You're most likely to build up enough static charge to receive a  shock by walking around in a carpeted restaurant in the desert. (A)

Walking on carpet is the fastest way to accumulate charge, and the dry desert air prevents the charge from dribbling off of you and away.

When I walked on stones in the Sinai Desert, the dry wind with a little bit of sand or dust in it built up enough static charge on me that I got a shock every time I stood less than a foot away from my partner.

I had the same experience a few years later near Ouarzazate in the interior of Morocco.

When you hear people say "the desert is dry", they mean it's <em>DRY !  </em>

A 50.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.300 and the
Dimas [21]

Answer:

98N and 147N

Explanation:

We have the following information:

m=50kg\\\mu_s =0.4\\\mu_k = 0.2\\F=140N

We can find the static fricton force as follow,

F=\mu_s * N

Where N is the normal force (mg)

F=0.3*50*9.8\\F=147N

Static friction force at 147N is greater than the force applied hence body does not move.

F=\mu_k N = 0.2*50*9.8= 98N

What does activation energy has to do with a chemical reaction.
asambeis [7]

Explanation:

Activation energy and reaction rate

The activation energy of a chemical reaction is closely related to its rate. Specifically, the higher the activation energy, the slower the chemical reaction will be. ... The released energy helps other fuel molecules get over the energy barrier as well, leading to a chain reaction.

Write about the similarities and differences between kinetic and potential energy. Include specific, real world example in your
lord [1]

Answer:

Energy is transformed from potential to kinetic and vice versa

Explanation:

The energy is transformed from mechanical to kinetic energy when the object changes its position with respect to a reference point, where it loses height but increases its speed. When the object is at maximum height with respect to a reference point, it will have its maximum potential energy value. When the object passes through the reference point it will have potential energy equal to zero, but this energy will become kinetic energy.

The most characteristic and real example is that of a pendulum at one end, as can be seen in the attached image.

When the pendulum is located at the top end, as shown in Figure 1, at that point the maximum potential energy will be held. Then the pendulum is released and when it passes through the reference point and its height is zero, with respect to that point, all potential energy will have become kinetic energy in the same way at this point the maximum speed of the pendulum will be set.

How does geosphere interact with biosphere
Marina86 [1]

<span>With a partner, describe interactions in this scene, tracing the movement of materials or energy through all four of Earth's spheres if possible. Plants (biosphere) draw water (hydrosphere) and nutrients from the soil (geosphere) and release water vapor into the atmosphere.</span>
