Answer:

<em>The energy source that powers my home is gotten from burning of fossil fuels.</em>

<em>No! I do not like this energy source.</em>

<em>I personally would prefer solar source of electricity</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

<em>Fossil fuels are fuels gotten from the decomposition of dead organisms over time, under intense heat and pressure</em>. They are usually found buried beneath the earth's crust where they have been formed and trapped.

Most electricity generating stations generate electricity by burning fossil fuels like natural gas and gasoline to generate electricity. <em>The problem with fossil fuels are the various part that they play in increasing carbon footprints in the atmosphere. The excess carbon in the atmosphere has been a major contributor to the global warming of planet Earth.  </em>

My preference for solar energy source is first due to its abundance unlike the fossil fuels that are already diminishing in storage beneath the earth's crust. Also, <em>solar energy is a clean source of energy that does not leave any damage on earth from its use</em>. It also promises to be a cheap source of power in the future with advances in solar technologies.

Hydrogen has only one electron in its only (and outer) electron shell. If a hydrogen atom were to absorb a small amount of energ
Xelga [282]

Answer:

D. move up to another shell that would form

Explanation:

An atom has protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons and neutrons are present in the nucleus and electrons orbit the nucleus in fixed shells. An electron can jump to higher shell when it gains energy and lower one when it loses energy. Thus, when single electron in hydrogen atom is given a small amount of energy, it would jump to another higher shell.

What are some ways you can vary your tone of voice to help you communicate effectively with others? A. Speaking aggressively
Leno4ka [110]
The answer is D, talking more loudly or quietly.
<span>
An expressive voice can bring totally different meaning to what you are saying. If you speak in a monotone voice, you are implying that you do not care about what you are saying or what the other person is talking about. If you speak expressively with some parts quieter or louder to make a point, it lets the listener know that you care about what you are saying and you care about what they have to say too. You can also emphasize a point by speaking louder or indicate that something is not as important by speaking softer.</span>

A student pushes a 0.2 kg box against a spring causing the spring to compress 0.15 m. When the spring is released, it will launc
german

Answer:

The maximum height the box will reach is 1.72 m

Explanation:

F = k·x

Where

F = Force of the spring

k = The spring constant = 300 N/m

x  = Spring compression or stretch = 0.15 m

Therefore the force, F of the spring = 300 N/m×0.15 m = 45 N

Mass of box = 0.2 kg

Work, W, done by the spring = \frac{1}{2} kx^2 and the kinetic energy gained by the box is given by KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Since work done by the spring = kinetic energy gained by the box we have

\frac{1}{2} mv^2 =  \frac{1}{2} kx^2  therefore we have v = \sqrt{\frac{kx^2}{m} } = x\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } = 0.15\sqrt{\frac{300}{0.2} } = 5.81 m/s

Therefore the maximum height is given by

v² = 2·g·h or h = \frac{v^2}{2g} = \frac{5.81^{2} }{2*9.81} = 1.72 m
