1 ) a) increasing its thickness
2) c)potential difference
<span>B.reduces the greenhouse effect
The greenhouse effect is caused by GHGs in the air... carbon is one of these gases, so reducing your carbon footprint reduces the greenhouse effect</span>
Answer:
Energy is transformed from potential to kinetic and vice versa
Explanation:
The energy is transformed from mechanical to kinetic energy when the object changes its position with respect to a reference point, where it loses height but increases its speed. When the object is at maximum height with respect to a reference point, it will have its maximum potential energy value. When the object passes through the reference point it will have potential energy equal to zero, but this energy will become kinetic energy.
The most characteristic and real example is that of a pendulum at one end, as can be seen in the attached image.
When the pendulum is located at the top end, as shown in Figure 1, at that point the maximum potential energy will be held. Then the pendulum is released and when it passes through the reference point and its height is zero, with respect to that point, all potential energy will have become kinetic energy in the same way at this point the maximum speed of the pendulum will be set.
(a) The efficiency of an engine is defined as the ratio between the work done by the engine and the heat it takes in:

The engine in this problem does a work of

and it takes in

of heat, therefore its efficiency is

(b) The heat taken by the machine is 4000 J; of this amount of heat, only 1100 J are converted into useful work. This means that the rest of the heat is wasted. Therefore, the wasted heat is the difference between the heat in input and the work done by the engine:
