Answer:
because the strength of Earth's gravitational field is not uniform everywhere, a given pendulum swings faster, and thus has a shorter period, at low altitudes and at Earth's poles than it does at high altitudes and at the Equator.
Driving a motor........
chemical energy is converted into kinetic energy.
Falling off of cliff
.........gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
Hydroelectric energy generation
.......gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy (i.e. driving a generator), which is then converted into electrical energy.
Nuclear power generation
.........mass is converted into energy, which then drives a steam turbine, which is then converted into electrical energy.
I believe the last one about the bike is correct.
Answer:
i) Telescopes can be used to view far distant objects but the human eye can't view far distant objects.
ii) Telescopes uses two convex lenses producing a magnified image while the human eye only possesses one convex lens (image seen are smaller than that viewed under telescopes)
Explanation:
The telescopes can be used to view far distant objects due to their presence of two convex lenses. The two convex lenses are the objective lens (lens closer to object) and the eye piece lens (lens closer to eye). The object to be viewed forms an intermediate image first before the final image is seen using the eye piece lens.
The human eye only possess one convex lens and as such cannot view far ranged objects.
Answer: 11 km/h at 339° compass
Explanation:
A sees B moving south at 0 km/h
A is moving north at 12cos30 = 10.392 km/h
Therefore B must be moving north at 10.392 k/h
A is moving east at 12sin30 = 6 km/h
B appears to be moving west at 10 km/h
Therefore B must be moving west at 10 - 6 = 4 km/h
B is moving v = √(4² + 10.392²) = 11.135... 11 km/h
θ = arctan( -4 / 10.392) = -21.05 = 339°
