Answer:

Option C.

Explanation:

Oceans, is the right answer.

Hurricanes originate solely with the dissipation of hot seawater, which elevates water into the fainter environment. This wet air is then pulled up when converging winds clash and swirl upwards. At higher elevations, water vapor begins to consolidate into vapors and precipitation, discharging heat that heats the encompassing air, letting it rise as well. As the wind far above the ocean hurries upward, even further, hot humid air spirals in from adjacent the outside to restore it.

Let's practice calculating the frictional force of a skier on old "woody" skis and wet snow. The skier has a mass of 58 kg. The

Answer:

Kinetic frictional force will be equal to 56.84 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of the skier m = 58 kg

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

Coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu _k=0.1$

We have to find the kinetic frictional force

Kinetic frictional force is given by

$F_K=\mu _Kmg=0.1\times 58\times 9.8=56.84N$

So kinetic frictional force will be equal to 56.84 N

Air is heated in a glass bottle. The heat energy added to the air is 2.0 × 104 joules. What is the change in internal energy of

Liono4ka [1.6K]

The change in internal energy of the gas is $\Delta U = 2.0 \cdot 10^4 J$ .

In fact, the 1st law of thermodynamics states that the change in internal energy of a system is equal to the amount of heat given to the system (Q) plus the work done on the system (W):
$\Delta U = Q+W$
In this example, no work is done on the bottle so W=0, while the heat given to the system is $Q=2.0 \cdot 10^4 J$ , so the change in internal energy of the gas is
$\Delta U = Q = 2.0 \cdot 10^4 J$
