What is the main source of energy?

1 answer:

4 0

the end, all the energy that we use comes from two sources; the sun (fossil fuels, solar panels, hydro power, and wind energy), and its predecessor, some supernova that created the very heavy atoms (uranium, thorium) which are still around that provide us with geothermal heat and nuclear reactors

A 5000 kg African elephant has a resting metabolic rate of 2500 W. On a hot day, the elephant's environment is likely to be near

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

36 kg

Explanation:

To answer this question, a few assumptions have to be made:

That the temperature on the day is 35 °C
That all the heat from the elephant is goes to warming/evaporating the water on the surface of the elephant

Energy released per hour = 2500 J/s * 3600 s = 9 000 000 J

Q = mcΔT

9 000 000 J= m *4.186 J/g-K * (373K - 308K) + m*2260 J/g

m = 36 000 g = 36 kg

Guys No one's answering my question so sad! Once again I'm asking the same question –Here

For the front glass of the car to get wet, $V_c \geq 10 \ m/s$ .

The given parameters:

<em>Speed of the car, = Vc</em>
<em>Speed of the rain, = 10 m/s</em>

The relative velocity of the car with respect to the falling rain is calculated as;

$V_{C/R} = V_C- V_R$

If the speed of the car equals the speed of the rain, the rain will fall behind the car.
If the speed of the rain is greater than speed of the car, the rain will fall far in front of the car.
If the speed of the car is greater than speed of the rain, the rain will fall on the car.

Thus, for the front glass of the car to get wet, $V_c \geq 10 \ m/s$ .
