Answer: When coal is burned, chemical potential energy is transformed into thermal energy, light energy, and sound energy. Only the thermal energy is used for electricity production. Light and sound energy dissipate into the environment, immediately reducing efficiency.
Hope this helps.
True
Explanation:
It is correct to say that the biosphere includes all of the fish that are in the ocean. Even though the ocean is part of the hydrosphere.
The biosphere includes all life form on earth wherever they may dwell from deep abyss to the high atmosphere.
The different spheres on earth are interacting with one another and they depend on each other.
Just like the earth systems, the spheres of the earth relates with each other. Even the ocean is contained in the geosphere.

Yes it could, but you'd have to set up the process very carefully.
I see two major challenges right away:
1). Displacement of water would not be a wise method, since rock salt
is soluble (dissolves) in water. So as soon as you start lowering it into
your graduated cylinder full of water, its volume would immediately start
to decrease. If you lowered it slowly enough, you might even measure
a volume close to zero, and when you pulled the string back out of the
water, there might be nothing left on the end of it.
So you would have to choose some other fluid besides water ... one in
which rock salt doesn't dissolve. I don't know right now what that could
be. You'd have to shop around and find one.
2). Whatever fluid you did choose, it would also have to be less dense
than rock salt. If it's more dense, then the rock salt just floats in it, and
never goes all the way under. If that happens, then you have a tough
time measuring the total volume of the lump.
So the displacement method could perhaps be used, in principle, but
it would not be easy.
<span>Transmutation
is the process of changing the substance, tangible or not, from one form to the
other. It means the transformation of one element in the periodic table into
another by one or a series of nuclear decays or reactions. One type of transmutation
is nuclear transmutation. Nuclear transmutation is the conversion of one
chemical element or isotope into another though nuclear reactions or nuclear
decay. Second type of transmutation is artificial transmutation. Artificial transmutation
occur in machinery that uses nough energy to cause changes in the nuclear
structure of the elements.</span>
