Define kinetic energy and thermal energy. Describe what happens to each as the temperature of a substances increases.

The us government wants to allocate billions of dollars in the next 10 years to assure our future energy security. the funds will be spread among a variety of possible energy resources. where do you think the government should put the greatest support: solar energy, wind energy, clean coal, oil exploration, gas exploration, or a combination of sources? are there other efforts that should be explored? support your position with cited information for both questions.

If there's a small amount of friction between two surfaces, the result could be select all that applya. no movement b. heatc. a little bit of movementd. sliding around

Acommon technique in analysis of scientific data is normalization. the purpose of normalizing data is to eliminate irrelevant constants that can obscure the salient features of the data. the goal of this experiment is to test the hypothesis that the flux of light decreases as the square of the distance from the source. in this case, the absolute value of the voltage measured by the photometer is irrelevant; only the relative value conveys useful information. suppose that in part 2.2.2 of the experiment, students obtain a signal value of 162 mv at a distance of 4 cm and a value of 86 mv at a distance of 5.7 cm. normalize the students' data to the value obtained at 4 cm. (divide the signal value by 162.) then calculate the theoretically expected (normalized) value at 5.7 cm.
