Jay bought a toy car. To make the car move, he must turn a key attached to a spring. Turning the key winds the spring tight. The

toy car moves when the key id released and the spring unwinds. What’s the main transformation of energy in this example?

The main transformation of energy is from the chemical energy in Jay's body to kinetic energy in the car. The break up of the conversions is:

Chemical energy from Jay's body to elastic potential energy within the spring. Next, the spring releases and the elastic potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the toy car moves forward.

s2008m [1.1K]
The magnetic field strength in a coil is directly proportional to the number of turns, or loops, in the coil.
Therefore, when there are four loops instead of one, the magnetic field strength has increased four times, making it harder to push the magnet in.

Think about how geothermal energy is captured and used. Explain how geothermal energy shows the flow of thermal energy from hot
kumpel [21]

Answer:

People can capture geothermal energy through: Geothermal power plants, which use heat from deep inside the Earth to generate steam to make electricity. Geothermal heat pumps, which tap into heat close to the Earth's surface to heat water or provide heat for buildings

When the weather is cold, the water or refrigerant heats up as it travels through the part of the loop that's buried underground. Once it gets back above ground, the warmed water or refrigerant transfers heat into the building. The water or refrigerant cools down after its heat is transferred.

Simora [160]
The unit 'mb' means millibar which is equivalent to 1/1000 of 1 bar. To convert the units from bar to atmospheres (atm) and to inches Hg (inHg), we need to know the conversion factors.

a.) 1 atm = 1.01325 bar

0.92 mb(1 bar/1000 mbar)(1 atm/1.01325 bar) =<em> 9.08×10⁻⁴ atm</em>

b.) 1 bar = 29.53 inHg

0.92 mb(1 bar/1000 mbar)(29.53 inHg/1 bar) =<em> 0.027 inHg</em>

your drop a coin from the top of a hundred-story building(1000m). If you ignore air resistance, how fast will it be falling righ
Ede4ka [16]

consider the motion of con from top to bottom

Y = vertical displacement = 1000 m

a = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial velocity at the top = 0 m/s

v = final velocity at the bottom = ?

using the kinematics equation

v² = v²₀ + 2 aY

v² = 0² + 2 (9.8) (1000)

v = 140 m/s


t = time taken to hit the ground

Using the equation

v = v₀ + at

140 = 0 + 9.8 t

t = 14.3 sec

Which of the following diagrams involves a virtual image ?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The third diagram

Explanation:

  • <u>A virtual image</u> is an image that can not be formed on a screen.
  • <u>A convex lens</u> can form both virtual and real image depending on the position of the object from the lens.
  • A virtual image in convex lens is formed when the object is placed between the focus and the optical center of the lens.
  • In the third diagram, a virtual image is formed because the position of the object is between the focus and the optical center of the convex lens.
