Answer:

Explanation:

Using the formula;

Speed = Distance/Time

Given

Speed = 8km/s

Time = 2hr

Convert 2hr to secs

1hr = 3600secs

2hr = 2(3600)

2hr = 7200secs

Altitude is the distance

From the formula;

Distance = speed × time

Distance = 8×7200

Distance = 57200km

Hence the altitude at this point is 57,200km

Concept map for kinetic energy, work and power
Helen [10]

Kinetic energy: the energy of motion

Work: the change in kinetic energy

Power: the rate of work done

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. Mathematically, it is given by:

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

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

The work done an object is the amount of energy transferred; according to the energy-work theorem, it is equal to the change in kinetic energy of an object:

W=K_f - K_i

where

K_f is the  final kinetic energy

K_i is the initial kinetic energy

Finally, the power is the rate of work done per unit time. Mathematically, ti can be expressed as

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

W is the work done

t is the time elapsed

While playing a video game on your laptop, the laptop gets very hot. Which Thermodynamics Law does this exemplify?
Ksivusya [100]

Answer

The dedicated graphics card is used when performing hardware-intensive tasks so as to ensure efficiency and balanced performance. However, it uses more power and thus produces more heat. When the cooling system is not sufficient or the room is not well ventilated, your PC begins to overheat while playing games.     Explanation: How does the second law of thermodynamics relate to the direction of heat flow? Heat of itself never flows from a cold object to a hot object. ... The second law expresses the maximum efficiency of a heat engine in terms of hot and cold temperatures. one of these answers i am not sure
