Answer: edge 2020

A number of energy transformations occur when water that is stored behind a dam is changed into electrical energy. For each step listed, identify the energy transformation.

Lake water flows downward through tunnels.

✔ potential to kinetic

Flowing water turns turbines.

✔ kinetic to mechanical

Turbines generate electricity.

✔ mechanical to electrical

Answer:

D. As water flows through the channels toward the turbines, it has kinetic energy. This is changed to mechanical energy as the water turns the turbines. Then the mechanical energy of the turbines is changed to electrical energy by the generator.

Explanation:

I hope this helps. :)

Tails of phospholipids that don't like water
densk [106]
Those tails are called hydrophobic. You can note the etymology: hydro= water, phobi = fear, aversion, dislike.

Phospholipds' tail is a long non polar chain, made of Carbon and Hydorgens, that rejects water (a polar solvent) and is attracted to non-polar compounds (oil for example).  That is why that tails can atract dirt.

Uranium has atomic number 92. Its most common isotope is 238U, but the form used in nuclear bombs and nuclear power plants is 23
Yakvenalex [24]

Explanation:

Atomic Number = Number of protons

Mass Number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

Isotopes are simply atoms of an element with the same number of protons and different number of neutrons.

First Isotope -- 238U

Number of neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

Number of neutrons =  238 - 92 = 146

Second Isotope -- 235U

Number of neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

Number of neutrons =  235 - 92 = 143

A student made a sketch of a potential energy diagram to represent a reaction with a -^H
OLga [1]

Answer: It’s correct because it’s showing an exothermic reaction. x is the reactants and y is the products.

Explanation: -ΔH means the reaction is exothermic and releasing heat. This lowers the potential energy.
