Answer:

1101.96 J

Explanation:

Potential energy at top = mgh = 24*10*5 = 1200J

Kinetic energy at bottom = 1/2*m*v² = 0.5*24*(2.8)²= 94.08 J

Loss of energy = 1200 J - 98.04 J

                         = 1101.96 J

Thermal energy due to friction =1101.96 J

When does a falling object reach terminal velocity?
Ratling [72]

At some speed, the drag or force of resistance will equal the gravitational pull on the object. At this point the object ceases to accelerate and continues falling at a constant speed called the terminal velocity (also called settling velocity).

A 50 Ohm resistance causes a current of 5 milliamps to flow through a circuit connected to a battery. What is the power in the c
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:0.00125 watts

Explanation:

resistance=50 ohms

Current=5 milliamps

Current=5/1000 milliamps

Current =0.005 amps

power=(current)^2 x (resistance)

Power=(0.005)^2 x 50

Power=0.005 x 0.005 x 50

Power=0.00125 watts

The chart below shows the average surface temperature or temperature range for each of the eight planets.
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

A) Earth and the other inner planets have higher average surface temperatures than the outer planets.

Explanation:

the earth and the other inner planets have higher average surface temperatures than the outer planets.

The reason for this response is due to the distance between the sun and the respective planet, the source of energy generation is the sun and the only way in which the temperature increase of each planet is guaranteed is by radiation, the further away a planet is from its star, its temperature will decrease. Although it is also important to highlight the atmospheric composition of the planet if this planet in its stratosphere has high density clouds that do not allow the entry of solar radiation, the temperature of the planet's surface will not increase, independent of the distance from the sun, but these are more complex cases where specialists in that area enter to perform a study in detail.
