1. Just like vitamins, minerals help your body grow, develop, and stay healthy. The body uses minerals to perform many different functions, from building strong bones to transmitting nerve impulses. Some minerals are even used to make hormones or maintain a normal heartbeat.

2. Population growth is the increase in the number of people living in a particular area. Since populations can grow exponentially, resource depletion can occur rapidly, leading to specific environmental concerns such as global warming, deforestation and decreasing biodiversity.

Hope this helps.

When conduction electrons pass through a device with resistance, which describes their energy?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

a) their potential energy increases.

Explanation:

Ohm's Law is

R= V/I

Where R= Resistance

V= potential difference or potential energy

I= current or conduction electron flow rate

Clearly R and V are directly proportional i-e Potential energy increases with resistance.

I will mark as the brainliest answer<br><br>plz 8,9,10​
blagie [28]

Answer:

8.  acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)}  = 1 unit .

9. acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)}  = -1 unit.

10. acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)}  = 0 units.

Explanation:

8. i) acceleration = velocity / time

  ii) In this figure velocity = time

  iii) therefore acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)} = 1 unit .

9. i) acceleration = velocity / time

  ii) In this figure 4 = m + 5, therefore m = -1

     therefore velocity = (-0.5 \times time) + 5

  iii) therefore acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)}  = -1 units.

10.) velocity is constant at 2

     therefore acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)}  = 0 units

These questions !plz !! i need help!!!

(6) Wagon B is at rest so it has no momentum at the start. If <em>v</em> is the velocity of the wagons locked together, then

(140 kg) (15 m/s) = (140 kg + 200 kg) <em>v</em>

==>   <em>v</em> ≈ 6.2 m/s

(7) False. If you double the time it takes to perform the same amount of work, then you <u>halve</u> the power output:

<em>E</em> <em>/</em> (2<em>t </em>) = 1/2 × <em>E/t</em> = 1/2 <em>P</em>

A battery derives electric energy from _____energy?
sammy [17]
A). nuclear
No.  There were batteries long long before we learned
how to use nuclear energy.  Also, there is no danger of
exposure to radioactivity when you're working with a battery.

b). mechanical
No.  A battery has no moving parts.

c). gravitational
No.  No matter how high you take a battery in an airplane, or
how far you lower it into a mine-shaft, its characteristics don't
change.  In fact, batteries even work on things that are in orbit.

d). chemical
Bingo.
