B) What are the only two sources of energy that produce all the energy we use on Earth? What form

Zina [86]

Answer:

Solar and nuclear power generate more than 99 percent of our civilization's energy. Every other important source of energy is a combination of these two. The majority of them are solar in nature. We discharge previously collected solar energy when we burn wood.

and

Nuclear energy, fossil energy (oil, coal, and natural gas), and renewable energy (wind, solar, geothermal, and hydropower) are all examples of primary energy sources.

A hollow spherical shell has mass 8.20 kg and radius 0.220 m. It is initially at rest and then rotates about a stationary axis t

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

8.91 J

Explanation:

mass, m = 8.20 kg

radius, r = 0.22 m

Moment of inertia of the shell, I = 2/3 mr^2

= 2/3 x 8.2 x 0.22 x 0.22 = 0.265 kgm^2

n = 6 revolutions

Angular displacement, θ = 6 x 2 x π = 37.68 rad

angular acceleration, α = 0.890 rad/s^2

initial angular velocity, ωo = 0 rad/s

Let the final angular velocity is ω.

Use third equation of motion

ω² = ωo² + 2αθ

ω² = 0 + 2 x 0.890 x 37.68

ω = 8.2 rad/s

Kinetic energy,

$K = \frac{1}{2}I\omega ^{2}$

K = 0.5 x 0.265 x 8.2 x 8.2

K = 8.91 J

An astronaut takes an object to the moon where there is less gravity. Explain how the mass and weight of the object on the moon

alexandr1967 [171]

The mass of the object will remain the same rather it's on the moon or on the Earth and even in other places. But the weight will change on the moon, so its weight will be different from the one it had on Earth

Capacitor C1 is initially charged to V1 and capacitor C2 is initially charged to V2. The capacitors are then connected to each o

o-na [289]

Answer:

<em>20.08 Volts</em>

Explanation:

<u>Parallel Connection of Capacitors</u>

The voltage across any two elements connected in parallel is the same. If the elements are capacitors, then each voltage is

$\displaystyle V_1=\frac{Q_1}{C_1}$

$\displaystyle V_2=\frac{Q_2}{C_2}$

They are both the same after connecting them, thus

$\displaystyle \frac{Q_2}{C_2}=\frac{Q_1}{C_1}$

Or, equivalently

$\displaystyle Q_2=\frac{C_2Q_1}{C_1}$

The total charge of both capacitors is

$\displaystyle Q_t=Q_1\left(1+\frac{C_2}{C_1}\right)$

We can compute the total charge by using the initial conditions where both capacitors were disconnected:

$Q_t=V_{10}C_1+V_{20}C_2=25\cdot 24+13\cdot 11=743\ \mu C$

Now we compute Q1 from the equation above

$\displaystyle Q_1=\frac{Q_t}{\left(1+\frac{C_2}{C_1}\right)}=\frac{743}{\left(1+\frac{13}{24}\right)}=481.95\ \mu C$

The final voltage of any of the capacitors is

$\displaystyle V_1=V_2=\frac{481.95}{24}=20.08\ V$

How can a simple machine lift a heavy load with smaller effort

solniwko [45]

Answer:

The axle is fixed to a frame or a block. The pulley is normally fixed to a support above the load. The load is tied to one end of the rope and the effort is applied at the other end. Such a pulley makes our work easier by simply changing the direction of the force, i.e. a load is lifted up using a downward effort.

May be this will help U
