Answer:
If you count the number of seconds between the flash of lightning and the sound of thunder, and then divide by 5, you'll get the distance in miles to the lightning: 5 seconds = 1 mile, 15 seconds = 3 miles, 0 seconds = very close. Keep in mind that you should be in a safe place while counting.
Explanation:
The technical definition of latitude is the angular distance north or south from the earth's equator measured through 90 degrees. ... Locations at lower latitudes receive stronger and more direct sunlight than locations near the poles. Energy input from the sun is the main driving force in the atmosphere.
The Seasons at Different Latitudes
The seasonal effects are different at different latitudes on Earth. Near the equator, for instance, all seasons are much the same. Every day of the year, the Sun is up half the time, so there are approximately 12 hours of sunshine and 12 hours of night.
When we consider Latitude alone as a control, we know that the low latitudes (say from the Equator to approximately 30 degrees N/S) are the warmest across the year (on an annual basis).
Answer:
The total Mechanical energy will be zero
Explanation: Escape velocity is the velocity required by a free object in order to overcome the impact of the force of gravity. The total mechanical energy of an object is the total energy possessed by an object which includes its kinectic and potential energy.
since the object is moving at an escape velocity which is 11.2m/s the object will be assumed to be weightless
Etotal = kinetic energy + potential energy
kinetic energy= 1/2*M*V*V
Potential energy=MGH
Etotal=1/2*0*11.2*11.2+0*0*0
Etotal=0+0
Etotal=0.
Answer:
(a) 135 kV
(b) The charge chould be moved to infinity
Explanation:
(a)
The potential at a distance of <em>r</em> from a point charge, <em>Q</em>, is given by
where 
Difference in potential between the points is
![kQ\left[-\dfrac{1}{0.2\text{ m}} -\left( -\dfrac{1}{0.1\text{ m}}\right)\right] = \dfrac{kQ}{0.2\text{ m}} = \dfrac{9\times10^9\text{ F/m}\times3\times10^{-6}\text{ C}}{0.2\text{ m}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=kQ%5Cleft%5B-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B0.2%5Ctext%7B%20m%7D%7D%20-%5Cleft%28%20-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B0.1%5Ctext%7B%20m%7D%7D%5Cright%29%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20%5Cdfrac%7BkQ%7D%7B0.2%5Ctext%7B%20m%7D%7D%20%3D%20%5Cdfrac%7B9%5Ctimes10%5E9%5Ctext%7B%20F%2Fm%7D%5Ctimes3%5Ctimes10%5E%7B-6%7D%5Ctext%7B%20C%7D%7D%7B0.2%5Ctext%7B%20m%7D%7D)
(b)
If this potential difference is increased by a factor of 2, then the new pd = 135 kV × 2 = 270 kV. Let the distance of the new location be <em>x</em>.
![270\times10^3 = kQ\left[-\dfrac{1}{x}-\left(-\dfrac{1}{0.1\text{ m}}\right)\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=270%5Ctimes10%5E3%20%3D%20kQ%5Cleft%5B-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bx%7D-%5Cleft%28-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B0.1%5Ctext%7B%20m%7D%7D%5Cright%29%5Cright%5D)
The charge chould be moved to infinity
I think the correct answer would be to electrolyze water (run an electric current through it) to decompose it into hydrogen and oxygen. Assuming 100% efficiency, it is said that it needs about 40kWh per kilogram of water to fully decompose it.
