The complete question is:

Study the scenario. A firework is ignited, and explodes with a flash and a loud bang as it is blown apart. The system consists of: the firework, the earth, and the air. which choice best describes how energy is transformed in the system?

A) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction absorbs energy from the surrounding environment. the energy is in several forms including sound and light, and mechanical energy of the fragments of the firecracker that are launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into thermal energy.

B) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction releases energy in several forms, including sound, light, and the mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into mechanical energy.

C) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction releases energy in several forms, including sound, light, and the mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into thermal or mechanical energy.

D) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction absorbs energy from the surrounding environment. The energy is taken in in several forms including sound and light, and mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy is transformed into thermal energy.

Answer:

C) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction releases energy in several forms, including sound, light, and the mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into thermal or mechanical energy.

Explanation:

Energy is released from the system, not absorbed.

All the sound, light and movement of the debris is as a result of energy transformation from the chemical energy.

Eventually, most of the energy are finally wasted away as heat energy.

Some of the energy is used up by the flying particles from the fireworks.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

0.02 s

Explanation:

Take the (+x) direction to be up.  

The average velocity v during a time interval Δt is the displacement Δx divided by Δt.  

v=Δx/Δt

 =x_f-x_i/t_f-t_i                 (1)

We assume that your height is 1.6m  

Solving [1]

Δt=Δx/v

  = 0.02 s

How does the sun rise and set
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

c. earth rotates on it tilted axis and orbit around the sun at the same time​

Explanation:

Earth rotation can be defined as the amount of time taken by planet earth to complete its spinning movement on its axis.

This ultimately implies that, the rotation of earth refers to the time taken by earth to rotate once on its axis. One spinning movement of the earth on its axis takes approximately 24 hours to complete with respect to the sun. Thus, this makes us to experience day and night (sun rise and sun set) due to the rotation of planet about its axis.

Hence, the sun rise and set because the earth rotates on it tilted axis and orbit around the sun at the same time​
