Answer: The earth is comprised of silicate materials as well as metals. The amount of gas is less here because of its location near to the sun. Due to its relative high surface temperature, the gases such as hydrogen and helium gets evaporated and disappears.

Whereas the sun is entirely comprised of hydrogen and helium gas, of which hydrogen is the dominant one. It has an extremely high temperature of about 5500°C.

natima [27]

d = distance traveled by her on her bicycle on a long flat road = 24 kilometer

t = time taken by her to travel distance "d" on her bicycle on a long flat road = 1.2 hours

v = average speed of vivian = ?

we know that average speed is given as

v = d/t

inserting the values in the above formula

v = 24 kilometer / 1.2 hour

v = 20 kilometer/hour


hence the correct choice is

C) 20 km/h

A ball is tossed vertically upward. When it reaches its highest point (before falling back downward) Group of answer choices the
nignag [31]

Answer:

the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward, and the force of gravity acting on the ball is directed downward

Explanation:

Is this exercise in kinematics

          v = v₀ - g t

where g is the acceleration of the ball, which is created by the attraction of the ball to the Earth.

At the highest point

velocity must be zero.

The acceleration depends on the Earth therefore it is constant at this point and with a downward direction.

The force of the earth on the ball is towards the center of the Earth, that is, down

all other alternatives are wrong

Which object has more gravitational potential energy? Use PE = m × g × h, where g = 9.8 meters/second2.
Andrew [12]
Gravitational potential energy can be calculated using the formula <span>PE = m × g × h, where g is the gravitational acceleration and is constant hence the energy is dependent directly to mass and the height of the object. Hence more PE is registered when the object is heavier and/or at greater initial height. </span>

The transfer of thermal energy is a major aspect of which branch of physics?
scZoUnD [109]
Mechanics is dealing with forces that are effecting some body, electrostatics is about electrical fields of not moving bodies, and quantum mechanics is dealing with quantum states of atoms. 

Thermodynamics as the word say, is dealing with thermal energy that is moving (transferring from one body to another or even better from one medium to another).

Answer is C <span />
