A heat pump is a device used to heat something, in this case water. Heat pump takes heat from colder object and transfers it to warmer object. This is opposite to <span>direction of spontaneous heat transfer which from warmer to colder object.
In this problem a room got colder while water got warmer. This is due to work done by heat pump. This is what is described in correct answer c).
a) is not correct because it shows </span>direction of spontaneous heat transfer. It also says that <span>Aleksei’s family purchased a new water heater and in description givne in a) it would mean that water got colder.
b) is not correct because if the </span><span>burning fuel increased the thermal energy in the air it would mean that this room got warmer than rest of house.
d) is not correct because burning fuel does not absorb </span><span>thermal energy. It releases it.</span>
Solar cells are made out of silicon wafers. These are made out of the element silicon, a hard and brittle crystalline solid that is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust after oxygen. If you're at the beach and see shiny black specks in the sand, that's silicon.
Hope this helps!

(1)
Cheetah speed: 
Its position at time t is given by
(1)
Gazelle speed: 
the gazelle starts S0=96.8 m ahead, therefore its position at time t is given by
(2)
The cheetah reaches the gazelle when
. Therefore, equalizing (1) and (2) and solving for t, we find the time the cheetah needs to catch the gazelle:



(2) To solve the problem, we have to calculate the distance that the two animals can cover in t=7.5 s.
Cheetah: 
Gazelle: 
So, the gazelle should be ahead of the cheetah of at least

If the substance doesn't change chemically, it is a physical reaction.
A scientific law is the simple mathematical expression of the relationship involved. A principle is the same relationship expressed in words. A theory is the explanation of the facts that make up the relationship.
