Which is not a source of electrical energy in the United States

1 answer:

7 0

Every practical source of energy that you can imagine, as well as a few impractical ones, are used somewhere in the USA.

From whale oil in Alaska, to nuclear energy, to coal, petroleum, natural gas, solar energy, wind energy, and biomass.

Oh ! Geothermal energy and tidal energy aren't too popular, but I'll bet if you looked, you'd find these used too, SOMEwhere in the 50 states.

A ball rolls from 10 m to -25 m in 2.5 seconds. What was<br> its average velocity?<br> (Units = m/s)

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

v = -14 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial location of the ball, X₁ = 10 m

Final position of the ball, X₂ = -25 m

Time taken to travel is, t = 2.5 s

The average velocity of the ball is given by the formula,

V = X₂ - X₁ / t m/s

Substituting the values in the above equation,

V = -25 - 10 / 2.5

= -14 m/s

The negative sign in the velocity indicates that ball rolls in the opposite direction.

Hence, the average velocity of the ball is v = -14 m/s

The three forces acting on a hot-air balloon that is moving vertically are its weight, the force due to air resistance and the u

irinina [24]

Explanation :

The forces acting on hot- air balloon are:

Weight, (W)

Force due to air resistance, (F)

Upthrust force, (U)

Its weight W is acting in downward direction. The upthrust force U acts in upward direction. When the balloon is moving upward, the air resistance is in downward and vice versa.

In this case, the hot-air balloon descends vertically at constant speed.

so, $a=0$

and $F=ma=0$

so, $W = F + U$ ....................(1)

when it is ascending let the weight that it is releasing is R, so

$(W-R) + F = U$ ..........(2)

solving equation (1) and (2)

$(W-R)+F=W-F$

$R=2F$

2F is the weight of material that must be released from the balloon so that it ascends vertically at the same constant speed.
