When storm clouds produce lightening and thunder, then, potential energy changes into kinectic energy.

The clouds become negatively charged,and the ground is positively charged during a storm. So there creates a potential difference between the charged clouds and the ground. And when this becomes huge so much that it over comes the electrical insulation cover of air, the electrons jump to the ground.i.e. the potential energy changes into kinetic energy.

Answer: When storm clouds produce lightning and thunder, electric potential energy changes to light energy and sound energy.

Explanation:

A lightning occurs within cloud, between two clouds or cloud and ground whenever electric potential difference is created. Electric discharge occurs between the two electrically charged regions. The electric potential energy converts into light energy and sound energy. Lightning is oftenly accompanied by sound. Since the speed of light is much greater than speed of sound, we hear sound of lightning after seeing it.

Write a rule for the sequence. 3, -3, -9, -15. A. Start with 3 and add -6 repeatedly B. Start with -6 and add 3 repeatedly C. St

Substract two consecutive terms of the sequence to see if there is a common difference:

$\begin{gathered} (-3)-(3)=-3-3=-6 \\ (-9)-(-3)=-9+3=-6 \\ (-15)-(-9)=-15+9=-6 \end{gathered}$

As we can see, there is a common difference of -6.

Then, if a number of the sequence is given, the next one can be found by adding -6 (which is the same as subtracting 6).

Notice that the first term of the sequence is 3.

Then, the rule for the sequence is to start with 3 and add -6 repeatedly.

Therefore, the correct choice is option A) Start with 3 and add -6 repeatedly.

How many atoms of carbon would two molecules of glucose (C6H12O6) have?

Sauron [17]

Well according to the molecular formula of glucose, one molecule would have 6 carbon atoms, and thus 2 molecules of glucose would have 12 carbon atoms.

The correct response would be B. 12.
