Fossil Fuels:

Coal and Oil

How they are formed:

Coal is formed from big plants, from a long time ago. When the big plants died, they formed layers at the bottom of swamps and the dirt began to pile up and it formed Coal.

Oil is a fossil fuel that has been formed from a large amount tiny plants and animals such as algae and zooplankton.

An object is moving with a constant velocity of 278 m/s. How long will it take it to travel 7500 m, using the formula Delta X=Vt
rusak2 [61]
If the velocity is constant then the acceleration of the object is zero.
a=0 (m/s^2)
Thus when we apply the equation
\Delta X=vt+(at^2/2)
It remains
\Delta X =vt
or equivalent
t=(\Delta X/v) =7500/278 =26.98 (seconds)

A skydiver jumps from an airplane that is moving at 50 meters per second at a height of 1,000 meters what describes the skydiver
kkurt [141]

Answer:

11060M  Joules, where M is the mass of the diver in kg

Explanation:

Mass of the skydiver missing, we're assuming it's M.

It's total energy is the sum of the contribution of his kinetic energy (K)- since he's moving at 50 m/s, and it's potential energy (U), since he's subject to earth gravity.

Energy is the sum of the two, so E = K+U= \frac 12 M v^2 + Mgh = M (\frac 12 \cdot 50^2 + 9.81\cdot 1000) = M ( 1250 + 9810) = 11060\cdot M

Scientists studying an anomalous magnetic field find that it is inducing a circular electric field in a plane perpendicular to t
bija089 [108]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Scientists studying an anomalous magnetic field find that it is inducing a circular electric field in a plane perpendicular to the magnetic field. The electric field strength 1.5 m from the center of the circle is 7 mV/m.

At what rate is the magnetic field changing?

Answer:

the magnetic field changing at the rate of 9.33 m T/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Electric field E = 7 mV/m

radius r = 1.5 m

Now, from Faraday law of induction;

∫E.dl = d∅/dt

E∫dl = A( dB/dt )

E( 2πr ) = πr² ( dB/dt )

( 0.007 ) = (r/2) ( dB/dt )

( 0.007 ) = 0.75 ( dB/dt )

dB/dt = 0.007 / 0.75

dB/dt = 0.00933 T/s

dB/dt = ( 0.00933 × 1000) m T/s

dB/dt = 9.33 m T/s

Therefore, the magnetic field changing at the rate of 9.33 m T/s

If you run at 8m/s for 15 minutes how far will you go
sashaice [31]

Answer: 7200 m

Explanation: The solution is, first convert 15 minutes to seconds.

15 mins x 60 s / 1 min = 900 s

Use the formula for speed which is v= d/t then derive for d.

d = vt

= 8 m/s ( 900s)

= 7200 m
