Answer:

"Energy deficiency, no coal-burning, no-cost mining pollution" is the correct answer.

Explanation:

“The greenest kilowatt-hour seems to be the one this really doesn't should use,” explained Joe Stepenovitch, co-owner as well as COO of something like the electricity IQ Group. Whether a kilowatt becomes generated is far less essential instead of not needing to do something with it.
It, therefore, reduces operational costs, appeals to progressives and green-conscious consumers, prepares the business for impending emissions reductions policy caps, as well as coincides with you including an imminent future focused on renewable energy sources.

An object that weighs 2.450 N is attached to an ideal massless spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period o

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 24.1 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the object, W = 2.45 N

Time period of oscillation of simple harmonic motion, T = 0.64 s

To find,

Spring constant of the spring.

Solution,

In case of simple harmonic motion, the time period of oscillation is given by :

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$

m is the mass of object

$m=\dfrac{W}{g}$

$m=\dfrac{2.45}{9.8}$

m = 0.25 kg

$k=\dfrac{4\pi^2m}{T^2}$

$k=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 0.25}{(0.64)^2}$

k = 24.09 N/m

k = 24.11 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 24.1 N/m.

Two large parallel conducting plates carrying opposite charges of equal magnitude are separated by 2.20 cm. Part A If the surfac

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

5308.34 N/C

Explanation:

Given:

Surface density of each plate (σ) = 47.0 nC/m² = $47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2$

Separation between the plates (d) = 2.20 cm

We know, from Gauss law for a thin sheet of plate that, the electric field at a point near the sheet of surface density 'σ' is given as:

$E=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}$

Now, as the plates are oppositely charged, so the electric field in the region between the plates will be in same direction and thus their magnitudes gets added up. Therefore,

$E_{between}=E+E=2E=\frac{2\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}$

Now, plug in $47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2$ for 'σ' and $8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m$ for $\epsilon_0$ and solve for the electric field. This gives,

$E_{between}=\frac{47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2}{8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m}\\\\E_{between}= 5308.34\ N/C$

Therefore, the electric field between the plates has a magnitude of 5308.34 N/C

A helicopter travels west at 80 mph. It is moving above a car traveling on a highway at 80 mph. Given this information, you can

gavmur [86]

Answer:

d. at the same velocity

Explanation:

I will assume the car is also travelling westward because it was stated that the helicopter was moving above the car. In that case, it depends where the observer is. If the observer is in the car, the helicopter would look like it is standing still ( because both objects have the same velocity). If the observer is on the side of the road, both objects would be travelling at the same velocity. Also recall that, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes but speed is the rate at which object covers distance and it is not direction wise. Hence velocity is the best option.

The eyes of amphibians such as frogs have a much flatter cornea but a more strongly curved (almost spherical) lens than do the e

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

0.2cm towards the retina.

Explanation:

the focal length of the frog eye is

(1/f) = (1/10) + (1/0.8)

f = 0.74cm

Since the distance of the object is 15cm Hence

(1/0.74) = (1/15) + (1/V)

V = 0.78cm

Therefore the distance the retina is to move is

0.78cm - 0.8cm = 0.02cm towards the retina.
