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 1
Answer:

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.

Answer 2
Answer: 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!

A 0.4-kg toy train car moving forward at 3 m/s collides with and sticks to a 0.8–kg toy car that is traveling in the opposite direction at –2 m/s. What is the size and direction of the final velocity of the two cars

Answers

Hey there!

Seems like you're looking for the size and direction to the final velocity of the two cars. To find it, you must solve it like this.

0.4 kg(3 m/s) + 0.8kg(–2 m/s) = 1.2 kg m/s -1.6 kg m/s = –0.4 kg m/s

–0.4 kg m/s = 1.2 kg(v) = (–0.4 kg m/s)/(1.2 kg) = v = –0.33 m/s


So, the cars are traveling at -0.33 m/s in the direction of the second car.

Which part of a scientific argument must be supported by valid data? claim evidence reasoning theory

Answers

This question is a bit ambiguous because all parts of a scientific argument must be supported by valid data. However, among the choices, the closest synonym to "valid data" would be evidence. Evidence is the body of facts or information that support  a given idea.

Answer: Theory

Explanation: A claim is an interpretation based on the results of a given experiment, you first observe, and interpret the information.

Evidence is the valid data itself.

The reasoning is the approach or the "logic path" you used to reach some theory or claim.

The theory is an interpretation of the natural world, that explains why and or how some things work.

If we want to support a theory, we need to have some valid data that supports, at least, part of it, so the right answer here is theory.

Notice that claim also needs to be supported for valid data, but in the case of the claim you first get the data and then make the claim, and in the theory, the work is done in the other order.

Physics principles involved in the tablecloth trick???

Answers

Inertia: the plates over the tablecloth will try to stay in the same state of non movement. If there is minimum friction between the tablecloth and the objects standing on it, a rapid movement of the tablecloth does not change the state of the objects.

inertia is the answer haha i'm late

What aspect of a hurricane determines how much rain will fall?

Answers

The answer is:

The track of the storm determines how much rain will fall.

The explanation:

-Storm tracks are the relatively narrow zones in seas and oceans where storms travel driven by the prevailing winds.

-hurricane is a tropical cyclone with winds of 74 miles (119 kilometers) per hour or greater that occurs especially in the western Atlantic, that is usually accompanied by rain, thunder, and lightning, and that sometimes moves into temperate latitudes. and it has aspects that can cause damage, these are flood, wind, surge, heavy rains and tornadoes.

THE TRACK OF THE STORM determines how much rain will fall.
Hurricane refers to a storm with violent wind, it usually occurs in tropical Caribbean areas. Each hurricane has five essential aspects that can cause damage, these are: flood, wind, surge, heavy rains and tornadoes.

A ball of moist clay falls 15.0 m to the ground. It is in contact with the ground for 20.0 ms before stopping. (a) What is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the ball during the time it is in contact with the ground?

Answers

Answer:

a= -0.86 m/s²

The negative sign shows that ball down the ground or moving down

Explanation:

Vf² - Vo² = 2gS

where

Vf = velocity of clay as it hits the ground

Vo = initial velocity of clay = 0

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2 (constant)

S = distance travelled by clay = 15 m

Substituting appropriate values,

Vf² - 0 = 2(9.8)(15)  

Vf = 17.15 m/sec.

Formula to use is,  

V - Vf = aT

where

V = velocity of clay when it stops = 0

Vf = 17.15 m/sec (as determined above)

a = acceleration

T = 20 ms  

Put the values to find acceleration

a=(V-Vf)/T

a=(0-17.15)/20

a= -0.86 m/s²

The negative sign shows that ball down the ground
