In order to solve this, we need to make use of Hess' Law.
We are already given the equations and their corresponding deltaH. Using Hess' Law, we can generate this equation:
104 kJ = x - (-1182 kJ) - (-1144 kJ)
Among the choices, the answer is
<span>B.104 = x - [(-1182) + (-1144)]

I would say D. Let me know if i am wrong.
Answer:
36.55 J
Explanation:
PE = Potential energy
KE = Kinetic energy
TE = Total energy
The following data were obtained from the question:
Position >> PE >>>>> KE >>>>>> TE
1 >>>>>>>> 72.26 >> 27.74 >>>> 100
2 >>>>>>>> 63.45 >> x >>>>>>>> 100
3 >>>>>>>> 58.09 >> 41.91 >>>>> 100
The kinetic energy of the pendulum at position 2 can be obtained as follow:
From the table above, at position 2,
Potential energy (PE) = 63.45 J
Kinetic energy (KE) = unknown = x
Total energy (TE) = 100 J
TE = PE + KE
100 = 63.45 + x
Collect like terms
100 – 63.45 = x
x = 36.55 J
Thus, the kinetic energy of the pendulum at position 2 is 36.55 J.
