<h2>Answer: Atomic bomb </h2>

An atomic bomb is a device that has been used as a nuclear weapon by means of nuclear fission (separation of a heavy nucleus into lighter nuclei). It should be noted that there are also devices that work with nuclear fusion (the union of two nuclei) but until now there are no records of their use for war purposes.

This type of fission bombs release a large amount of energy (in the form of heat and radiation of all wavelengths, including dangerous ionizing radiation) by provocating a sustained chain reaction, after which convective processes (transmission of heat through the air) are produced, causing its characteristic mushroom shape with the expansive wave and destroying everything in its path.

The picture below shows a person exploring an underwater cave in Florida.
lubasha [3.4K]
Underwater caves in Florida are primarily formed due to the abundance of limestone layers just situated below the ground, forming the "Floridan Aquifer." Layers of these limestones are believed to be thousands of meters thick. When rainwater is being seeped into the ground, it softens the calcite present in limestones due to its acidic nature until it is dissolved. This leads to the formation of cavities and tunnels which eventually becomes an interconnected network of passages over time. As water continues flowing through these passages, which builds up from the bottom of these cavernous empty spaces, underwater caves are then formed. Therefore, the first choice is the answer.

A laptop can convert 400J of electrical energy into a 240J of light and sound. What is the efficiency? Where does the rest of th
Blababa [14]
Efficiency = (Wanted) energy out ÷ energy in × 100

Energy in = 400J
Wanted Energy out = 240J

Energy cannot be used up, only transferred, so the remaining energy is most likely to be transferred into unwanted energy (loss of energy) such as heat energy.

Efficiency = 240 ÷ 400 × 100
Efficiency = 0.6 × 100
Efficiency = 60%

The carbon cycle is powered by which two processes?
Arada [10]

Answer:

the answer is the last one

Explanation:

here is the definition:

(i know how to explain the answer, its merely unnecessary being that there is an offical definition.)

<em>the series of processes by which carbon compounds are interconverted in the environment, involving the incorporation of carbon dioxide into living tissue by photosynthesis and its return to the atmosphere through respiration, the decay of dead organisms, and the burning of fossil fuels.</em>
