Bio-gas is the naturally produced fossil fuel, a by-product when bacteria decompose organic material under anaerobic conditions.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Organic matter particularly waste material is broken down by bacteria through fermentation in an environmental condition without any presence of oxygen. This process of decomposition leads to formation of bio-gas with "carbon dioxide and methane" in a 2:3 ratio.
The above biological process is termed as bio-digestion or anaerobic digestion. Methane is flammable and thus bio-gas can be used as "energy source", a waste-to-energy transformation. The remaining decomposed matter is ideal as manure for plants due to its rich nutrient level.
Answer:
Option B is correct.
Explanation:
Potential energy or chemical potential energy is used to Cook food which is then converted into thermal energy. The type of energy used also depends upon the type of cooking appliances used.
For e.g. stove convert potential energy to thermal energy.
Answer:
a)15 N
b)12.6 N
Explanation:
Given that
Weight of block (wt)= 21 N
μs = 0.80 and μk = 0.60
We know that
Maximum value of static friction given as
Frs = μs m g = μs .wt
by putting the values
Frs= 0.8 x 21 = 16.8 N
Value of kinetic friction
Frk= μk m g = μk .wt
By putting the values
Frk= 0.6 x 21 = 12.6 N
a)
When T = 15 N
Static friction Frs= 16.8 N
Here the value of static friction is more than tension T .It means that block will not move and the value of friction force will be equal to the tension force.
Friction force = 15 N
b)
When T= 35 N
Here value of tension force is more than maximum value of static friction that is why block will move .We know that when body is in motion then kinetic friction will act on the body.so the value of friction force in this case will be 12.6 N
Friction force = 12.6 N
The strength of the friction doesn't matter. Neither does the distance or the time the asteroid takes to stop. All that matters is that the asteroid has
1/2 (mass) (speed squared)
of kinetic energy when it lands, and zero when it stops.
So
1/2 (mass) (original speed squared)
is the energy it loses to friction in order to come to rest.
