What provides and has always provided most of Earth's energy for living things and technology?

1 answer:

6 0

Hints:
The Earth's energy does not come from eating a balanced diet,
or from ninja turtles, or from getting sleep and exercise.
There are no hamsters running on a treadmill inside the Earth.
God didn't wind up a big spring to operate the Earth.

The Sun provides, and has always provided, almost all of the energy
used on Earth. It was the energy that got stored in dead dinosaurs
to make gas and oil, and it's the energy that makes plants grow, and
gets stored in them so we can get the energy by eating the plants.

A garden hose has a radius of 0.0120 m, and water initially comes out at a speed of 2.88m/s. Dasha puts her thumb over the end ,

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

v = 12.4 [m/s]

Explanation:

With the speed and Area information, we can determine the volumetric flow.

$V=v*A\\A=\pi *r^{2}$

where:

r = radius = 0.0120 [m]

v = 2.88 [m/s]

$A=\pi *(0.0120)^{2} \\A=4.523*10^{-4} [m]\\$

Therefore the flow is:

$V=2.88*4.523*10^{-4} \\V=1.302*10^{-3} [m^{3}/s ]$

Despite the fact that you cover the inlet with the finger, the volumetric flow rate is the same.

$v=V/A\\v=1.302*10^{-3} /1.05*10^{-4} \\v=12.4[m/s]$

Two children are balanced on a seesaw that has a mass of 18.0 kg. The first child has a mass of 26.0 kg and sits 1.60 m from the

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

1.28 m

Explanation:

As shown in the diagram attached,

According to the principle of moment,

For a body at equilibrium,

Sum of clockwise moment = sum of anticlockwise moment.

Taking moment about the pivot,

W₁(1.6)+W(0.133) = W₂(x)............... Equation 1

Where W₁ = Weight of the first child, Wₓ = Weight of the seesaw, W₂ = weight of the second child, x = distance of the second child from the pivot.

But,

W = mg

Where g = 9.8 m/s², m = mass of the body

Therefore,

W₁ = 26×9.8 = 254.8 N,

Wₓ = 18×9.8 = 176.4 N

W₂ = 34.4×9.8 = 337.12 N

Substitute these values into equation 1

(254.8×1.6)+(176.4×0.133) = 337.12(x)

407.68+23.4612 = 337.12x

337.12x = 431.1412

x = 431.1412/337.12

x = 1.2789

x ≈ 1.28 m

4. Assume a multiple level queue system with a variable time quantum per queue, and that the incoming job needs 50ms to run to c

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

For the completion of incoming job it will take 50ms

First queue takes 5ms quantum time and the subsequent queue takes double of the previous question

So,

First queue T_1 = 5ms

Second queue T_2 = 2 × T_1 = 2 × 5 = 10ms

Third queue T_3 = 2 × T_2 = 2 × 10 = 20ms

Fourth queue T_4 = 2 × T_3 = 2 × 20 = 40ms

Fifth queue T_5= 2 × T_4 = 2 × 40 = 80ms.

Now, the job will be done after the fifth queue.

So, after the first queue, the job is not completed, so, we have first interruption

After the second queue, the job is not completed, so, we have second interruption

After the third queue, the job is not completed, so we have third interruption.

After the fourth queue, the job is not yet completed, so we have the fourth interruption

And in the fifth queue the job is completed, so we don't have any interruption here.

So, the job will be interrupted 4 times and it will finished on the fifth queue.
