Answer : First of all, to harness the solar energy and utilize it for the decomposition of water to make hydrogen fuel cell seems to be easy but practically it has many hurdles in its way. It might not work well, when the days would not be sunny. Also, the production of hydrogen fuel would require decomposing water which may need a high energy of activation, which would be more than the energy that will be produced from the fuel cell.

The challenge that scientists will face with this task is the production of hydrogen since hydrolysis or the <span>decomposition of water (H2O) requires a certain amount of energy to be supplied. Scientists should look at how much is this energy supplied. It can be more than what would be produced from the fuel cells which will eventually result to a loss.</span>

If you start with a substance as a solid, what will happen to the molecules as you add thermal energy (heat)?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

C. molecules speed up as more thermal energy is added

Explanation:

The molecules will simply speed up as more thermal energy is added to the solid.

Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy which is set in motion.

  • Heat causes kinetic energy build up in a body.
  • As the molecules of the solid gains heat, they will continue to increase in thermal energy.
  • They are forced to start vibrating about their fixed point.
  • Thereafter, when they have enough energy, they break free from the forces holding them.
  • Therefore, they move from a state of rest to one with a very high kinetic energy where the molecules moves rapidly.
  • This is why a solid will change to liquid and sometimes eventually gas

How is the medium of a wave and transmit of a wave similar and different?
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Sound and light are similar in that both are forms of energy that travel in waves. They both have properties of wavelength, freqency and amplitude. Here are some differences: Sound can only travel through a medium (substance) while light can travel through empty space.

A homeowner uses a snowblower to clear his driveway. knowing that the snow is discharged at an average angle of 40° with the hor
Nesterboy [21]

given that snow is projected at an angle of 40 degree

It range is given as a = 19 ft

a = 19 * 0.3048 = 5.8 m

now we can use the formula of horizontal range

R = \frac{v_o^2 sin2\theta}{g}

5.8 =\frac{ v_o^2 sin(2*40)}{9.8}

5.8 = \frac{v_o^2 * sin80}{9.8}

v_o^2 = 57.7

v_o = 7.6 m/s

<u>so its initial speed must be 7.6 m/s</u>
