Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we place two objects of different temperature adjacent to each other then there will occur transfer of heat from hotter object to colder object till their temperature becomes equal.

This process is known as conduction.

Hence, when heat is being transferred from surface to the underground then it is due to the process of conduction.

Convection is defined as the process in which a fluid (liquid or gas) when heated then more dense (cooler) substance sinks ate the bottom whereas less dense (hotter) substance will rises at the top.

Radiation is defined as a process in which an electromagnetic energy will travel through space in the form of waves or particles.

Condensation is a process in which vapor state of a substance changes into liquid state.

Thus, we can conclude that heat from the surface is transferred underground by conduction.

Two astronauts (each with mass 100 kg) are drifting together through space. They are connected to each other by a rope 5 m in le

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

1000 kgm²/s, 400 J

1000 kgm²/s, 1000 J

600 J

Explanation:

m = Mass of astronauts = 100 kg

d = Diameter

r = Radius = $\frac{d}{2}$

v = Velocity of astronauts = 2 m/s

Angular momentum of the system is given by

$L=mvr+mvr\\\Rightarrow L=2mvr\\\Rightarrow L=2\times 100\times 2\times 2.5\\\Rightarrow L=1000\ kgm^2/s$

The angular momentum of the system is 1000 kgm²/s

Rotational energy is given by

$K=I\omega^2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}(mr^2)\left(\frac{v}{r}\right)^2\\\Rightarrow K=mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=100\times 2^2\\\Rightarrow K=400\ J$

The rotational energy of the system is 400 J

There no external toque present so the initial and final angular momentum will be equal to the initial angular momentum 1000 kgm²/s

$L_i=L_f\\\Rightarrow 2mv_ir_i=2mv_fr_f\\\Rightarrow v_f=\frac{v_ir_i}{r_f}\\\Rightarrow v_f=\frac{2\times 2.5}{0.5}\\\Rightarrow v_f=10\ m/s$

Energy

$E_2=mv_f^2\\\Rightarrow E_2=100\times 10\\\Rightarrow E_2=1000\ J$

The new energy will be 1000 J

Work done will be the change in the kinetic energy

$W=E_2-E\\\Rightarrow W=1000-400\\\Rightarrow W=600\ J$

The work done is 600 J

A ball bounces on the ground. How do the ball and the ground act on each other?(1 point)

liubo4ka [24]

Answer: A is your best answer.

Explanation:

It should be A because the when the ball bounces on the ground the ground will give it force to bounce again but also it wont go as high as it first did. Hope this helps:))
