Answer:

The water is stored in ice sheets and as snow

Explanation:

Temperature reduces with an increase in altitudes. The standard laps rate is 6.5°C per 1,000 m gained in elevation

At very high elevations, therefore,  the air is usually very cold such that when an elevation of 4,500 meters is reached at the equator, it is possible to observe snowfall and the water remain temporarily stored on the surface of the mountain as ice and snow

Energy Transformation
Serjik [45]

Answer:

<em>K =400000 J</em>

Explanation:

<u>Kinetic Energy</u>

Is the energy an object has due to its state of motion. It's proportional to the square of the speed.

The equation for the kinetic energy is:

\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where:

m = mass of the object

v = speed at which the object moves

The kinetic energy is expressed in Joules (J)

The car has a mass of m=2000 Kg and travels at v=20 m/s. Calculating the kinetic energy:

\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}2000*20^2

Calculating:

K =400000 J

During which two time intervals does the particle undergo equal displacement?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

BC and DE

Explanation:

In the given figure, the velocity time graph is shown. We know that the area under v-t curve gives the displacement of the particle.

Area under AB, d_1=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 10=10\ m

Area under BC, d_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 4=4\ m

Area under CD, d_3=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 7=7\ m

Area under DE, d_4=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 4=4\ m

Area under EF, d_5=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 3=3\ m

So, form above calculations it is clear that, during BC and DE undergo equal displacement. Hence, the correct option is (c) "BC and DE = 4 meters".
