1 answer:

6 0

A ball held over a person's head | a ball rolling on the floor is an example of an object that has potential energy followed by an object that has kinetic energy.

<h3>What is Kinetic energy?</h3>

This is the type of energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion or movement.

The rolling ball therefore has kinetic energy while a ball being held over a person's head has potential energy which is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position.

An element has the following natural abundances and isotopic masses: 90.92% abundance with 19.99 amu, 0.26% abundance with 20.99

sashaice [31]

<u>Answer:</u> The average atomic mass of the given element is 20.169 amu.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of the isotopes each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

$\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i$ .....(1)

We are given:

For isotope 1:

Mass of isotope 1 = 19.99 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 1 = 90.92 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 1 = 0.9092

For isotope 2:

Mass of isotope 2 = 20.99 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 2 = 0.26%

Fractional abundance of isotope 2 = 0.0026

For isotope 3:

Mass of isotope 3 = 21.99 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 3 = 8.82%

Fractional abundance of isotope 3 = 0.0882

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Average atomic mass}=[(19.99\times 0.9092)+(20.99\times 0.0026)+(21.99\times 0.0882)]$

$\text{Average atomic mass}=20.169amu$

Hence, the average atomic mass of the given element is 20.169 amu.

if heat energy is transferred from direct contact between a warm and a cold object it has been transferred by what ?

Katarina [22]

When heat energy is transferred from direct contact between a warm and a cold object , it is known as heat transfer by conduction.

In conduction, the heat transfer takes place within an object or between two objects in contact until the temperature becomes uniform. this kind of heat transfer continues until the temperature at two ends between which the heat transfer take place , becomes equal. Heat transfer takes place from point at high temperature to point at lower temperature.

A ball is launched with initial speed v from ground level up a frictionless slope (This means the ball slides up the slope witho

amid [387]

Answer:

hmax = 1/2 · v²/g

Explanation:

Hi there!

Due to the conservation of energy and since there is no dissipative force (like friction) all the kinetic energy (KE) of the ball has to be converted into gravitational potential energy (PE) when the ball comes to stop.

KE = PE

Where KE is the initial kinetic energy and PE is the final potential energy.

The kinetic energy of the ball is calculated as follows:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

Where:

m = mass of the ball

v = velocity.

The potential energy is calculated as follows:

PE = m · g · h

Where:

m = mass of the ball.

g = acceleration due to gravity (known value: 9.81 m/s²).

h = height.

At the maximum height, the potential energy is equal to the initial kinetic energy because the energy is conserved, i.e, all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy (there was no energy dissipation as heat because there was no friction). Then:

PE = KE

m · g · hmax = 1/2 · m · v²

Solving for hmax:

hmax = 1/2 · v² / g

They create a heat engine where the hot reservoir is filled with water and steam at equilibrium, and the cold reservoir is fille

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The efficiency of Carnot's heat engine is 26.8 %.

Explanation:

Temperature of hot reservoir, TH = 100 degree C = 373 K

temperature of cold reservoir, Tc = 0 degree C = 273 K

The efficiency of Carnot's heat engine is

$\eta = 1-\frac{Tc}{T_H}\\\\\eta = 1 -\frac{273}{373}\\\\\eta = 0.268 =26.8 %$

The efficiency of Carnot's heat engine is 26.8 %.
