An electric generator is when a magnet is rotated through a coil of wire to produce an electric current.
Maru [420]3 years ago

Answer:

A. A magnet is rotated through a coil of wire to produce an electric current.

Explanation:

An electric generator works on the principle of Faraday's law of induction. As the magnetic flux linked with the coil changes, an emf is induced in the coil and current is produced.

An electric generator converts mechanical energy to electrical energy.

Thus, the correct statement that describes the an electric generator is: A. A magnet is rotated through a coil of wire to produce an electric current.

Weathering of rocks can occur in many ways. In the western United States, strong winds can erode huge rock formations by blowing
stepan [7]

Answer: physical or mechanical weathering

Explanation:

Mechanical weathering which is also referred to as the physical weathering occurs when a rock is broken down into smaller pieces. In this case, there will be a physical change of the rock but its composition will not change.

Some examples include ice freezing and expansion of the cracks in the rock, Smstrong winds that carrycpieces of sand which then sandblast surfaces, moving water which causes abrasion etc.

Very lost please help.
V125BC [204]
A) The acceleration is due to gravity at any given point if you look at it vertically, so -10 m/s^2.

b) sin(25) = V_y/V, so V_y = V*sin(25). We use V = V_0 + a t and then the final speed must be 0 because it stops at the highest point. So 0 = V_y - 10t. Solve for t and you get t = 32sin(25)/10 = 16sin(25)/5

c) Y = Y_0 + V_0t + (1/2)at^2, and then we plug the values: Y_m_a_x = 32sin(25)*t - (1/2)*10*t^2 and we already have the time from "b)", so Y_m_a_x = [(32sin(25))*(32sin(25)/10)] - 5(32sin(25)/10)^2; then we just rearrange it Y_m_a_x = 10[(32sin(25))^2/100] - 5 [(32sin(25))^2/100] and finally Y_m_a_x = 5[(32sin(25))^2/100] = (32sin(25))^2/20

What pollutant forms when automobile emissions react with oxygen gas and ultraviolet rays?
creativ13 [48]

Ozone is a molecule that consists of three oxygen atoms. When high-energy ultraviolet rays strike ordinary oxygen molecules (O2), they split the molecule into two single oxygen atoms, known as atomic oxygen. A freed oxygen atom then combines with another oxygen molecule to form a molecule of ozone.  Hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides come from great variety of industrial and combustion processes. Motor vehicle exhaust and industrial emissions, gasoline vapors, and chemical solvents are some of the major sources of NOx and VOC that acts as a precursor of ozone. In urban areas, the number of automobiles are more and therefore, more production of such harmful gases. These gases in presence of sunlight leads to the formation of bad ozone.

Which of the following are possible causes of mass extinctions that scientists have identified
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

over harvesting, pollution, introduction of invasive species such as new predators and food competitors

Explanation:

The main cause of mass extinction is Humans cause extinction of a species through overharvesting. The second main  cause is pollution ., introduction of invasive species such as new predators and food competitors, habitat destruction, overhunting and other influences. Another very important cause of mass extinction is the unsustainable human population growth.

The five mass extinction events are

Ordovician Mass Extinction

Devonian Mass Extinction

 Permian Mass Extinction

Triassic -Jurassic Mass Extinction

and Cretaceous -Tertiary (or the K-T) Mass Extinction.
