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!

A proton moves with a speed of 1.00 x 106 m/s perpendicular to a magnetic field, B. As a result, the proton moves in circle of r
Softa [21]

Answer:

0.0109 m ≈ 10.9 mm

Explanation:

proton speed = 1 * 10^6 m/s

radius in which the proton moves = 20 m

<u>determine the radius of the circle in which an electron would move </u>

we will apply the formula for calculating the centripetal force for both proton and electron ( Lorentz force formula)

For proton :

Mp*V^2 / rp  = qp *VB   ∴  rp = Mp*V / qP*B    ---------- ( 1 )

For electron:

re = Me*V/ qE * B -------- ( 2 )

Next: take the ratio of equations 1 and 2

re / rp = Me / Mp                                 ( note: qE = qP = 1.6 * 10^-19 C )

∴ re ( radius of the electron orbit )

= ( Me / Mp ) rp

= ( 9.1 * 10^-31 / 1.67 * 10^-27 ) 20

= ( 5.45 * 10^-4 ) * 20

= 0.0109 m ≈ 10.9 mm

The launch velocity of a toy car launcher is determined to be 5 m/s. If the car is to be launched from a height of 0.5 m, where
lora16 [44]

Answer:

1.6 m

Explanation:

Given that the launch velocity of a toy car launcher is determined to be 5 m/s. If the car is to be launched from a height of 0.5 m.

The time for landing should be calculated by using the second equation of motion formula

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

Let U = 0

0.5 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

0.5 = 4.9t^2

t^2 = 0.5 / 4.9

t^2 = 0.102

t = 0.32 s

The target should be placed so that the toy car lands on it at:

Distance = 5 × 0.32

distance = 1.597 m

Distance = 1.6 m

Therefore, the target should be placed so that the toy car lands on it 1.6 metres away.

A bullet with mass m = 0.1 kg grams hits a ballistic pendulum with length L = 3 meters and mass M = 2 kg and lodges in it. When
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

e)     v₁ = 29.7 m / s

Explanation:

Let's propose the solution of the problem, let's start at the moment

Initial

        p₀ = m v₁

Final

     p_{f} = (m + M) v

The moment is preserved

      p₀ =  p_{f}

      m v₁ = (m + M) v

      v = m / (m + M) v₁        (1)

a) energy is conserved

Let's look for kinetic energy

Initial

      K₀ = ½ m v₁²

Final

      K_{f} = ½ (m + M) v²

Let's replace v

     K_{f} = ½ (m + M) [m / (m + M) v₁]²

      K_{f} = ½ m² / (m + M) v₁²

Let's look for the relationship of these energies

     Ko / K_{f} = ½ m v₁² / (½ m² / (m + M) v₁²)

     Ko / K_{f}= (m + M) / m = (1 + M / m)²

The kinetic energy changes therefore it is not conserved in the process, the missing energy is converted into potential heat energy during the crash

b) The impulse is conserved because the system is defined as formed by the two bodies and the externals are of action and reaction, so for the complete system the sum is zero and the moment does not change in value

c) in this case the system is already formed by the two bodies and since there is no rubbing the mechanical energy is conserved, transforming from kinetics to potential

d) when the pendulum oscillates the speed changes from v to zero, so the moment is not conserved, this is because there is an external force acting on the system, the force of gravity

e) For this part let's start at the end of the movement

It is system (bullet + block) moves, energy is conserved

Final. Highest point

          Em_{f} = U = (m + M) g h

Initial. Lowest point

          Em₀ = K = ½ (m + M) v2

          Em₀ =  Em_{f}

          ½ (m + M) v² = (m + M) g h

          v = √ 2gh

Let's look for the height (h) by trigonometry

         Cos 15 = x / L

          h = L-x

          h = L - L cos 15

          h = L (1- cos 15)

We replace

          v = √ (2gL (1- cos 15))

Now we use equation (1) of momentum conservation

         v = m / (m + M) v1

         v₁ = (m + M) / m v

         v1 = (0.1 +2.0) /0.1 RA (2 9.8 3 (1- cos 15))

         v₁ = 21 √ (2.00)

        v₁ = 29.7 m / s
