Almost all of the energy on Earth comes from the Sun

The energy in fossil fuels originally came from the Sun

Plants convert the energy

Explanation:

The sun is the ultimate source of energy on earth and even the whole of the solar system. The sun drives and powers all external processes on earth. It produces its energy from the nuclear fusion of lighter nuclei into heavier ones.

Almost all of the energy on earth comes from the sun. A few component of the energy on the surface comes from the internal heat engine.
The energy of fossil fuels originally came from the sun. This is because, plants stores the energy in the process of photosynthesis. When they die and the energy is not released, the energy is stored as fossil fuels.
Plants in the process of photosynthesis converts the energy. Here green plants combines carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight.

a stone attached to 1m long string is moving with the speed of 5ms in a circle find the centripetal acceleration of the stone

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration of the stone is 5 m/s²

Explanation:

The length of the string to which the stone is attached, r = 1 m

The speed with which the string is rotated, v = 5 m/s

The centripetal acceleration, $a_c$ , is given as follows;

$a_c = \dfrac{v^2}{r}$

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the stone found as follows;

$a_c = \dfrac{(5 \ m/s)^2}{1 \ m} = 5 \ m/s^2$

The centripetal acceleration of the stone, $a_c$ = 5 m/s².

An object of volume 0.0882 m3 is

vfiekz [6]

The density of the fluid is 776.3 $m^{-3}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

Buoyant force is the upward pushing force whenever an object is trying to get immersed in fluid. So this is the force given by the fluid on the object which is trying to get immersed. The buoyant force is found to be directly proportional to the product of density of the object, volume of the object. And here the acceleration due to gravity will be acting as proportionality constant.

$Buoyant force = Density \times Volume \times Acceleration$

As, buoyant force is given as 671 N and volume is 0.0882 $m^{3}$ and acceleration is known as 9.8 m/ $s^{2}$ . Then density is

$\text { Density }=\frac{\text { Buoyant force }}{\text {Volume } \times \text {Acceleration}}$

Thus,

$\text { Density }=\frac{671}{0.0882 \times 9.8}=\frac{671}{0.86436}=776.296 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}$

Density is 776.3 kg $m^{-3}$ .

A 40.0 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hi.nge and its far end is supported by a cable. The angle between the beam and the c

GalinKa [24]

The magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge will be,261.12N.

To find the answer, we need to know about the tension.

<h3>How to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge?</h3>

Let's draw the free body diagram of the system using the given data.
From the diagram, we have to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge.
For that, it is given that the horizontal component of force is equal to the 86.62N, which is same as that of the horizontal component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge.

$N_x=86.62N$

We have to find the vertical component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge. For this, we have to equate the total force in the vertical direction.

$N_y=F_V=mg-Tsin59\\$
