QUESTION 1 -

Which of the following best describes the use of a renewable resource? (2 points)

ANSWER:

C. There are areas in California that use the heat from deep in the Earth to generate electricity.

The answer is Option C as it is the only option which refers to a renewable energy resource. The renewable source which it refers to is geothermal energy as it is heat obtained from deep within the Earth which is utilised to produce electricity. Therefore, Option C is the answer.

QUESTION 2 -

Which of the following best describes the use of a non-renewable resource? (2 points)

ANSWER:

C. Natural gas is a great alternative to electricity for cooking.

The answer is Option C as it is the only option which refers to a non-renewable energy resource. Natural gas is a non-renewable resource as it was formed from the buried remains of plants and animals who were alive a significantly long time ago, thus making them fossil fuels. As all fossil fuels are non-renewable, natural gas must be a non-renewable resource. Therefore, Option C is the answer.

QUESTION 3 -

Which of the following best describes the use of a renewable resource? (2 points)

ANSWER:

D. Solar panels are able to gather the energy from the sun and convert it into electrical energy.

The answer is Option D as it is the only option which refers to a renewable energy resource. The renewable resource it refers to is solar energy as solar panels are utilised in order to produce solar energy for electricity. Solar energy is renewable as it utilises the sun's energy in the form of heat and light energy. As the sun's energy is unlimited and renewable resources are meant to be unlimited, solar energy must be a renewable energy resource. Therefore, the answer must be Option D.

QUESTION 4 -

Select the example that best describes a renewable resource. (2 points)

ANSWER:

B. My town is powered by electricity that is generated by the energy from the flow of water through a large dam.

The answer is Option B as it is the only option which refers to a renewable energy resource. The renewable resource it refers to is hydroelectricity also known as hydropower as it utilises energy from the flow of water in a large controlled dam. Hydropower is renewable as it utilises energy from the flow if water which is an unlimited resource. As hydropower is unlimited and renewable energy is meant to be unlimited, hydropower must be a renewable resource. Therefore, the answer must be Option B.

QUESTION 5 -

Which example describes a non-renewable resource? (2 points)

ANSWER:

D. There are drilling platforms all along the coast that are used to drill for natural gas that can be used to generate electricity.

The answer is Option D as it is the only option which refers to a non-renewable energy resource. Natural gas is a non-renewable resource as it was formed from the buried remains of plants and animals who were alive a significantly long time ago, thus making them fossil fuels. As all fossil fuels are non-renewable, natural gas must be a non-renewable resource. Therefore, Option D is the answer.

A well-insulated bucket of negligible heat capacity contains 129 g of ice at 0°C.
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The final equilibrium temperature of the system is T = 12.48^oC

For the ice it would melt completely the mass that would remain is Zero

Explanation:

In the following question we are provided with

Mass of the ice M_{i} = 129 g = 0.129 kg

Mass of the steam M_s = 19 g = 0.019 kg

Initial temperature is  T_i = 0°C

Temperature of  steam  T_s = 100°C

Following the change of state of water in the question

 The energy required by ice to change to water is mathematically given as

          Q_A = M_iL_f

Where L_f is a constant known as heat of fusion  and the value is 334*10^3 J/kg

           Q_A = 0.129 *334 *10^3  = 43086 J

The energy been released when the steam changes to water is mathematically given as

            Q_B = M_s * L_v

           Where L_v is a constant known as heat of vaporization and the value is 2256*10^3J/kg

           Q_B = 0.019 * 2256*10^3 = 42864J

         The energy released when the temperature of water decrease from 100°C to 0°C is

                 Q_C = M_s *C_water (100°C)

Where C_{water} is the specific heat of water which has a value 4186J/kg \cdot K

                  Q_C = 0.019 *4186*100 = 7953.4

Looking at the values we obtained we noticed that ]

             Q_B + Q_C > Q_A

What this means is that the ice will melt

bearing in mind the conservation of energy

     looking the way at which water at different temperature were mixed according to the question

     Heat lossed by the vapor   = heat gained by ice

        Q_B + M_s *C_{water}(100-T) = Q_A + M_i C_{water} T

                                               T = \frac{Q_B+M_s *C_{water}(100^oC)-Q_A}{(M_s *C_{water})+(M_i*C_{water})}

                                               T = \frac{42864+7953.4-43086}{(0.019+0.129)(4186)}

                                              T = 12.48^oC

Give at least one fact about subatomic particles
victus00 [196]

Answer:

- Particles smaller than atoms are called subatomic particles .

- There are three famous subatomic particles, proton, neutron and electron .

- The study of sub atomic particles are called particle physics

- These particles can be divided as Brayons and Leptons

- These particles are often held together by one of the four fundamental particles ( Weak force, strong force, electromagnetic force, gravitational force).

Consider the following statement:
vovangra [49]

Answer:

The statement "The magnetic field of a magnet comes out of the north pole and goes into the south pole" is imprecise

Explanation:

This is because the zero divergence equation (∇ · B = 0 ) is valid for any magnetic field, even if it is time dependent rather than static. Physically, it means that there are no magnetic charges otherwise we would have ∇ · B ∝ ρmag instead of ∇ · B = 0. Consequently, the magnetic field lines never begin or end anywhere in space; instead they form closed loops or run from infinity to infinity.

Match the indices of refraction with the corresponding effects on the waves.
Yanka [14]

Answer:

B) waves speed up

C) waves bend away from the normal

Explanation:

The index of refraction of a material is the ratio between the  speed of light in a vacuum and the speed of light in that medium:

n=\frac{c}{v}

where

c is the speed of light in a vacuum

v is the speed of light in the medium

We can re-arrange this equation as:

v=\frac{c}{n}

So from this we already see that if the index of refraction is lower, the speed of light in the medium will be higher, so one correct option is

B) waves speed up

Moreover, when light enters a medium bends according to Snell's Law:

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2

where

n_1 ,n_2 are the index of refraction of the 1st and 2nd medium

\theta_1,\theta_2are the angles made by the incident ray and refracted ray with the normal to the interface

We can rewrite the equation as

sin \theta_2 = \frac{n_1}{n_2}sin \theta_1

So we see that if the index of refraction of the second medium is lower (n_2), then the ratio \frac{n_1}{n_2} is larger than 1, so the angle of refraction is larger than the angle of incidence:

\theta_2>\theta_1

This means that the wave will bend away from the normal. So the other correct option is

C) waves bend away from the normal
