6 0

Explanation:

"The burning of fossil fuels , oil and natural and power from nuclear power provide about 87% of the energy used in the world.

Coal, natural gas, petroleum and nuclear power are the major energy providers to the whole world. Till date we are heavily depend on them. They provide for about 87% of the total energy used in the world.

Young's Modulus refers to changes in the: a- Volume b- Length c- Body layers
bekas [8.4K]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option b.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Young's Modulus is defined as the ratio of stress acting on a substance to the amount of strain produced.

Stress is defined as force per unit area and strain is defined as proportional deformation in a material.

The equation representing Young's Modulus is:

Y=\frac{F/A}{\Delta l/l}=\frac{Fl}{A\Delta l}

where,

Y = Young's Modulus

F = force exerted by the weight

l = length of wire

A = area of cross section

\Delta l = change in length

Hence, the correct answer is Option b.

What is the temperature 32 degrees Fahrenheit in degrees Celsius? A. 0°C B. 20°C C. 10°C D. –10°C
omeli [17]
The answer would 0. The reasoning of this is because freezing point in celsius is always 0 degrees but in fahrenheit the freezing point is 32 degrees.

in a softball game, a batter hits the ball at the velocity of 27m/s and angle of 40 shown below. What is the maximum range of th
Nata [24]

Answer:

R = 73.25 m

Explanation:

We have,

Initial speed of the ball is 27 m/s

It is projected at an angle of 40 degrees

The maximum range of the ball is given by :

R=\dfrac{u^2\sin2\theta}{g}

Plugging all the values we get :

R=\dfrac{(27)^2\sin2(40)}{9.8}\\R=73.25\ m

So, the maximum range of the ball is 73.25 m

A 1.5-kg ball is throw at 10 m/s. What is the balls momentum?
alexdok [17]

Answer : The momentum of ball is, 15 kg.m/s

Explanation :

Momentum : It is defined as the motion of a moving body. Or it is defined as the product of mass of velocity of an object.

Formula of momentum is:

where,  

p = momentum  = ?

m = mass  = 1.5 kg

v = velocity = 10 m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

Therefore, the momentum of ball is 15 kg.m/s

In this example we will analyze the forces acting on your body as you move in an elevator. Specifically, we will consider the ca
dexar [7]

Answer:

The reading of the scale during the acceleration is 446.94 N

Explanation:

Given;

the reading of the scale when the elevator is at rest = your weight, w = 600 N

downward acceleration the elevator, a = 2.5 m/s²

The reading of the scale can be found by applying Newton's second law of motion;

the reading of the scale  = net force acting on your body

R = mg + m(-a)

The negative sign indicates downward acceleration

R = m(g - a)

where;

R is the reading of the scale which is your apparent weight

m is the mass of your body

g is acceleration due to gravity, = 9.8 m/s²

m = w/g

m = 600 / 9.8

m = 61.225 kg

The reading of the scale is now calculated as;

R = m(g-a)

R = 61.225(9.8 - 2.5)

R = 446.94 N

Therefore, the reading of the scale during the acceleration is 446.94 N
