceq

   Q = DV Ceq

   Q = 14 0.678 10⁻⁶

   Q = 9.49 10⁻⁶ C

In a series system the load is constant in all capacitors, therefore, the load in capacitor 5.5 is Q = 9.49 10⁻⁶ C

c) The potential difference

   ΔV = Q / C5

   ΔV = 9.49 10⁻⁶ / 5.5 10⁻⁶

   ΔV = 1,725 ​​V

d) The energy stores is

    U = ½ C V²

    U = ½ 0.678 10-6 14²

    U = 66.4 10⁻⁶ J

e) Parallel system

   Ceq = C1 + C2 + C3 + C4 + C5

   Ceq = (1.5 +3.3 +5.5 +6.2 +6.2) 10⁻⁶

   Ceq = 22.7 10⁻⁶ F

f) In the parallel system the voltage is maintained

   Q5 = C5 V

   Q5 = 5.5 10⁻⁶ 14

   Q5 = 77 10⁻⁶ C

g) The voltage is constant V5 = 14 V

h) Energy stores

   U = ½ C V²

   U = ½ 22.7 10-6 14²

   U = 2.2 10⁻³ J

Why doe cups break in the winter?
eimsori [14]

Answer: Glass may break at low temperatures, but this is because the contents freeze and their expansion cause the glass to crack (if the cap does not come off). ... Hot temperatures can cause the glass to break when the bottle is subject to excessive thermal variations. hope this helps can u give me brainliest
