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.

Two different liquids are poured into a jar until it is half full. The jar is then sealed shut and shaken. The liquids undergo a
Lilit [14]

Answer:

A closed system.

Explanation:

The three major types of system are: open, closed and isolated. Open system interacts with its surroundings with respect to its particles and energy. A closed system interacts with its surroundings with respect to energy but not its particles. While an isolated system does not interact with its surroundings in any way.

Therefore, after the jar is sealed, it is an example of a closed system. This is because the emitted gas could not escape into the surroundings, but thermal energy was emitted into its surroundings after the chemical reaction has taken place.

2. Why is natural selection a mechanism for biological change?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Natural selection is a simple mechanism that causes populations of living things to change over time.  Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success.

What do electric forces between charges depend on?
bonufazy [111]

Electrostatic forces between charges depend on the product of
the sizes of the charges, and the distance between them.

We should also mention the item about whether the charges are
both the same sign or opposite signs.  That determines whether
the forces will pull them together or push them apart, which is a
pretty significant item.
