Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is D. Halfway up the peak

Explanation:

Think of potential energy like you are a marble. If a marble is at the peak of the hill, it's potential energy is ENORMOUS because as gravity pulls it downward it will increase in speed. Halfways down the peak is about the same potential energy as the peak, although slightly less. At the end of the climb, we can assume the landscape flattens out. This means there's very little pull to make it change at all. It will continue with the speed gained from the downhill trajectory until something in its environment stops it (such as friction). When a marble is at the bottom of a large hill, the potential energy is low. It takes a lot of force to try and get up the hill, losing lots of energy

I hope this makes sense!

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy = mgh, where m is the mass of the mountain climber, g is the gravitational force and h is the height from the base.

Since m and g are constants, the climber's potential energy will be the lowest when he's at the end of the climb, at the base of the mountain. (B)

11) In a typical energy pyramid about 10% of the available energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next. Consider an
crimeas [40]

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In a typical energy pyramid the amount of energy that is being transferred is only 10% rest of the energy is lost in the form of heat.

The energy from the sun is converted in the form of chemical energy which is stored in the producers.

10 per cent of this energy is transferred to the next trophic level and rest of the energy is lost in the form of heat. This goes on, there is only a transfer of 10 % energy from the successive levels.

So, if the producers have 200 Kcal/m2/year energy the the primary consumers will have 10% of this energy which is equivalent to 20 Kcal/m2/year and then the secondary consumers will have 10 % of 20 Kcal/m2/year which is equivalent to 2 Kcal/m2/year.

A spinning turbine can only generate electricity in the form of a/an _______ current. Of all the alternative energy technologies
kiruha [24]

1. Alternating

2. Direct

3. Reservoir

4. Solar cells

5. The sun heats up the atmosphere as Earth spins, creating areas of high and low temperature. This temperature difference causes wind to start moving through convection, which can then drive a wind turbine to produce electricity.
