How does the size and shape of a material impact how it ignites?

Shape affects the ignition and behavior of fire much the same as size. Flat shaped fuel is similar to small size fuel in that it has a larger surface-to-volume ratio. It dries out faster and there is also more surface area for the heat to enter, thus it will ignite more readily because it takes less heat to dry it out.

Thinner materials tend to burn faster because the fire would be able to reach oxygen better, due to the fact that more of the mass would be exposed to the oxygen

maxonik [38]

Answer: work must be done on the system  (Option A)

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics is the fundamental law of nature; it states that energy can be transferred from cold objects to hot objects only, if work is done on the system. If energy is added to the system then as a result the thermal energy would increase. Second law of thermodynamics is used to determine whether a process is spontaneous or not.  Moreover,the second law of thermodynamics is also used in refrigerators.

I do not understand the full question, however if you are wondering which way Simone and the dog will go, they will go right because the force of 34 N from the dog is higher than the force of 16 N from Simone.

Which three terms are needed to describe the energy a BASE jumper has as she falls toward the ground?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Potential energy

Kinetic energy

Gravitational energy.

Explanation:

The potential energy is the stored energy, it is the energy and object posses at rest. When the base jumper is still at rest i.e without motion, she has potential energy.

Gravitational energy this refer to the potential energy an object or body with mass posses in relation to another object due to gravity.

This is seen when the base number is still at rest and the force of gravity on the Earth acting on her.

Kinetic energy is the energy posses by an object or body in motion.

As the base jumper falls to the ground, she posses kinetic energy which is the energy in motion.
