You heat your home with electricity generated by a coal-fired power plant. Because energy from the coal is lost in the productio

n and distribution of the electricity, it would be more efficient to just burn the coal in your home (although certainly less convenient!). How much less coal would you need to burn if you heated your home directly with coal, instead of using electricity generated from coal? You would need about

Well since you can only heat your home/water with it and your home stove is less efficient than say the zero-emmisions one in gillete WY. and the distribution cost placed on top of that. you would pay more than the coal-made-electricity. plus you would burn more for the same effect. and coal decomposes in oxygen so that's not EPA condoned anymore. so the answer is. . . none. its more advantageous to just use the electricity

What does the wavelength of visible light waves correspond to?
marissa [1.9K]

Explanation:

Visible light is a very part of electromagnetic spectrum. We can see the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

The frequency and the wavelength has an inverse relationship.

For example, the red light has large wavelength and low frequency. Violet has a short wavelength and higher frequency.

The frequency range of visible region is from 400 nm to 700 nm.

g Describe how an electron can possess the properties of both a particle and a wave. How do the wave properties of electrons rel
nalin [4]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

According to Louis de Broglie, matter has an associated wavelength. Hence, there exist no clear cut difference between matter and wave. Matter may be regarded as a wave and vice versa depending on the behavior of each under the given circumstances.

According to Heisenberg uncertainty principle, the position and momentum of matter can not be simultaneously determined with precision. This further reinforces the wave-particle concept of the electron.

When electrons are passed through crystals, they are diffracted just like electromagnetic waves. This further reinforces the wave-particle paradox.

According to The Heisenberg uncertainty principle, the wave property of electrons determine their exact location in space

What will be the final velocity of a 5.0 g bullet starting from rest, if a net force of 45 N is
djverab [1.8K]

The net force performs a total amount of work equal to

(45 N) (0.80 m) = 36 J

on the bullet, and this is in turn is equal to the change in the bullet's kinetic energy by the work-energy theorem. So we have

W = ∆K = 1/2 mv²

since the bullet starts at rest, where m = its mass and v = its final velocity.

Solve for v :

36 J = 1/2 (0.0050 kg) v²   ⇒   v = 120 m/s
