The plant absorbs the sunlight which serves as source of energy for the plant. Therefore, the form of energy which gets converted to “chemical potential energy is the solar energy”.

<u>Explanation: </u>

In process of photosynthesis, the plant makes the food and release oxygen, this occurs only in presence of solar energy that is sunlight. Therefore, the source of energy for the plants are sunlight which provides solar energy which is used up in energy conversion through various process.

The end product of the energy resource is the conversion to chemical potential energy gained over the growth of the cereal plants.

In 2002, a gargantuan iceberg broke away from the Ross Ice Sheet in Antarctica. It was approximately a rectangle 218 km long, 25
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

a) 1.25e15 kg

b) 4.17e20 J

c) 44.55 years

Explanation:

To find the volume you need to multiply 218 km * 25 km * 250 m (be careful with units), so the volume is 1.3625e12 m^3, if you multiply this value by the density you will obtain the mass, that is 1.25e15 kg.

To find the energy needed to melt the ice, you use the latent heat, in this case, it is 3.34e5 J/kg. Now you multiply this value by the mass, so you need 4.17e20 J to melt the iceberg.

The surface area of the iceberg is 545e7 m^2, so the ice absorbs 594e9 W, one W is one J/s, so in 12 hours the iceberg absorbs 2.56e16 J, so in 365 days absorbs 9.36e18 J. Now you just divide 4.17e20 J by the amount f energy per year, and obtain 44.55 years.

How many electrons will a single atom of sulfur with no charge and no bonds have in its valence shell?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

There are 6 electrons in the outermost shell.

Explanation:

Sulphur is a non-mettalic element which is in the period 3 and group .6on the periodic table. It has an atomic number of 16 and a Mass number of 32. Atomic number tells you the number of electrons in an electrically neutral atom. It has the electronic configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4.

The orbitals have a formula 2n^2 where n = 0, 1, 2, 3 etc.

In the shells, n = 1 so there are 2 electrons. For n = 2, 2*(2)^2 = 8 electrons. So, 16 - (8 + 2) = 6 electrons in the 3 shell (outermost shell)

Therefore from the electronic confriguration above, there are 6 electrons in the outermost shell.

Runner A is initially 5.7 km west of a flagpole and is running with a constant velocity of 8.9 km/h due east. Runner B is initia
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

B meet A 0.01 km east of flagpole

Explanation:

given data

distance A = 5.7 km  west

velocity V1 = 8.9 km/h

distance B = 4.5 km  east

velocity V2 = 7 km/h

to find out

How far runners from the flagpole, when paths cross

solution

we know A and B are 5.7 + 4.5 = 10.2 km apart

and we consider here B will run distance x km for meet

so time will be for B is

time B = distance / velocity

time B = x / 7     ...................1

and

for A distance for meet = ( 10.2 - x ) km

so time A = distance / velocity

time A = ( 10.2 - x )  / 8.9      .............2

now equating equation 1 and 2

time A = time B

x / 7  =   ( 10.2 - x )  / 8.9

x = 4.490

so distance of B run for meet is 4.490 km

so distance from the flagpole when their paths cross is 4.5 - 4.490 = 0.01 km

so B meet A 0.01 km east of flagpole
