Why does a moving object come to a stop on a frictional surface? a.The object’s kinetic energy is transformed into mainly heat energy. b.The object’s potential energy is transformed into mainly kinetic energy. c.The object loses all its energy in deformation. d.The object’s kinetic energy is transformed into mainly potential energy.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The correct answer to the question is - A) Object's kinetic energy is transformed into mainly heat energy.

EXPLANATION:

The friction is the opposing force which acts tangentially between two surfaces when there is a relative velocity between them.

As per the question, the moving object comes to rest after the application of frictional force.

Initially the object is in motion.Hence, the energy possessed by the moving object is kinetic energy.

When frictional force is applied on the moving object, the kinetic energy of the moving object will be converted into mainly heat energy. It is due to the fact that friction causes heat production between two surfaces in contact.

Hence, correct option will be that the object's kinetic energy is transformed into mainly heat energy.

Answer 2
Answer: A) the objects kinetic energy is transformed into mainly heat energy

That "heat energy" is called fricton

What factors affect the strength of the electric force between two objects

Answers

There are three factors:

The charge of the two objects. The electric force is proporcional to the product of the charges of both objects.

The distance that separetes them. The electric force is proportional to the inverse of the squared distance that separates the objects.

The media. The electric force constant of proportionality depends on the media: air, water, oil, glass.

Answer:c or 3 or the distance between the objects and the amount of charge on the objects

Fossil fuels currently account for the majority of the world’s energy use because they are A. distributed evenly throughout the world. B. nonpolluting. C. renewable energy resources. D. relatively inexpensive and readily available

Answers

Answer: D. relatively inexpensive and readily available

Fossil fuels are non-renewable sources of energy these resources formed by the geological processes occurring in the earth. It takes millions of years for their formation. These includes coal, petroleum, and natural gas. Unfortunately, the distribution of these resources is not even in the regions of the world but efforts have been done by the humans to make them available everywhere. They are relatively inexpensive and readily available this contributes to the majority of the world's energy use.

Fossil fuels currently account for the majority of the world’s energy use because they are relatively inexpensive and readily available.

In short, Your Answer would be Option D

Hope this helps!

What is difference between kilowatt and kilowatt hour?

Answers

Those two units can be compared to a 'mile per hour' and a 'mile per hour - hour'.
One is a rate.  The other is a quantity, after maintaining a rate for some time.

-- 'Joule' is a unit of energy.  It's the amount of work (energy) you do
when you push with a force of 1 newton though a distance of 1 meter.
Lifting 10 pound of beans 3 feet off the floor takes about 40.7 joules of energy.

-- 'Watt' is a rate of using energy . . . 1 joule per second.
If you lift 10 pounds 3 feet off the floor in 1 second, your power is 40.7 watts.

-- 'Watt-second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 1 joule.

-- 'Watt-hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 3,600 joules.

-- 'Kilowatt' is a bigger rate of using energy . . . 1,000 joules per second.

-- 'Kilowatt - second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 1,000 joules .

-- 'Kilowatt - hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 3,600,000 joules .

Depending on where you live, 3,600,000 joules of energy bought
from the electric company costs something between 5¢ and 25¢.


Kilowatt hour is a measure of ENERGY
Kilowatt is a measure of POWER

Scientists have observed that the average sunspots have increased in the last 50 years. Which of these statements best describes an effect of this increase in sunspots? A) Earth's temperature has become cooler.
B) Earth's temperature has not changed over time.
C) Earth's temperature has become warmer.
D) Earth's temperature has reduced by fifty times.

Answers

Answer:

Earth's temperature has become cooler

Explanation:

The number of sunspots, as you have learned, can indicate whether the sun is in a maximum-activity period or a minimum-activity period. Some scientists believe this can have an overall effect on the climate of Earth.

The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "B) Earth's temperature has not changed over time." Scientists have observed that the average sunspots have increased in the last 50 years. The statement that best describes an effect of this increase in sunspots Earth's temperature has not changed over time. 

The transuranium synthesis process involves creating a transuranium element through ____.A.) The synthesis of heavy elements
B.) The transmutation of a lighter element
C.) The transmutation of uranium
