Contrasting Kinetic and Thermal Energy

<em>The difference between Kinetic and Thermal Energy is simple. Thermal Energy comes from heat which is generated by molecules moving around very fast (kinetic energy does tie in here but Thermal and Kinetic Energy are still not the same). Kinetic Energy is generated by speed and mass, and whenever an object is moving fast it has Kinetic Energy, if something is sitting still it has Potential Kinetic Energy.</em>

Answer:

Thermal energy comes from a substance whose molecules and atoms are vibrating faster due to a rise in temperature. Kinetic energy is the energy of a moving object. As thermal energy comes from moving particles, it is a form of kinetic energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Differences:

So, the main difference between thermal and kinetic energy is that the first one is random motions of particles that you mostly can't see by eye, while the second is a unified motion of these same particles, which you can then see. As you say, kinetic energy of large objects can be converted into this thermal energy.

Decide whether the statement is true or false. If it is false, explain why. The union of the solution sets of 4xplus5equals13,

postnew [5]

The given statement is false because it isn't an empty set!

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have following sets of inequalities:

$4x+5=13\\4x+5>13\\4x+5$

From $4x+5=13$ we get ,

$4x = 8 \\x=2$

Therefore solution set is x=2.

Now, for $4x+5>13$ we get ,

$4x+5>13 \\4x>8\\x>2$

Therefore solution set is x>2.

For $4x+5$ we get ,

$4x+5$

Therefore solution set is x<2.

Now, the union of x=2, x<2 & x>2 is -∞<x<∞. i.e. all possible values of x. And so above statement is false because it isn't an empty set!

How many ways can a librarian arrange 15 books on a top shelf if she has 20 books from which to pick?

Jlenok [28]

Use the permutation formula
nPr = (n!)/((n-r)!)
20P15 = (20!)/((20-15)!)
20P15 = (20!)/(5!)

The final answer is choice A

dedylja [7]

Answer:

It cannot be modeled with a rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression 2x^2 + 3x +3 cannot be factored.

That means that it cannot be modeled with a rectangle.

So your answer is, It cannot be modeled with a rectangle.

Solve the equations by substitution method: A. 2x-y-3=0 and 3x+4y=65.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf 2x-y-3=0\dots \dots (1)$

$\sf 3x+4y=65 \\ \implies\sf 3x+4y-65=0 \dots\dots(2)$

from eq (1)

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf 2x-y-3=0$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf 2x-3=y$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf y=2x-3 \dots\dots(3)$

Substitute the value in eq(2)

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf 3x+4y-65=0$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf 3x +4 (2x-3)-65=0$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf 3x+8x-12-65=0$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf 11x-77=0$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf 11x=77$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf x={\dfrac {77}{11}}$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf x=7$

Substitute the value in eq (3)

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf y=2x-3$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf y=2 (7)-3$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf y=14-3$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf y=11$

$\therefore$ ${\underline{\boxed{\bf (x,y)=(7,11)}}}$
