Answer:

Nonrenewable energy

Explanation:

Renewable energy is also known as clean energy and it can be defined as a type of energy that are generated through natural sources or technology-based processes that are replenished constantly. Some examples of these natural sources are water (hydropower), wind (wind energy), sun (solar power), geothermal, biomass, waves etc.

Basically, a renewable energy source is sustainable and as such can not be exhausted.

On the other hand, a non-renewable energy refers to an energy source such as fossil fuels that takes a very long time to be created or their creation happened long ago and isn't likely to happen again e.g uranium.

For example, fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas, come from deep inside the Earth where they formed over millions of years ago.

In this scenario, the kind of energy the newspaper sources are talking about is a nonrenewable energy source because they are capable of being exhausted in the not-so-distant future.

How are climate and weather related?
iris [78.8K]
Weather is what conditions of the atmosphere are over a short period of time, and climate is how the atmosphere "behaves" over relatively long periods of time.

Answer the following question​
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

A) OA, AB, BC

B) 25m/s^2

C) see explanation

D) 25

E) Rest

Explanation:

From the Velocity time graph shown:

The positive slope = OA ; This is positive because, it is the point of uniform acceleration on the graph.

Constant slope = AB, the slope here is constant because, AB on the graph is the point of constant velocity.

-ve slope = BC

B) Acceleration of body in path OA.

Acceleration = change in Velocity / time

Acceleration = (150 - 0) / 6

Acceleration = 150/6 = 25m/s^2

C) Path AB is Parallel to the because it marks the period of constant velocity (that is Velocity does not increase or decrease during the time interval).

D) Length of BC

BC corresponds to the distance moved, that velocity / time

Velocity = 150 ; time = 6

Therefore Distance (BC) = 150/6 = 25

E.) Velocity =0 ; Hence body is at rest

Answer:

A. nuclear fusion reactions

C. it's still hot from the big bang

Explanation:

The inside of the earth is hot due to some reasons. This heat provides the internal energy the drives processes within the earth interior. Here are some of the ways in which the heat has accumulated:

  • Nuclear reactions within the earth interior by fusion and other radioactive processes releases a large amount of heat.
  • Some heat accreted during the early formation of the earth and has not been lost till this day.
  • Heating due to friction

These are some of the sources of the earth's internal heat.

On a highway curve with a radius of 46 meters, the maximum force of static friction that can act on a 1,200 kg car going around
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

v\approx 16.956\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The motion of the vehicule on a highway curve can be modelled by the following equation of equilibrium:

\Sigma F = f = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}

The maximum speed is:

v = \sqrt{\frac{f\cdot R}{m} }

v = \sqrt{\frac{(7500\,N)\cdot (46\,m)}{1200\,kg} }

v\approx 16.956\,\frac{m}{s}
