What are two ways in which the suns energy can be captured and used?
My name is Ann [436]

The oldest way ... the way we've been using as long as we've been
walking on the Earth ... has been to use plants.  Plants sit out in the
sun all day, capturing its energy and using it to make chemical compounds. 
Then we come along, cut the plants down, and eat them.  Our bodies
rip the chemical compounds apart and suck the solar energy out of them,
and then we use the energy to walk around, sing, and play video games.  

Another way to capture the sun's energy is to build a dam across a creek
or a river, so that the water can't flow past it.  You see, it was the sun's
energy that evaporated the water from the ocean and lifted it high into
the sky, giving it a lot of potential energy.  The rain falls on high ground,
up in the mountains, so the water still has most of that potential energy
as it drizzles down the river to the ocean.  If we catch it on its way, we
can use some of that potential energy to turn wheels, grind our grain,
turn our hydroelectric turbines to get electrical energy ... all kinds of jobs. 

A modern, recent new way to capture some of the sun's energy is to use
photovoltaic cells.  Those are the flat blue things that you see on roofs
everywhere.  When the sun shines on them, they convert some of its
energy into electrical energy.  We use some of what they produce, and
we store the rest in giant batteries, to use when the sun is not there.

A key falls from a bridge that is 45 m above the water. the key falls straight down and lands in a model boat traveling at a con
erastova [34]

Let the key is free falling, therefore from equation of motion

h = ut +\frac{1}{2}gt^2..

Take initial velocity, u=0, so

h = 0\times t + \frac{1}{2}g t^2= \frac{1}{2}gt^2.

h = 0\times t + \frac{1}{2}g t^2= \frac{1}{2}gt^2 \\\ t =\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

As velocity moves with constant velocity of 3.5 m/s, therefore we can use formula

d= v \times t

From above substituting t,

d = v \times \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }.

Now substituting all the given values and g = 9.8 m/s^2, we get

d = 3.5 \ m/s \times \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 45 m}{9.8 m/s^2} } = 10.60 m.

Thus, the distance the boat was from the point of impact when the key was released is 10.60 m.

Does anyone know this one? Thanks
Inessa [10]

Answer:

3.844\,*\,10^5

So a=3.844 and b=5

Explanation:

Scientific notation requests to write a number using powers of ten as a factor accompanying a real number (a) between 1 and smaller than 10 that contains the digits to exactly represent the original number. So in this case, the number 384,400 can be written as:

384,400=3.844 \,*\,100,000= 3.844 \,*\,10^5

with a=3.844, and "5" as the exponent of ten (so b=5)

A projectile is launched horizontally from a height of 8.0 m. The projectile travels 6.5 m before hitting the ground.
Effectus [21]
Time it takes the projectile to hit the ground after being thrown up:

√h/1/2a

√8/(.5)(9.81)

√8/4.905

√1.630988787

= 1.277101714

= 1. 28

hope this helps :)
