The job that the fan is designed and built to do is to convert the electrical energy it uses into the kinetic (motion) energy of moving air.

I can't really guarantee that it accomplishes that with MOST of the electrical energy it uses, because I don't know how efficient your fan is. For example, if it's a really old fan, and one blade has the end broken off, and a lot of dust and mosquitoes have gotten into the motor, and it shakes and vibrates and makes a lot of noise when it's running, then it's converting a lot of the electrical energy into thermal energy (it gets hot when it runs) and some into sound energy too.

If you can live without the word "most" in the question, then we can assume that the fan is well designed and running like a top, and the answer is definitely choice-B .

A cement factory emits 900 kilograms of CO2 to produce 1,000 kilograms of cement. A fully grown tree removes six kilograms of CO
Dmitriy789 [7]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

To make the factory carbon neutral, the owners need to grow<em><u> 15000 trees</u></em> over an area of land measuring <em><u>75 acres</u></em>

<h3><u>Explanation and solution;</u></h3>

From the information;

900 kg CO2 = 1000 kg Cement

1 tree = 6 kg CO2

1 acre = 200 trees

<em>100000 kg Cement will require;</em>

<em>=(900 × 100000)/1000</em>

<em>= 90,000 kg of CO2</em>

<em>But 1 tree = 6 kg of CO2</em>

<em>Number of trees = 90,000/6</em>

<em>                            = 15,000 trees </em>

<em>But, 1 acre = 200 trees</em>

<em>Number of acres = 15,000/200</em>

<em>                             = 75 acres of land </em>

Therefore;

To make the factory carbon neutral, the owners need to grow<em><u> 15000 trees</u></em> over an area of land measuring <em><u>75 acres</u></em>

molecular cloud <interstellar cloud <1 Msun protostar <1 Msun star <intercloud gas

Explanation:

<u>Molecular cloud-</u> They are a variety of interstellar cloud in which molecular hydrogen can sustain themselves. They have a very low temperature ranging from -440 to -370 degrees Fahrenheit or between<u> 10 to 50 Kelvin. </u>Owing to their extremely low temperature, they appear mostly dark when viewed through telescopes.

<u>Interstellar cloud-</u> They are a congregation of a large number of interstellar gases, dust and plasma in any galaxy or universe. They have varying temperature depending on their proximity to a star. E.g. Neutral hydrogen atom clouds have a temperature of around <u>just 100 Kelvin</u> while those in the near vicinity of a star have temperatures as high as 10,000 Kelvin.

<u>1 Msun star-</u> These stars have temperature anywhere between <u>5300 and 6000 Kelvin</u>. The main source of such high surface temperature is nuclear fusion process where elemental hydrogen molecules are fused to form helium molecules.  

<u>1 Msun protostar-</u> protostar is rather a young star which is still in formation phase (i.e. gathering mass from the parent molecular cloud). They have temperature anywhere between <u>2000-3000</u> kelvin and are accompanied by dust usually.

<u>Intercloud gas- </u>These are the remainder gases that are spread throughout the interstellar space. This Intercloud gas is divided into warm intercloud medium and extremely hot coronal gas with temperatures comparing to Sun’s corona. Warm intercloud forms the dominant part of intercloud gas with a temperature around <u>8000 Kelvin</u>.

A certain humidifier operates by raising water to the boiling point and then evaporating it. Every minute 30 g of water at 20◦ C
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The value of total energy needed per minute for the humidifier = 77.78 KJ

Explanation:

Total energy per minute the humidifier required = Energy required to heat water to boiling point) + Energy required to convert liquid water into vapor at the boiling point) ----- (1)

Specific heat of water = 4190 \frac{J}{kg k}

The heat of vaporization is =  2256 \frac{KJ}{kg}

Mass = 0.030 kg

Energy needed to heat water to boiling point =  m c ( T_{2} - T_{1} )

Energy needed to heat water to boiling point = 0.030 × 4.19 × (100 - 20)

Energy (E_{1}) = 10.08 KJ

Energy needed to convert liquid water into vapor at the boiling point

E_{2} = 0.030 × 2256 = 67.68 KJ

Thus the total energy needed E =  E_{1} + E_{2}

E = 10.08 + 67.68

E = 77.78 KJ

This is the value of total energy needed per minute for the humidifier.

A cube with edges exactly 2 cm long is made of material with a bulk modulus of 3.5 x 109 n/m2. when it is subjected to a pressur
Igoryamba

As we know by the formula of bulk modulus

B = \frac{\Delta P}{-\Delta V/V}

now we can rearrange it as

\Delta V/V = -\frac{\Delta P}{B}

V_f - V = -V\frac{\Delta P}{B}

now the final volume after pressure is applied is given as

V_f = V(1 - \frac{\Delta P}{B})

now we know that

\Delta P = 3 \times 10^5 Pa

V = 2^3 cm^3 = 8 cm^3

B = 3.5 \times 10^9 N/m^2

now plug in all data

V_f = 8(1 - \frac{3 \times 10^5}{3.5 \times 10^9})

V_f = 7.999 cm^3

so volume is above after pressure is applied over it
