Answer:

D): The Earth`s surface <u>absorbs </u><u>half</u> the sun`s energy when it reaches it.

Explanation:

When <u><em>solar energy is absorbed partially from the Earth`s surface</em></u> it is <u><em>absorbed as heat</em></u>.

Why is gravitational forces equal for everyone?
Alik [6]

That equation is Newton's universal law of gravitation. ... Any two masses exert equal-and-opposite gravitational forces on each other. If we drop a ball, the Earth exerts a gravitational force on the ball, but the ball exerts a gravitational force of the same magnitude (and in the opposite direction) on the Earth.

Ferns that eject spores generally do so in pairs, with two spores flying off in opposite directions. The structure from which th
Furkat [3]

Answer:

It cancels recoil.

Explanation:

For each action there is an equal an opposite reaction.

The principle of conservation of momentum tell us that if a single spore were ejected the fern would suffer a recoil from it. This recoil would take energy and speed from the spore. But if they are ejected in pairs the recoil is canceled and all the energy is transferred to the spores resulting in higher speeds.

<h3>What is Potential and Kinetic energy?</h3>

Potential energy is the energy that is stored in any item or system as a result of its location or component arrangement. The environment outside of the object or system, such as air or height, has no impact on it. In contrast, kinetic energy refers to the energy of moving particles inside a system or an item.

mass of rod, mab = 2.4kg

mass of rod, mbc = 4kg

conservation of energy

T_{1}  + V_{1} = T_{2}  + V_{2}

h_{ab}  = h_{bc}  = 0.18m

potential energy at position 1,

V1 = m_{ab} gh_{ab}  + m_{bc} gh_{bc}

V1 = 2.5 * 9.81 * 0.18 + 4 * 9.81 * 0.18

V1 = 11.30112

kinetic energy T1 at position 1 is zero

potential energy at position 2 is zero

K.E at position 2,

T_{2} = \frac{1}{2} l_{ab} w^{2}_{ab} +  \frac{1}{2} m_{bc} v^{2}_{G} +  \frac{1}{2} lw^{2}_{bc}

l_{ab} =\frac{m_{ab} l^{2}_{ab}  }{3}

= 1/3 *4 * (0.36)²

=0.10368kg m²

l =\frac{m_{bc} l^{2}_{bc}  }{12}

= 1/12 *4 * (0.6)²

=0.12kg m²

on putting the values in above equation we get,

T₂ = 1.0667vb²

0 + 11.30112 = 1.0667vb² + 0

vb = 3.2549 m/s
