In the question "What is true for solar, wind, and geothermal energy?" The correct answer is that they are all renewable energy.
Solar energy is energy that comes from the heat from the sun.
Wind energy is the energy that is generated from the wind.
Geothermal energy energy is the energy that comes from the heat from the earth.
Explanation:
When you observe the night sky you will notice that the stars are moving. They rise from eastern horizon and set in the western horizon. It happens due to rotation of Earth. When observed closely you will notice that the all the stars seem to go around the pole star. Out of all the stars there are some stars which neither set not rise, such stars are called as Circumpolar stars. This means that they are always above the horizon. If we trace the path of such stars they will appear to make complete circle around the pole star.
Also, you will notice that the altitude of pole star (separation of pole star from the horizon in degrees) will depend on the location of observe on the Earth. This happens due to Earth being spherical. So if you are on equator the pole star will be on the horizon i.e. 0° altitude. If you are at Poles, altitude of the pole star will be 90°. Technically the altitude of pole star at any place on Earth is equal to the latitude of the place.
If the altitude of pole star varies and increases as you move towards higher latitude on Earth, the distance between horizon and pole star will also increase. This will result in more stars being circumpolar.
If you are at Poles, all the stars will be circumpolar and if you are at equator no star will be circumpolar.
Answer:
400 g
Explanation:
The computation of the number of grams in the original sample is shown below:
Given that
half-life = 5.26 years
total time of decay = 15.8 years
final amount = 50.0 g
Now based on the above information
number of half-lives past is
= 15.8 ÷ 5.26
= 3 half-lives
Now
3 half-lives = 1 ÷ 8 remains = 50.0 g
So, the number of grams would be
= 50.0 g × 8
= 400 g
