Answer:

D: 1 Percent

Explanation:

According to the circle graph, only 1 percent of all the electricity in the United States is generated using solar energy. The reason for this is because currently solar cells are expensive to build and maintain. As solar energy becomes cheaper to use, it will most likely become a more popular source of electrical energy. ( this came right of study island )

The correct answer is - D. 1 percent.

The United States are the biggest consumer of electricity in the world. Because of that the United States are using multiple different sources in order to satisfy the demand for the electricity. The solar energy though accounts for only 1% of the total amount of produced electricity in the country and that is concerning. The biggest concern of course is the environmental one as the majority of the electricity is produced by sources that are polluting the environment. The other concern is that the United States are not using their potential in gaining more electricity from the solar radiation when taken in account that they have very large areas in the country that have a lot of intense solar radiation and clear skies throughout most of the year.

Kinetic Energy

=>It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity.

Potential Energy 

=>potential energy is the energy held by an

 object because of its position relative to other

 objects, stresses within itself, its electric

 charge, or other factors.

<h2>Difference:</h2>

=>Potential energy is a stored energy on the other hand kinetic energy is the energy of an object or a system's particle in Motion.

How has psychology developed from its prescientific roots in early understandings of mind and body to the beginnings of modern

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

By the experiences, ideas of origin, power and modern empiricism.

Explanation:

The route of the psychology has been recorded by the history of India, Middle East, Europe and China. The Confucius and Buddha focused on the ideas origin and the power. The ancient Hebrews, Aristotle and Pluto tells the idea whether the body with the mind is connected or it is distinct and this connection or distinct idea is the result of experiences.

Locke offers his theories about the mind that mind as the blank state, on which the experience writes. The modern empiricism idea has been developed by Bacon and Locke

Now assume that Eq. 6-14 gives the magnitude of the air drag force on the typical 20 kg stone, which presents to the wind a vert

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

362.41 km/h

Explanation:

F = Force

m = Mass = 84 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

C = Drag coefficient = 0.8

ρ = Density of air = 1.21 kg/m³

A = Surface area = 0.04 m²

v = Terminal velocity

F = ma

$F=\frac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow mg=\frac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\frac{mg}{\rho CA}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\frac{20\times 9.81}{1.21\times 0.8\times 0.04}}\\\Rightarrow v=100.66924\ m/s$
