Answers:</h2>
-The first direct detection of gravitational waves came in 2015
-The existence of gravitational waves is predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity
-Gravitational waves carry energy away from their sources of emission
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
Gravitational waves were discovered (theoretically) by Albert Einstein in 1916 and "observed" for the first time in direct form in 2015 (although the results were published in 2016).
These gravitational waves are fluctuations or disturbances of space-time produced by a massive accelerated body, modifying the distances and the dimensions of objects in an imperceptible way.
In this context, an excellent example is the system of two neutron stars that orbit high speeds, producing a deformation that propagates like a wave,<u> in the same way as when a stone is thrown into the water</u>. So, in this sense, gravitational waves carry energy away from their sources
.
Therefore, the correct options are D, E and F.
Coal is burned to get energy. By burning coal, green houses gases like carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides and suphur oxides are produced.
Rest of the energy sources given in the option are clean energies.
Answer is A.
Answer:
(B) 13.9 m
(C) 1.06 s
Explanation:
Given:
v₀ = 5.2 m/s
y₀ = 12.5 m
(A) The acceleration in free fall is -9.8 m/s².
(B) At maximum height, v = 0 m/s.
v² = v₀² + 2aΔy
(0 m/s)² = (5.2 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) (y − 12.5 m)
y = 13.9 m
(C) When the shell returns to a height of 12.5 m, the final velocity v is -5.2 m/s.
v = at + v₀
-5.2 m/s = (-9.8 m/s²) t + 5.2 m/s
t = 1.06 s
Electroreception is limited to aquatic environments because on here is the resistivity of the medium is low enough for electric currents to be generated as the result of electric fields of biological origin. In air, the resistivity of the environment is so high that electric fields from biological sources do not generate a significant electric current. Electroreceptor are found in a number of species of fish, and in at least one species of mammal, the Duck-Billed platypus.
