The ball in this activity could reach much greater speeds if not for the loss of energy in many different transformations. There

is one major energy loss that is causing the ball to move more slowly, what is that energy? What force is acting upon the ball to create this loss of energy?
Please help quick!

denpristay [2]

Answer:

a) from the hotter object to the cooler object

Explanation:

temperature moves by conduction,  which is associated with the movement of  atoms or molecules and the always move from hight temperatures to lower temperatures to attain thermal equilinrium of the system.

so when two objects are placed together and have different temperatures then the system is not in thermal equilibrium and to attain it, temperature can only move to coller object and not from the coller object according to thermodynamics.

Hydraulic engineers often use, as a unit of volume of water, the "acre-foot", defined as the volume of water that will cover 1 a
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Volume = 1,015 acre-feet (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Rain = 1.7 in

Time = 30 min

Area = 29 km²

Find:

Volume in acre-feet

Computation:

1 km = 1,000 m

1 m = 3.28 feet

1 km² = 247.105 acre

d = 1.7 in = 1.7 / 12 = 0.14167 ft

Area = 29 × 247.105 = 7,166.045 acre

Volume = 7,166.045 acre × 0.14167 ft

Volume = 1,015 acre-feet (Approx)

A paleontologist estimates that when a particular rock formed, it contained 12 mg of the radioactive isotope potassium-40, which
leva [86]

Answer:

t = 2.52 billion \:years

Explanation:

As we know by radioactivity law

N = N_o e^{-\lambda t}

so here we will have

N = 3 mg

N_o = 12 mg

now we will have

3 = 12 e^{-\lambda t}

\lambda t = ln 4

now we also know that

\lambda = \frac{ln2}{1.26 \times 10^6 yrs}

t = 1.26\times 10^6\times \frac{ln4}{ln2}

t = 2.52 billion \:years
