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, <u>electric potential </u>energy changes to <u>light </u>energy and <u>sound </u>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.

AleksAgata [21]
One of the major limitations of using the ball and stick model for DNA, is that within a single double stranded segment of DNA, one would have to use many many balls to represent atoms that are present in the sugar phosphate backbone, along with all of the main atoms that compose the nitrogenous bases of DNA, we also cannot construct or show the helical form of DNA, by using balls and sticks as well.

A gaseous system undergoes a change in temperature and volume. What is the entropy change for a particle in this system if the f
jonny [76]

Answer:

<em>Entropy Change = 0.559 Times</em>

Explanation:

Entropy change is determined by the change in the micro-states of a system. As we know that the micro-states are the same as measure of disorderness between initial and final states, that's the the amount of change in micro-states determine how much of entropy has changed in the system.

Please answer ASAP .
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = gsinθ

a = 9.8sin30

a = 4.9 m/s²

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0² + 2(4.9)(10)

v² = 98

v = √98 = 9.8994949...

v = 9.9 m/s

A thin film of oil of thickness t is floating on water. The oil has index of refraction no = 1.4. There is air above the oil. Wh
kkurt [141]

Answer:

t = 120.5 nm

Explanation:

given,    

refractive index of the oil = 1.4

wavelength of the red light = 675 nm

minimum thickness of film = ?

formula used for the constructive interference

2 n t = (m+\dfrac{1}{2})\lambda

where n is the refractive index of oil

t is thickness of film

for minimum thickness

m = 0

2 \times 1.4 \times t = (0+\dfrac{1}{2})\times 675

t = \dfrac{0.5\times 675}{2\times 1.4}

        t = 120.5 nm

hence, the thickness of the oil is t = 120.5 nm
