Hello,

The energy stored in oil come from the sun. Describe how energy from the sun became stored in oil?

Well the way oil came to this earth is the fact that when the sun gave energy to plants because the energy was transferred fro the plant to the organism that eats the plant. When the organism billions of years ago ate the plants then died they would be decomposed into oil that we mine today.

Crude oil has parts of decomposed dinosaurs and plants from millions of years ago. When the sun gave energy to the plants for their growth, the dinasours ate them which is now is stored in the oil today. So the sun gave energy to plants, dinosaurs ate them, pasted away and decomposed, then we drill and use it as oil.

A 1.50-m cylinder of radius 1.10 cm is made of a complicated mixture of materials. Its resistivity depends on the distance x fro
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Resistance = 3.35*10^{-4} Ω

Explanation:

Since resistance R = ρ\frac{L}{A}

whereas \rho(x) = a + bx^2

resistivity is given for two ends. At the left end resistivity is 2.25* 10^{-8} whereas x at the left end will be 0 as distance is zero. Thus

2.25*10^{-8} = a + b(0)^2\\ 2.25*10^{-8} = a + 0 \\2.25*10^{-8} = a

At the right end x will be equal to the length of the rod, so x = 1.50\\8.50*10^{-8} = (2.25*10^{-8}) + ( b* (1.50)^2 )\\8.50*10^{-8} - (2.25*10^{-8}) = b*2.25\\\frac{6.25*10^{-8}}{2.25}  = b\\b = 2.77 *10^{-8}

Thus resistance will be R = ρ\frac{L}{A}

where A = π r^2

so,

R = \frac{8.50*10^{-8} * 1.50}{3.14*(1.10*10^{-2})^2} \\R=3.35 * 10 ^{-4}

Crazy boy [7]
It would be a really bad idea to eat the snow because you obviously are trying to stay warm right? Well, the best thing to do is melt the snow. However, the process of melting the snow would have a few complications as well. But yes, the latter idea (drinking the snow) is a better idea (not the best).

Rasek [7]

Answer:

99.95%

Explanation:

A double pulsar system named PSR J0737-3039A/B  in Puppis constellation was discovered in the year 2003. Pulsars are second most densest object in the universe after black holes and they emit radio waves at regular intervals. This pair presented a great and natural setup to test the Theory of General Relativity presented by Einstein in 1915. In this theory Einstein had presented a set of equations on how the space-time fabric will be curved because of the very dense objects such as Neutron stars. It also predicted how the gravitational waves are created because of stars orbiting each other.

A team of astrophysicists led by Michael Kramer, conducted a study on how these gravitational waves will impact the time in which the radio waves emitted by pulsars will reach Earth. The result of the study proved the theory of General Relativity to be accurate up to 99.95%.

Suppose 1 kg of Hydrogen is converted into Helium. a) What is the mass of the He produced? b) How much energy is released in thi
morpeh [17]

Answer:

a) m = 993 g

b) E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J

Explanation:

atomic mass of hydrogen = 1.00794

4 hydrogen atom will make a helium atom = 4 × 1.00794 = 4.03176

we know atomic mass of helium = 4.002602

difference in the atomic mass of helium = 4.03176-4.002602 = 0.029158

fraction of mass lost = \dfrac{0.029158}{4.03176}= 0.00723

loss of mass for 1000 g = 1000 × 0.00723 = 7.23

a) mass of helium produced = 1000-7.23 = 993 g (approx.)

b) energy released in the process

E = m c²

E = 0.00723 × (3× 10⁸)²

E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

= 236N

Explanation:

tension T = mg + ma

Given that,

m = 20kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

a = 2.0 m/s²

T = m(g + a)

T = 20( 9.8 + 2.0)

  = 20(11.8)

  = 236N
