Energy of fossil fuels is also derieved from solar energy​

Physics
1 answer:
Marat540 [252]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

All the energy in oil, gas, and coal originally came from the sun, captured through photosynthesis.for example when  we burn wood to release energy that trees capture from the sun, we burn fossil fuels to release the energy that ancient plants captured from the sun. We can think of this energy as having been deposited in a natural solar power bank over millions of years.

So, in one sense, gasoline-burning cars, coal-burning power plants, and homes heated by natural gas are all solar powered!

In which one(s) of the following situations will there be an INCREASE in Kinetic Energy? Group of answer choices A block slides
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The Kinetic Energy INCREASE in the following situations:

a)A block slides down a frictionless incline:

e)A merry go round rotates faster due to the push by a person.

Explanation:

The energy kinetics is proportional to the square of the velocity:

E_k=1/2*mv^2

We study the cases:

a)A block slides down a frictionless incline:

The gravity made a positive work and the box get a extra velocity, then the kinetics energy INCREASE

b)A box is pulled across a rough floor at constant speed:

The magnitude of the velocity does not change, so the kinetics energy does not change as well

c)A stone at the end of a string is whirled in a horizontal circle at constant speed:

The magnitude of the velocity does not change, so the kinetics energy does not change as well

d)A projectile approaches its maximum height:

If the projectile approaches its maximum height, its velocity approaches to zero. Then the kinetics Energy DECREASE

e)A merry go round rotates faster due to the push by a person.

Thanks to the push, the magnitude of the velocity INCREASE, so the kinetics energy INCREASE as well

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

A. 91 meters north

Explanation:

Take +y to be north.

Given:

v₀ = 13 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 7 s

Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (13 m/s) (7 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (7 s)²

Δy = 91 m

The displacement is 91 m north.
