Answer:
the second law of thermodynamics. that some energy is destroyed in every energy conversion.
Explanation:
According to the second law of thermodynamics, energy conversion is never 100% efficient. Some energy is always lost as it is being converted from one form to the other.
The fact that a steer must eat at least 100 pounds of grain to gain less than 10 pounds of muscle tissue shows that not all the energy taken up from the grain is channelled towards building the muscle tissue. Some energy from the grains are lost on the way according to the second law of thermodynamics.
Answer:
1) not so long (maybe an hour or two)
2) access to information through the internet will be most affected if my computer and mobile phone run out of battery power.
3) yes, one should prepare for power outage. This can be done by having a standby alternative source of power like the use of inverters that stores electrical energy in form of chemical energy, and small internal combustion engine powered electric generators.
4) solar panels can be used to draw power from incident sun rays, this power can be stored in an inverter for future use in case of a power outage.
5) energy from the sun is converted into direct current which is then supplied to an accumulator in the opposite direction to its flow of current. When the energy is needed, it can be used directly, or converted to an alternating current. This is achieved by connecting its terminal to the supply. Electric field is generated by flow of ions and electrons within the working chemical (e.g lithium).
Explanation:
There will not be enough momentum from the first hill to cross another hill if he same or larger size because of the way potential energy and kinetic energy works it will not be able go as high as it could go on he fist hill.
Answer:
Because it can easily resist air resistance.
Explanation:
Since air resistance is not negligible, the crumpled paper will reach the ground first because it can easily resist air resistance surrounding it compare to the un-crumpled one that will be influenced by the air thereby causing the un-crumpled paper to spend more time in the air
