Answer: the air above a wildfire

Explanation:

First part of question is: The diagram shows currents that form as water is heated.

When water is being heated from below, convection currents are used. This happens when the molecules at the bottom are heated thus giving them energy and enabling them rise to the surface. The colder water at the surface will therefore sink to the bottom where is is heated making it rise as well and the process is repeated.

When a wildfire is ignited, the concept is the same. The air above the wildfire is the water in this scenario. It is heated at the bottom and rises thereby forcing the air above to come down and be heated as well. Both situations uses convectional currents.

Anestetic [448]

Answer: the density changed, the salt dissolved in the water, the salt and the water can still be separated into their individual molecules.

Explanation: physical changes are changes in size, shape, or state. Another way to think about a physical change is any change not involving a change in the substance’s chemical identity. You cannot write a chemical equation for salt water because the chemical identity is still salt AND water

Krista is playing tennis at the park. When the tennis ball flies toward her, Krista hits the ball with her racket, which causes
xenn [34]

Answer:

B. When the racket hits the tennis ball with a force, the tennis ball applies an equal but opposite force to the racket.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's third law of motion every action has equal and opposite reaction. So, when the force is applied by the racket on the ball then the ball also applies an equal intensity of force in the opposite direction on the racket. It is just that the the force on the racket is absorbed by the player holding it.

aksik [14]

Answer:

2.77 * 10^5 m/s

Explanation:

Let us recall that kinetic energy is given by 1/2 mv^2

Where;

m = mass of the body

v = velocity of the body

In this case,

m = 3.38 * 10^31 kg

KE= 1.30 * 10^42 J

KE = 1/2 mv^2

v = √2KE/m

v = √2 * 1.30 * 10^42/3.38 * 10^31

v = √7.69 * 10^10

v = 2.77 * 10^5 m/s

A parallel plate air capacitor has a capacitance of 10 to the power -9. What potential difference is required for a charge of 5×
Maurinko [17]

The potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules

<h3>What is the energy in a capacitor?</h3>

The energy stored in a capacitor is an electrostatic potential energy.

It is related to the charge(Q) and voltage (V) between the capacitor plates.

It is represented as 'U'.

<h3>How to determine the potential difference</h3>

Formula:

Potential difference, V is the ratio of the charge to the capacitance of a capacitor.

It is calculated using:

V = Q ÷ C

Where Q = charge 5 × 10∧-5C and C = capacitance 10∧-9

Substitute the values into the equation

Potential difference, V = 5 × 10∧-5 ÷  10∧-9 = 5 × 10∧4 volts

<h3>How to determine the energy stored</h3>

Formula:

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 (QV)

Where Q= charge and V = potential difference across the capacitor

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 ( 5 × 10∧-5 × 5 × 10∧4)

= 0.5 × 25 × 10∧-1

= 0.5 × 2.5

= 1. 25 Joules

Therefore, the potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules
