A. power plants burn coal. A fossil-fuel power plant is one that burns fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas or petroleum (oil) to produce electricity.

b. Fossil fuels are called so because they have been derived from fossils, which were formed millions of years ago during the time of the dinosaurs. They are fossilized organic remains that over millions of years have been converted to oil, gas, and coal.

C. they are generally classified as non-renewable resources because they take millions of years to form and known viable reserves are being depleted much faster than new ones are generated.

a. Gravitational potential energy and work done
If an object is lifted, work is done against the force of gravity.
When work is done energy is transferred to the object and it gains gravitational potential energy.
If the object falls from that height, the same amount of work would have to be done by the force of gravity to bring it back to the Earth’s surface.
If an object at a certain height has 2000 J of gravitational potential energy, we can say that:
2000 J of work has been done in getting the object to that height from the ground
and
2000 J of work would have to be done to bring it back to the ground.

g Suppose that you charge a 3 F capacitor in a circuit containing eight 3.0 V batteries, so the final potential difference acros
Vladimir79 [104]

The complex, highly technical formula for capacitors is

<em>Q = C V</em>

Charge = (capacitance) (voltage)

Charge = (3 F) (24 V)

<em>Charge = 72 Coulombs</em>

The positive plate of the capacitor is missing 72 coulombs worth of electrons.  They were sucked into positive terminal of the battery stack.

The negative plate of the capacitor has 72 coulombs worth of extra electrons.  They came from the negative terminal of the battery stack.

You should be aware that this is a humongous amount of charge !  An average <u><em>lightning bolt</em></u>, where electrons flow between a cloud and the ground for a short time, is estimated to transfer around <u><em>15 coulombs</em></u> of charge !

The scenario in the question involves a "supercapacitor".  3 F is is no ordinary component ... One distributor I checked lists one of these that's able to stand 24 volts on it, but that product costs $35 apiece, you have to order at least 100 of them at a time, and they take 2 weeks to get.  

Also, IF you can charge this animal to 24 volts, it will hold 864J of energy.  You'd probably have a hard time accomplishing this task with a bag of leftover AA batteries.

Photoelectrons with a maximum speed of 8.00 • 106 m/sec are ejected froma surface in the presence of light with a frequency of 6
Andru [333]

The kinetic energy is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

We know the mass and the maximum speed, plugging their values in the expression above we have:

\begin{gathered} K=\frac{1}{2}(9.1\times10^{-31})(8\times10^6)^2 \\ K=2.91\times10^{-17}\text{ J} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is d.

A slender rod is 90.0 cm long and has mass 0.120 kg. A small 0.0200 kg sphere is welded to one end of the rod, and a small 0.070
likoan [24]

Given Information:

length of slender rod = L = 90 cm = 0.90 m

mass of slender rod = m = 0.120 kg

mass of sphere welded to one end = m₁ = 0.0200 kg

mass of sphere welded to another end = m₂ = 0.0700 kg (typing error in the question it must be 0.0500 kg as given at the end of the question)

Required Information:

Linear speed of the 0.0500 kg sphere = v = ?

Answer:

Linear speed of the 0.0500 kg sphere = 1.55 m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of the sphere can by calculated using

ΔKE = ½Iω²

Where I is the moment of inertia of the whole setup ω is the speed and ΔKE is the change in kinetic energy

The moment of inertia of a rigid rod about center is given by

I = (1/12)mL²

The moment of inertia due to m₁ and m₂ is

I = (m₁+m₂)(L/2)²

L/2 means that the spheres are welded at both ends of slender rod whose length is L.

The overall moment of inertia becomes

I = (1/12)mL² + (m₁+m₂)(L/2)²

I = (1/12)0.120*(0.90)² + (0.0200+0.0500)(0.90/2)²

I = 0.0081 + 0.01417

I = 0.02227 kg.m²

The change in the potential energy is given by

ΔPE = m₁gh₁ + m₂gh₂

Where h₁ and h₂ are half of the length of slender rod

L/2 = 0.90/2 = 0.45 m

ΔPE = 0.0200*9.8*0.45 + 0.0500*9.8*-0.45

The negative sign is due to the fact that that m₂ is heavy and it would fall and the other sphere m₁ is lighter and it would will rise.

ΔPE = -0.1323 J

This potential energy is then converted into kinetic energy therefore,

ΔKE = ½Iω²

0.1323 = ½(0.02227)ω²

ω² = (2*0.1323)/0.02227

ω = √(2*0.1323)/0.02227

ω = 3.45 rad/s

The linear speed is

v = (L/2)ω

v = (0.90/2)*3.45

v = 1.55 m/s

Therefore, the linear speed of the 0.0500 kg sphere as its passes through its lowest point is 1.55 m/s.
