D) although recent research (1990's) has shown Uranus and Neptune to be ice giants and have heavier substances.
Answer: mass x height x gravitational field strength (g)
note: gravitational field strength (g) = 10 N/Kg
55 x 15 x 10 = 8250
gpe = 8250j
Explanation:
Answer:
even if it all could be used, it wouldn't be enough
Explanation:
The land area of the US is about 5.45% of the world's area, so the amount of released heat over the area of the US is on the order of 2.4 Tw. Current technology for converting geothermal energy to electricity is about 12% efficient, so the available energy might amount to 0.29 Tw if it could all be captured.
Energy consumption in the US in 2019 was on the order of 0.46 Tw. This suggests that even if <em>all</em> of the thermal energy radiated by the Earth from the US could be turned to useful forms of energy, it would meet only about 60% of the US need for energy.
I believe they are called nonohmic materials. According to ohms law the current trough a current carrying conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference (voltage) at a constant resistance. Non-ohmic conductors or materials are those materials that do not obey the ohms law, their resistance increases as the current increases. Ohmic materials are those that obeys the ohms law such that the voltage and current are proportional- doubling the potential difference doubles the current.
