Answer:
B. Millions of years of high pressure and temperature.
- Millions of years of high pressure and temperature the ancient forests turn into fossil fuels.
Explanation:
Fossil fuels were formed from the dead remains of living organisms millions of years ago. They were formed under high pressure and high temperature.
- Coal : about 300 million years ago the earth had this forest in low lying wetland areas. Due to natural processes like flooding, these forest god buried under the soil. As more soil deposited over them, they were compressed. Under high pressure and high temperature, dead plants got slowly converted into coal.
- Petroleum : Petroleum was formed from organisms living in the sea. As these organisms died, their bodies settled at the bottom of the sea and got covered with layers of soil and clay. Over millions of years, absence of air, high pressure and high temperature transformed the dead organisms into Petroleum.
Coal, Petroleum and natural gas are fossil fuels.
The ball is traveling in the + x direction at 8m per second. After 20 seconds it has moved 160m forward from the spot where it was tossed.
Answer:
The maximum altitude reached with respect to the ground = 0.5 + 0.510 = 1.01 km
Explanation:
Using the equations of motion,
When the rocket is fired from the ground,
u = initial velocity = 0 m/s (since it was initially at rest)
a = 10 m/s²
The engine cuts off at y = 0.5 km = 500 m
The velocity at that point = v
v² = u² + 2ay
v² = 0² + 2(10)(500) = 10000
v = 100 m/s
The velocity at this point is the initial velocity for the next phase of the motion
u = 100 m/s
v = final velocity = 0 m/s (at maximum height, velocity = 0)
y = vertical distance travelled after the engine shuts off beyond 0.5 km = ?
g = acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²
v² = u² + 2gy
0 = 100² + 2(-9.8)(y)
- 19.6 y = - 10000
y = 510.2 m = 0.510 km
So, the maximum altitude reached with respect to the ground = 0.5 + 0.510 = 1.01 km
Hope this helps!!!
