Your hands get warm by a fire because chemical energy is converted into heat energy.

The wood - has chemical energy when you burn it, and then, heat waves rise to the air, which means that we went from :

Chemical energy ⇒ Heat energy

Alright, now, also think about, that energy can never be created not destroyed, so it was obviously transferred, and yet conserved.

If this doesn't make sense, please message me, or comment below. :))

I think, it must be a chemical. Because the fire is a chemical reaction. So, the chemical energy converted to heat energy.

After you pick up a spare, your bowling ball rolls without slipping back toward the ball rack with a linear speed of 2.85 m/s. T

Answer:

V' = 0.84 m/s

Explanation:

given,

Linear speed of the ball, v = 2.85 m/s

rise of the ball, h = 0.53 m

Linear speed of the ball, v' = ?

rotation kinetic energy of the ball

$KE_r = \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2$

I of the moment of inertia of the sphere

$I = \dfrac{2}{5}MR^2$

v = R ω

using conservation of energy

$KE_r = \dfrac{1}{2}( \dfrac{2}{5}MR^2)(\dfrac{V}{R})2$

$KE_r = \dfrac{1}{5}MV^2$

Applying conservation of energy

Initial Linear KE + Initial roational KE = Final Linear KE + Final roational KE + Potential energy

$\dfrac{1}{2}MV^2 + \dfrac{1}{5}MV^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}MV'^2 + \dfrac{1}{5}MV'^2 + M g h$

$0.7 V^2 = 0.7 V'^2 + gh$

$0.7\times 2.85^2 = 0.7\times V'^2 +9.8\times 0.53$

V'² = 0.7025

V' = 0.84 m/s

the linear speed of the ball at the top of ramp is equal to 0.84 m/s

Which would BEST describes what occurs when a ball is thrown against a wall? A) The ball will not bounce off the wall. B) The ba

oee [108]

Answer:

D) The ball exerts a force on the wall and the wall exerts a force back.

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that:

"When an object A exerts a force on another object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A"

In this problem, we can identify (for instance) object A with tha ball and object B with the wall. Therefore, if we apply Newton's third law, we get:

The ball (object A) exerts a force on the wall (object B), therefore the wall (object B) exerts an equal and opposite force on the ball (object A). So, option D is the correct one.

A wave traveling in water has a frequency of 500.0 Hz and a wavelength of 3.00 m. What is the speed of the wave?

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

1500 m/s

Explanation:

Recall that for a wave,

Speed = frequency x wavelength

here we are given frequency = 500 Hz and wavelength = 3m

simply substitute into above equation

Speed = 500 Hz x 3m

= 1500 m/s

How can we use thermal energy to our advantage?

devlian [24]

Answer:

One of the primary advantages of thermal power is that the generation costs are extremely low. No fuel is needed to generate the power, and the minimal energy needed to pump water to the Earth's surface can be taken from the total energy yield.
