Answer: force of gravity on the body due to height difference above the earth's surface

Explanation: as you increase the height of a body above ground, you do work against gravity in moving it from a point on the earth's surface to that point. So a body falling has a stored up gravito-potential energy which acts on it downward due to its mass, accelerating it downwards

Answer b): kinetic energy of the body

Explanation: the downward force produces an acceleration of magnitude 9.81m/s2 downwards which means an increasing velocity. This increasing velocity means the kinetic energy of the body is increasing (kinetic energy is proportional to velocity of the body squared)

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

-13.18°C

Explanation:

To develop the problem it is necessary to consider the concepts related to the thermal conduction rate.

Its definition is given by the function

\frac{Q}{t} = \frac{kA\Delta T}{d}

Where,

Q = The amount of heat transferred

t = time

k = Thermal conductivity constant

A = Cross-sectional area

\Delta T = The difference in temperature between one side of the material and the other

d= thickness of the material

The problem says that there is a loss of heat twice that of the initial state, that is

Q_2 = 2*Q_1

Replacing,

kA\frac{\Delta T_m}{x} = 2*kA\frac{\Delta T}{x}

\frac{\Delta T}{x}=2*\frac{\Delta T}{x}

\frac{T_i-T_o}{x} = 2\frac{T_1-T_2}{x}

\frac{28.9-T_o}{x} = 2\frac{28.9-7.86}{x}

Solvinf for T_o,

T_o = -13.18

Therefore the temprature at the outside windows furface when the heat lost per second doubles is  -13.18°C

A boat traveled 280 miles downstream and back. The trip downstream took 7 hours. Trip back took 14 hours. What is the speed of t
avanturin [10]
Assuming 280 miles is the total distance travelled:
Let b = boat speed in still water
Let c = current speed.
For the downstream trip the speed is b + c. In 7 hours at the speed of (b + c) mph the boat travels 140 miles.
7(b + c) = 140 .............(1)
For the upstream trip the speed is b - c. In 14 hours at the speed of (b - c) mph the boat travels 140 miles.
14(b - c) = 140 ............(2)
The left hand sides of equations (1) and (2) are equal. Therefore we can write
7b + 7c = 14b - 14c ...........(3)
Rearranging equation (3) we get
21c = 7b
c = b/3 .......................(4)
The value for c obtained in equation (4) should now be substituted into equation (1) which can then be solved to find the value of b.

100 POINTS! I will mark brainliest! Record your hypothesis as an “if, then” statement for the rate of dissolving the compounds:
love history [14]

Answer:

<u><em>Rate of dissolving compounds:</em></u>

If we increase the temperature of the solution, then the dissolving compound would dissolve more easily.

<u><em>Boiling Point of Compounds:</em></u>

If the inter-molecular forces of any compound is really strong, then the boiling point of the compound would be really high.
