Thermal energy in the form of fire is generated by the combustion of fuel. Due to the tendency of hot air to rise upward, the heat generated rises to fill the space of the balloon. One this space is full of trapped hot air, the heat's tendency to rise causes the hot air balloon to be lifted into the air.

Sample Response: Convection is the method of thermal energy that occurs in hot air balloons. Thermal energy is transferred when the air above the flame becomes warm and less dense, and rises. Cool, dense air sinks and takes the place of the warm air that rises. The cool air is warmed by the flame, becomes less dense, and rises. This cycle continuously warms up the air in the balloon.

Which statement about images is correct? a) A virtual image cannot be formed on a screen. b) A virtual image cannot be viewed by
ankoles [38]

Answer:

A). A virtual image cannot be formed on a screen.

Explanation:

A virtual image can not be formed on a screen.

For image:

1.A virtual image can be viewed by the unaided eye.

2. A real image must be erect or maybe inverted.

3.Mirrors can produce virtual as well as real image ,it depends on which type of mirror is.

4.A virtual image can be photographed.

So the option A is correct.

A hockey stick strikes a hockey puck of mass 0.17 kg. If the force exterted on the hockey puck is 35.0 N and there is a force of
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

a=190\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Mass of a hockey puck, m = 0.17 kg

Force exerted by the hockey puck, F' = 35 N

The force of friction, f = 2.7 N

We need to find the acceleration of the hockey puck.

Net force, F=F'-f

F=35-2.7

F=32.3 N

Now, using second law of motion,

F = ma

a is the acceleration of the hockey puck

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{32.3}{0.17}\\\\a=190\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the hockey puck is 190\ m/s^2.

A gas is compressed from 600 cm3 to 200cm3 at a constant pressure of 400 kpa. at the same time, 100 j of heat energy is transfer
Mekhanik [1.2K]
The initial volume of the gas is
V_i = 600 cm^3
while its final volume is
V_f = 200 cm^3
so its variation of volume is
\Delta V = V_f - V-i = 200 cm^3 - 600 cm^3 = -400 cm^3 = -400 \cdot 10^{-6} m^3

The pressure is constant, and it is
p=400 kPa = 400 \cdot 10^3 Pa

Therefore the work done by the gas is
W=p\Delta V = (400 \cdot 10^3 Pa)(-400 \cdot 10^{-6} m^3)=-160 J
where the negative sign means the work is done by the surrounding on the gas.

The heat energy given to the gas is
Q=+100 J

And the change in internal energy of the gas can be found by using the first law of thermodynamics:
\Delta U = Q-W = 100 J - (-160 J)=+260 J
where the positive sign means the internal energy of the gas has increased.

The deuterium nucleus starts out with a kinetic energy of 1.24 × 10-13 joules, and the proton starts out with a kinetic energy o
MrMuchimi

Answer:

The total kinetic energy of both particles is 2.43\times10^{-13}

Explanation:

Given that,

Kinetic energy of nucleusK.E= 1.24\times10^{-13}\ J

Kinetic energy of proton K.E= 2.47\times10^{-13}\ J

Radius of proton r= 0.9\times10^{-15}\ m

We need to calculate the final potential energy

Using formula of final potential energy

U=\dfrac{kq^2}{r}

Put the value into the formula

U_{f}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times(1.6\times10^{-19})^2}{2\times0.9\times10^{-15}}

U_{f}=1.28\times10^{-13}\ J

We need to calculate the initial energy of both the particles

Using formula of energy

E_{i}=(K.E_{n}+K.E_{p})+U_{i}

E_{i}=1.24\times10^{-13}+2.47\times10^{-13}+0

E_{i}=3.71\times10^{-13}\ J

We need to calculate the total kinetic energy of both particles

Using conservation of energy

E_{i}=E_{f}

E_{i}=K.E_{f}+U_{f}

3.71\times10^{-13}=K.E_{f}+1.28\times10^{-13}

K.E_{f}=3.71\times10^{-13}-1.28\times10^{-13}

K.E_{f}=2.43\times10^{-13}

Hence, The total kinetic energy of both particles is 2.43\times10^{-13}

A ball is dropped from the top of a cliff. By the time it reaches the ground, all the energy in its gravitational potential ener
Bingel [31]

The ball was dropped from a height 20 meters

Explanation:

The given is

1. A ball is dropped from the top of a cliff

2. By the time it reaches the ground, all the energy in its gravitational

   potential energy store has been transferred into its kinetic energy

   store, that mean K.E = P.E

3. The ball is travelling at 20 m/s when it hits the ground

4. The gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg

We need to find the height that the ball dropped from it

The ball dropped from the top of a cliff means the initial speed is 0

→ K.E = \frac{1}{2}m(v^{2}-v_{0}^{2})

where v is the final speed, v_{0} in the initial speed and m

is the mass

→ v = 20 m/s and v_{0} = 0 m/s

→ K.E = \frac{1}{2}m(20^{2}-0^{2})

→ K.E = \frac{1}{2}m(400)

→ K.E = 200 m joules ⇒ when the ball hits the ground

→ P.E = m g h

where g is the gravitational field strength, m is the mass and h is

the height

→ g = 10 N/kg

→ P.E = m(10)(h)

→ P.E = 10 m h joules

→ P.E = K.E

→ 10 m h = 200 m

Divide both sides by 10 m

→ h = 20 meters

The ball was dropped from a height 20 meters
