Scientists use a method called triangulation to determine where the earthquake was. It is called triangulation because a triangle has three sides, and it takes three seismographs to locate an earthquake.
<span>They are balanced. If the forces were not balanced the book would move*. In this example, the downward force of gravity on the book is counterbalanced by the upthrust of the desk. </span>
Illluminance is the measurement of photometric power. That means, illuminance is the rate of photometric flux that is received by a surface per area. It is usually expressed as a unit of W/m^2.
Thus, from the choices, the answer we're looking for is illuminance<span>.</span>
Answer:
Most of the oxygen in the atmosphere is in the form of O2, which means it is made up of molecules containing two oxygen atoms. Ozone, however is O3, which means it is made up of molecules containing three oxygen atoms. O2 is what we breath, and what plants release from photosynthesis. Ozone occurs naturally high in the stratosphere, where it absorbs ultraviolet light, protecting us here on the surface from skin cancer. Ozone can also occur closer to the surface of the earth as a pollutant. It is formed from reactions with O2 and chemicals emitted from factories and cars. It comes in the form of smog.
So in general:
Oxygen (O2): Essential to human life
Ozone (O3) in the stratosphere: essential to protecting life on earth
Ozone (O3) on the surface of the earth: toxic to human life, caused by pollution
Answer:
A. Kinetic energy is converted to electric potential energy, and the proton moves more slowly.
Explanation:
When a moving proton is brought close to a stationary one, the kinetic energy of the moving one is converted to electric potential and the proton moves more slowly.
Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body. A moving proton will possess this form of energy.
Two protons according to coulombs law will repel each other with an electrostatic force because they both have similar charges. This will increase their electric potential energy of both of them.
Potential energy is the energy at rest of a body. As it increases, the motion of a body will be slower and it will tend towards being stationary.
