Heavier, negatively charged particles sink to the bottom of the cloud. When the positive and negative charges grow large enough, a giant spark - lightning-occurs between the 2 charges within the cloud. This is like a static electricity sparks you see, but much bigger.

The answer would be C. Lightning occurs when the negative charges from clouds attract towards the positive charges on the ground. These two charges attract and cause the spark of lightning. Hope this helps.

xeze [42]

Answer: You do not specify what is being asked for. ∆E? ∆H?

∆E = (430 - 238) J = 192 J

∆H = 430 J

Explanation:

If asked for the value of ∆H the answer is simply the change in heat, and in the question, it states introduction of 430 J of heat is causing the system to expand.

Therefore ∆H = 430 J

If asked for ∆E, we know that ∆E = ±q (heat) + work (-P∆V) = ±q + w

The question states that 238 J of work are done AND the system expanded

(work is negative because expansion means work is done BY the system, releasing energy/heat... Conversely, if the system were compressed, work is done ON the system, absorbing heat/energy)

Therefore, ∆E = (430 - 238) J = 192 J

You are attempting to row across a stream in your rowboat. Your paddling speed relative to still water is 3.0 m/s (i.e., if you
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

Please check the attached file for the diagram

Explanation:

The velocity of the of the rowboat V_{tot}  through the river is the resultant velocity. It is obtained taking a vector sum of the velocity in still water and the velocity of the river.

There are several ways to take this vector sum, but the question makes it simple for us to use Pythagoras's theorem because the East and North directions are perpendicular to each other.

Hence;

V_{tot}^2=V_{still}^2+V_{w}^2\\V_{tot}^2=3^2+4^2

V_{tot}=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}\\ V_{tot}=\sqrt{25}=5m/s
