No one knows yet, but Alpha Centauri is an obvious target. It's the nearest star system to our sun at 4.3 light-years away. That's about 25 trillion miles (40 trillion km) away from Eart

A mixed cost contains Select one:
-Dominant- [34]

A mixed cost contains a variable element and a fixed element.

Option a

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mixed costs are those costs that has both variable and fixed component. Example: operating cost of a machinery includes fixed costs that cannot be changed with other variable costs like fuel, insurance, depreciation, etc.

It is also named as semi-variable costs. And the formula to calculate mixed cost is as follows,

y=a+b x

where,

  • y is the "total cost "
  • a is the "fixed cost per period"
  • b is the "variable rate per unit of activity"
  • x is the "number of units of activity"

A planet is discovered orbiting the star 51 Peg with a period of four days (0.01 years). 51 Peg has the same mass as the Sun. Me
artcher [175]

Answer:

Less than Mercury's

Explanation:

According to third Kepler's law, the square of the planet's orbital period is proportional to the cube of the average orbital radius of the planet's orbit. The constant of proportionality depends only on the mass of the star, recall that 51 Peg has the same mass as the Sun. Since the orbital period of this planet is less than Mercury's, its average orbital radius is less than Mercury's.

when energy is transferred from one part of a system to another, some of the energy is lost during the transfer and cannot be us
AlladinOne [14]

Sentences A and D describe examples of energy transformation.Heat is produced when a car's tires rub against the pavement and as electricity passes across power wires, they become hotter.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of energy?</h3>

According to the law of conservation of energy, the energy of an isolated system stays unchanged throughout time.it is said to be conserved.

Energy cannot be created nor destroyed and can be transferred from one form to the other form.

The complete question is

"When energy is moved from one component of a system to another, some of the energy is lost and cannot be used as planned.

Which two statements provide examples?

A. Friction between a car's tires and the road produces heat.

B. Sunlight strikes a solar panel, generating electricity.

c. Stereo speakers emit a sound when powered by electrical energy,

D. Wind moves a turbine, generating electricity.

I E. Power lines heat up as electricity flows through them."

Some of the energy wasted during the movement of energy from one section of a system to another is heat is produced by friction between a car's tires and the road and as electricity passes via power lines, they heat up.

Hence, sentences A and D describe examples of energy transformation.
