Answer:

By electromagnetic waves.

Explanation:

The sun transfers heat to earth via electromagnetic waves  in twomajor  ways:

Radiation- this is the transfer of energy by invisible electromagnetic ways.

Convection-The radiant sun energy warms the atmosphere and becomes heat energy. This transfer of heat through movement of fluids or usually air is called convection.

What do the length of the cord and gravity determine for a pendulum?
rusak2 [61]

Answer:  C

Period/ Period of the pendulum.

Content:  

Simple pendulum is a small diameter bob which is suspended from light cord or string. The string is strong enough to stretch.

Pendulums are quiet common in use such as clocks, swings etc.,

From the simple pendulum we can find conditions under which it performs simple harmonic motion and we can also derive the expressions for Period of pendulum, frequency etc.

<em>Period of a pendulum/Time period is given by the following expression</em>

<em>               </em><em> T =2π.√(L/g) seconds </em>

<em>                 </em><em>T = period of pendulum in seconds</em>

<em>                 L = Length of the string/cord in meters</em>

<em>                 g = gravitational force in m/s²   ( g = 9.8 m/s² )</em>

<em>Period of pendulum is independent on mass of the bob.</em>

<em>So, The relation between length of the cord and gravity is used to determine the period of pendulum</em>

Resistor A has twice the resistance of resistor B. The two are connected in series and a potential difference is maintained acro
Ainat [17]

Answer:

<em>The thermal energy dissipated in A would be twice that in B</em>

Explanation:

Resistor B (RB)= R

Resistor A (RA)= 2 R

When they are connected in series the equivalent Resistance in the circuit would be;

Equivalent resistance = RA +RB = R + 2 R = 3 R;

From ohms law I = V/R

I = V/3 R

Now the thermal energy is the power dissipated by the circuit and can be obtained thus;

P =I^{2}R

Then,

P_{A} = (\frac{V}{3R}) ^{2} *2 R\\\\P_{A}  = \frac{V^{2} }{9R^{2} } *2R\\\\P_{A} = \frac{2}{9}( \frac{V^{2} }{R}) \\\\P_{B} = (\frac{V}{3R}) ^{2} * R\\\\P_{B}  = \frac{V^{2} }{9R^{2} } *R\\\\P_{B} = \frac{1}{9}( \frac{V^{2} }{R})

Therefore Pa : Pb = 2: 1, this means that the thermal energy dissipated in A would be twice that in B

Locate the polyatomic ion in the compound CaCO3 <br> Ca <br> 0 <br> CO3 <br> C
dimaraw [331]

CO₃

Explanation:

The polyatomic ion in the compound CaCO₃ is CO₃.

A polyatomic ion is an ion that is made up of more than one atom that has singular property.

They are usually called radicals.

    CaCO₃ ⇒  Ca²⁺  + CO₃²⁻

CO₃²⁻ is a polyatomic ion because it is made up of more than one atom.

The CO₃²⁻ is called a carbonate group.

It is made up of:

  • one atom of carbon
  • 3 atoms of oxygen
  • a net charge of 2-
