when a person uses an iron to remove the wrinkles from a shirt, why does heat travel from the iron to the shirt?
artcher [175]
I think the answer to your question is that:
There is chemical energy being produced (by the water) and that causes the base of iron to absorb the heat. Then when the heated base of the iron is placed onto the shirt, the heat flattens the wrinkles on it.

A girl is shown at position A on a swing when the seat is directly below the support bar. The seat is then at height A as shown
MrRa [10]

Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>1. The potential energy of the swing is the greatest at the position B.</u>

  • <u>2. As the swing moves from point B to point A, the kinetic energy is increasing.</u>

Explanation:

Even though the syntax of the text is not completely clear, likely because it accompanies a drawing that is not included, it results clear that the posittion A is where the seat is at the lowest position, and the position B is upper.

The gravitational <em>potential energy </em>is directly proportional to the height of the objects with respect to some reference altitude. Thus, when the seat is at the position A the swing has the smallest potential energy and when the seat is at the <em>position B the swing has the greatest potential energy.</em>

Regarding the forms of energy, as the swing moves from point B to point A, it is going downward, gaining kinetic energy (speed) at the expense of the potential energy (losing altitude). When the seat passes by the position A, the kinetic energy is maximum and the potential energy is miminum. Then the seat starts to gain altitude again, losing the kinetic energy and gaining potential energy, up to it gets to the other end,

Answer:

orbit the sun have very elliptical orbits

are made of frozen gas and ice

Explanation:

Comets are the made up of dry ice, frozen water, gases and dust particles. it is called dirty snow balls as their nucleus carry frozen water and pieces of rock.

Comets move around the sun in an elliptical orbits and follow Kepler's Laws saying that they move faster when closer to the Sun.

Comets have tails even when they are far from the sun and the tails that point away from the sun.

Hence, the correct options are "orbit the sun have very elliptical orbits and are made of frozen gas and ice".
