The correct answer is Devonian period.

This is known to be the period of fishes which occurred 416 million years ago. It is known to be the fourth period of the Paleozoic Era. Significant events like evolution of first insects and other animals.

The Fishes evolved in the Ordovician era but the horses were found in the Devonian period only.

What is Newton's Second Law of Motion? (2 points) Every reaction is equal to the force applied. Forces are balanced when they ar
raketka [301]

Well, they're not quite the way Newton expressed it, but out of all this mess of statements, there are two that are correct AND come from Newton's 2nd Law of Motion:

<em>-- The smaller the mass of an object, the greater the acceleration of that object when a force is applied. </em>

<em>-- The greater the force applied, the greater the acceleration.</em>

For the <u><em>other </em></u>statements in the question:

-- <em>Every reaction is equal to the force applied.</em>  True; comes from Newton's <u><em>3rd</em></u> law of motion.

-- <em>Forces are balanced when they are equal and opposite.</em>  True; kind of a definition, not from Newton's laws of motion.

-- <em>An object at rest or in motion will remain at rest or in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. </em>  True; comes from Newton's <em><u>1st </u></em>law of motion.

A lightbulb has a power of 100 W and is used for 4 hours. A microwave has a power of 1200 W and is used for 5 minutes. How much
ladessa [460]

Answer:

a. E=1440KJ

b. E=360KJ

c. E=1.8 J

Explanation:

I have the power (Watts) is expressed as Energy (Joules) / Time (seconds), also I have to1hour * \frac{60min}{1hour}*\frac{60s}{1min}\\1h=3600s

so, for the lightbulb

100W= \frac{Energy}{3600s*4}\\Energy=100W*14400s\\ E=1440000J =1440KJ

Analogously, for the microwave

1200W= \frac{Energy}{60s*5}\\Energy=1200W*300s\\ E=360000J =360KJ

Now, I have to express the efficiency as Heat energy / power * 100 so1.8= \frac{Heat Energy}{100W}*100\\Heat Energy=1.8J

Done
