Explanation:

All of the following are examples of ways to improve energy efficiency of heating systems, except _______.

A. Closing off rooms that aren’t in use.

B. Frequently cleaning the furnace filter.

C. Fixing cracks in the walls and floor.

D. Opening the front door in winter to filter and clean warm air

for an heating systems it is better to keep the front door shut so that all the heat energy does not escape outside.

when heat energy is within a closed system ,it can still be utilized to keep the inhabitants warm otherwise there will be an exchange with the cold from winter fall outside the air, and the heating system's efficiency will be reduced

if the distance of separation begin two objects is doubled, is the gravitational force between the objects increased or decrease

SashulF [63]

Answer:

force is decreased by a factor of 4.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's law of gravitation, the force of gravitation between the two object is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them. Now the distance is doubled, so the force between the two objects becomes one forth.

Force is decreased by a factor or 4.

A particle is moving along a projectile path where the initial height is 160 feet with an initial speed of 144 feet per second.

Leviafan [203]

Assuming Earth's gravity, the formula for the flight of the particle is:

s(t) = -16t^2 + vt + s = -16t^2 + 144t + 160. 

This has a maximum when t = -b/(2a) = -144/[2(-16)] = -144/(-32) = 9/2. 

Therefore, the maximum height is s(9/2) = -16(9/2)^2 + 144(9/2) + 160 = 484 feet.

A real spring does not oscillate forever. Instead, it eventually comes to a stop. Does this violate the law of conservation of e

ss7ja [257]

It does not violate the law of conservation of energy. The oscillation stops when the energy is lost and the energy is lost because it becomes heat that is created by the air resistance and many other forces found in the surrounding of the oscillating spring.

Object A has a mass of 100 grams. Object B has a mass of 150 grams. They are both traveling at the same velocity. What can you c

Scilla [17]

-- Momentum is (mass) x (speed).
Object B has 1.5 times as much momentum as Object A has.

-- Kinetic energy is (1/2) x (mass) x (speed) .
Object B has 1.5 times as much kinetic energy as Object A has.

-- If they would both stop long enough to get on the scale,
Object B would weigh 1.5 times as much as Object A does.
