Explain how energy can escape from the water by convection,

1 answer:

6 0

As the molecules at the surface of a liquid absorb heat, they begin to move around more quickly. This gives them the energy to break the bonds that connect them to other water molecules. When the molecules are moving fast enough, they are able to "escape." They leave the surface of the liquid as gas molecules.

It will possibly be A) chemical b/c it can make a sound like when the bar hits the ball it makes a sound correct?! and also it created heat especially when it hits the ball. and when the ball MOVES and the bar HITS it creates kinetic energy, but when you hit the ball it doesn’t create a new substance.

B. Energy

A power company charges its customers for electricity based upon B. Energy.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Kilo-watt Hours (kWh) is the unit that measures the electricity consumption of customers. Since Power is defined as the rate at which electrical energy is transferred by an electrical circuit per unit time,

$P = \frac{E}{t} \\E= P\times t$

If energy is transmitted at a constant rate over a period of time, the total energy in kilowatt hours is the product of power in kilowatts(kW) and time in hours (h)

$1\ kWh = 3.6\times 10^6\ Joules$
