Use of fossil fuels has not lead to increased use of wood as heat source.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Fossil fuels are materials required to generate heat or thermal energy and they are obtained by the decomposed remains of plants, animals and human beings. But the fossil fuels generally present in the bottom layer of earth crust or sometimes mixed with stones or rock minerals. So we need to highly energetic drilling devices to extract the fossil fuels.

Thus, before the introduction of fossil fuels, wood is used as the igniting source for heat energy. But the entry of fossil fuels have reduced the use of wood as igniting source in cooking, burning etc.

Thus, the use of fossil fuels have increased exchange of culture and ideas as fuels are mostly imported from other nations, it lead to development of faster transportation methods and increased the availability of products including heat, plastics and medicine. But similarly, the use of fossil fuels have not increased the use of wood as heat source, instead it decreased the use of wood as heat source.

If I could lift up to ten tons and I threw a ball the size of an orange but weighed a ton, to the ground, how big of an impact w
Anarel [89]

Answer:

The impact force is 98000 N.

Explanation:

mass = 10 tons

The impact force is the weight of the object.

Weight =mass x gravity

W = 10 x 1000 x 9.8

W = 98000 N

The impact force is 98000 N.

A mass weighting 16 lbs stretches a spring 3 inches. The mass is in a medium that exerts a viscous resistance of 20 lbs when the
const2013 [10]

Answer:

The equation for the object's displacement is u(t)=0.583cos11.35t

Explanation:

Given:

m = 16 lb

δ = 3 in

The stiffness is:

k=\frac{m}{\delta } =\frac{16}{3} =5.33lb/in

The angular speed is:

w=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } =\sqrt{\frac{5.33*386.4}{16} } =11.35rad/s

The damping force is:

F_{D} =cu

Where

FD = 20 lb

u = 4 ft/s = 48 in/s

Replacing:

c=\frac{F_{D} }{u} =\frac{20}{48} =0.42lbs/in

The critical damping is equal:

c_{c} =\frac{2k}{w} =\frac{2*5.33}{11.35} =0.94lbs/in

Like cc>c the system is undamped

The equilibrium expression is:

u(t)=u(o)coswt+u'(o)sinwt\\u(o)=7=0.583\\u'(o)=0\\u(t)=0.583coswt\\u(t)=0.583cos11.35t

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

when the mass of the bottle is 0.125 kg, the average height of the beanbag is 0.35 m.

when the mass of the bottle is 0.250 kg, the average maximum height of the beanbag is 0.91m.

when the mass of the bottle is 0.375 kg, the average maximum height of the beanbag is 1.26m.

when the mass of the bottle is 0.500 kg, the average maximum height of the beanbag is 1.57m.
