Magnetic Levitation (maglev) trains use electricity to generate magnetic fields. How are these magnetic fields related to the forward motion of the train? A) Electricity is used to generate a magnetic field opposite that of the train so the train is pulled forward along a frictionless surface. B) Electricity is used to generate a magnetic field of the same polarity as that at the base of the train. This elevates the train and also moves it forward. C) Electricity generates a magnetic field as it flows through coils on the train. A large electromagnetic at the opposite end of the track pulls the train to its destination and lifts it off the track. D) A current below the train generates a magnetic field that levitates the train, by using the repulsion of like charges. Electricity flows through coils on the side of the track, as the current alternates it pulls the train forward and pushes it from the back.

-first use of geothermal energy occurred more than 10,000 years ago in north america by american paleo-indians

-the first industrial use of geothermal energy began near pisa, italy in late 18th century

-in 1904, italian scientist piero ginori conti invented the first geothermal electric power plant in which steam was used to generate the power

-with the above experiment, the first geothermal plant in usa started in 1922 with a capacity of 250 kilowatts

-however, in 1946 first ground-source geothermal heat pump installed at commonwealth building in portland, oregon

-during the 1960’s, pacific gas and electric began operation of first large scale geothermal power plant in san francisco, producing 11 megawatts

-in 1973, when oil crisis began many countries began looking for renewable energy sources and by 1980’s geothermal heat pumps (ghp) started gaining popularity in order to reduce heating and cooling costs

-as effect of climate change started showing results, governments of various countries joined hands to fight against it, for which kyoto protocol was signed in japan in 1997, laid out emission targets for rich countries and required that they transfer funds and technology to developing countries, 184 countries have ratified it

hope this

the force represented by vector a is normal force. if the hockey puck is moving to the right, when it is hit with a significant force by the hockey stick the puck will move off in a different direction. correct on edge.

1.   what is light?

light is an electromagnetic wave visible to the human eye. 

2. what is a reflection?

the rebounding of a light ray when it hits a mirror.

3. what is the incident ray?

contacts the surface of an object.

4. what is the reflected ray?

bounces off a reflective surface.

5. what is the normal ray?

perpendicular to the surface of a mirror.

6. what is the angle of incidence?

an angle formed by the incident ray and the normal.

7. what is the angle of reflection?

an angle formed by the reflected ray and the normal.

8. what is refraction?

(bending.)

9. what is a converging lens?

bring together light rays that pass through.

10. what is a diverging lens?

spreads out light passing through.

11. focal point?

the real point where the refracted rays meet when the incident rays run parallel.
