<span>when it returns to its original level after encountering air resistance, its kinetic energy is
decreased.
In fact, part of the energy has been dissipated due to the air resistance.
The mechanical energy of the ball as it starts the motion is:
</span>

<span>where K is the kinetic energy, and where there is no potential energy since we use the initial height of the ball as reference level.
If there is no air resistance, this total energy is conserved, therefore when the ball returns to its original height, the kinetic energy will still be 100 J. However, because of the presence of the air resistance, the total mechanical energy is not conserved, and part of the total energy of the ball has been dissipated through the air. Therefore, when the ball returns to its original level, the kinetic energy will be less than 100 J.</span>
Explanation:
Suppose you want to shine a flashlight beam down a long, straight hallway. Just point the beam straight down the hallway -- light travels in straight lines, so it is no problem. What if the hallway has a bend in it? You could place a mirror at the bend to reflect the light beam around the corner. What if the hallway is very winding with multiple bends? You might line the walls with mirrors and angle the beam so that it bounces from side-to-side all along the hallway. This is exactly what happens in an optical fiber.
The light in a fiber-optic cable travels through the core (hallway) by constantly bouncing from the cladding (mirror-lined walls), a principle called total internal reflection. Because the cladding does not absorb any light from the core, the light wave can travel great distances.
However, some of the light signal degrades within the fiber, mostly due to impurities in the glass. The extent that the signal degrades depends on the purity of the glass and the wavelength of the transmitted light (for example, 850 nm = 60 to 75 percent/km; 1,300 nm = 50 to 60 percent/km; 1,550 nm is greater than 50 percent/km). Some premium optical fibers show much less signal degradation -- less than 10 percent/km at 1,550 nm.

The intensity of most cyclones reduces after hitting land
because land takes away the heat and moisture of tropical ocean water. In order
to survive, cyclone storms need evaporation from the warm sea surface. Intensity
also decreases because of greater fiction on land, compared to the sea surface.
Answer:
Testing
Explanation:
Ancient Greek philosophers lived with the ideology to simply contemplate life. This means that their whole life revolved around thinking and questioning everything. This would include creative thinking, because they would sometimes come up with theories which require creativeness. They would often debate with their friends as to why their theory should be accepted or what their opinions were on the matter. More often than not, they argued a lot, and many philosophers went against some powerful people in the community and some were even sentenced to death.
The main process they didn't/couldn't do was the testing. They could never test certain theories because they did not have the means to.
Answer:
P = 23.32 W
Explanation:
In series
equivalent Resistance
R(eq)=R+R=2R
In parallel equivalent resistance
R(eq) = R*R/(R+R) =R/2
since.
power
P=V² / R
in series
⇒V = √(P*R)
=√(5.83*2R
)
=√(11.66R)
in parallel
P = V² / R(eq)
=(√(11.66R)²) / (R/2)
P=11.66 * R * 2/R
P = 23.32 W
