Answer:

Though lightning can be harvested in a safe manor, it is not very practical in many areas. Not all places get lightning storms in high amounts, so those locations would not apply, but those who do see frequent lightning can indeed use it to power. Using tall metal beams can attract the lightning and can be escorted into a power converter much like the ones used for nuclear energy.

Why does Quito, Equator has very little changes to the daylight hours<br> throughout the year?

marin [14]

Because of the position on the equator, the change in rotation of the Earth on its axis throughout the year doesn't affect it much. Unlike the poles, Quito is almost constantly in direct view of the sun. So, because of lack of change in rotation, the daylight hours are hardly varied as Quito is almost constantly in more or less the same spot in relation to the sun.

Given an electron beam whose electrons have kinetic energy of 10.0 kev , what is the minimum wavelength λmin of light radiated b

kolbaska11 [484]

To answer the problem we would be using this formula which isE = hc/L where E is the energy, h is Planck's constant, c is the speed of light and L is the wavelength
L = hc/E = 4.136×10−15 eV·s (2.998x10^8 m/s)/10^4 eV

= 1.240x10^-10 m

= 1.240x10^-1 nm

What does the color of a star determine

Irina-Kira [14]

The color of light that a star emits is somewhat related to its age, whereas the color of light that we actually <em>observe</em> from a star is related to the speed at which it's moving with respect to us.

At what point in its motion is the KE of a pendulum bob a maximum? 1. The KE does not change. 2. at the lowest point 3. at the h

Andrew [12]

Answer:

2. at the lowest point

Explanation:

The motion of the pendulum is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy (KE) and gravitational potential energy (GPE). This is because the mechanical energy of the pendulum, which is sum of KE and GPE, is constant:

E = KE + GPE = const.

Therefore, when KE is maximum, GPE is minimum, and viceversa.

So, the point of the motion where the KE is maximum is where the GPE is minimum: and since the GPE is directly proportional to the heigth of the bob:

$GPE=mgh$

we see that GPE is minimum when the bob is at the lowest point,so the correct answer is

2. at the lowest point
