D. A heat engine that uses heat to do work

Explanation:

A coal fired power plant is a heat engine that uses heat to do work.

A heat engine is a device that is used to convert heat energy into mechanical energy .

A heat pump uses mechanical energy to produce more heat from a lower heat sink.

  • A coal power plant produces heat by firing the coal.
  • Heat from the coal combustion heats water to steam.
  • The steam is used to drive heavy turbines
  • The turbine has mechanical energy and it then produce electricity.

lesya692 [45]
In order to make the athletic shoe to slide faster of a given surface you had to reduce the friction coefficient of the shoe with the surface.

One way to do that is to put some grease of the sole of the shoe, which undoubtedly would reduce the friction coefficient drastically and the shoe would slide more easily.

Also, if you make the sole smoother the shoe the friction coefficient would decrease and, again, the show would slide mor easily.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

the answer is d

Explanation:

from F=Q1Q2

r².

then wen both charges are doubled

F=2Q1 ×2Q2

r²

F=4Q1Q2

r²

then 4 has to be the factor multiplied by the other part of the equation for it to balance

4F=4Q1Q2

r²

so theoretically the 4 on the LHS can cancel the 4 on the RHS
