probably to show others who are foreigners seeing the fire truck name as that from another country

The word FIRE is sometimes written in Spanish and English, or English and other languages, so foreigners can know what the word is in their language.

Give two examples of chemical energy being transformed into electrical energy

julsineya [31]

It can be used to create electricity and heat and can be found in propane , jet fuel, gasoline and other products. Wood - Dry wood stores chemical energy . This chemical energy is released as the wood burns, and it is burns, and it is converted into heat, which is also called thermal energy, and light energy. ( hope this be helpful)

Answer:

Its initial position was 471 m.

Explanation:

We have,

Final position of the object is 327 m

Displacement of the object is -144 m

It is required to find its initial position. The difference of final and initial position is equal to the displacement of the object. So,

$d=\text{final position}-\text{initial position}\\\\-144=327-\text{initial position}\\\\\text{initial position}=327+144\\\\\text{initial position}=471\ m$

So, its initial position was 471 m.

A solid circular plate has a mass of 0.25 kg and a radius of 0.30 m. It starts rolling from rest at the top of a hill 10 m long

KATRIN_1 [288]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the equations related to the conservation of both kinetic of rolling objects and potential energy and the moment of inertia.

The net height from the point where it begins to roll with an inclination of 30 degrees would be

$h=Lsin30$

$h=10sin30$

$h=5m$

In the case of Inertia would be given by

$I = \frac{mR^2}{2}$

In general, given an object of mass m, an effective radius k can be defined for an axis through its center of mass, with such a value that its moment of inertia is

$I = mk^2$

$\frac{mR^2}{2}= mk^2$

$\frac{k^2}{R^2}=\frac{1}{2}$

Replacing in Energy conservation Equation we have that

Potential Energy = Kinetic Energy of Rolling Object

$mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2(1+\frac{k^2}{r^2})$

$9.8*5=\frac{1}{2}v^2(1+\frac{1}{2})$

$v^2 (1.5) = 98$

$v=8.0829m/s$

Therefore the correct answer is C.

What happens to the electric current in a wire as voltage is increased?

KATRIN_1 [288]

Ohm's law states that the electrical current (I) flowing in an circuit is proportional to the voltage (V) and inversely proportional to the resistance (R). Therefore, if thevoltage is increased, the current will increase provided the resistance of the circuit does not change.
