Answer: Energy consumption and sustainability is important so that it remain available for future generation.

Explanation:

1. The home furnaces are likely to require fuel like coal, which will directly emit carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide gases. These should be replaced with the electrical furnaces. The old or more power consuming air conditioners should be replaced with new ones.

2. The water heaters should be tankless so their capacity to heat more water could be possible. The water heaters should be electricity saving.

3. Washer and dryers should be water savy and electricity savy. A front-loading washing machine is useful energy saver.

4. The LED lights are more electricity saving than conventional bulbs. Halogen lights are also electricity saving.

In the periodic table, the properties repeat in what direction?

pogonyaev

Answer:

Left to right and top to bottom

Explanation:

On the periodic table, the properties repeat from left to right and from top to bottom.

Periodic properties have a pattern from the top to the bottom or down a group or family.

Also, across the period from left to right, they also show a repeating pattern.

Certain properties increase from left to right and decreases from top to bottom. E.g. electronegativity.
Also, some properties decreases from left to right and increases from top to bottom e.g. atomic radius.

While eating lunch high up in a skyscraper, two construction workers calculate their gravitational potential

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The mass of the other worker is 45 kg

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The gravitational potential energy of one construction worker = The gravitational potential energy of the other construction worker

The mass of the lighter construction worker, m₁ = 90 kg

The height level of the lighter construction worker's location = h₁

The height level of the other construction worker's location = h₂ = 2·h₁

The gravitational potential energy, P.E., is given as follows;

P.E. = m·g·h

Where;

m = The mass of the object at height

g = The acceleration due to gravity

h = The height at which is located

Let P.E.₁ represent the gravitational potential energy of one construction worker and let P.E.₂ represent the gravitational potential energy of the other construction worker

We have;

P.E.₁ = P.E.₂

Therefore;

m₁·g·h₁ = m₂·g·h₂

h₂ = 2·h₁

We have;

m₁·g·h₁ = m₂·g·2·h₁

m₁ = 2·m₂

90 kg = 2 × m₂

m₂ = (90 kg)/2 = 45 kg

The mass of the other construction worker is 45 kg.

To have momentum, an object must be ______. A. heavy B. massive C. moving D. accelerating

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Momentum of the object can be calculated by multiplying the mass of the object and the velocity of the moving object. In this case, the starting situation should be the object should be moving, else there is no velocity and thus momentum is equal to zero .Answer is C

How would the mathematical model change if the direction that the object traveled was reversed

victus00 [196]

A line that is falling towards the x axis represents an object that is negatively accelerating, or slowing down. When the line hits the x axis, the object has stopped moving. If the graph continues below the x axis, the object has changed direction and is moving backwards at increasing velocity.
