Answer:

B) A drawn bow is released, causing an arrow to fly across the field

Explanation:

Potential energy can be thought of as "potential" to do something. For eg, putting a ball on top of hill causes the ball to have the potential to roll down the hill if released. Here the ball converts the potential energy into kinetic energy (energy of motion) to roll down.

Similarly, the bow has been stretched (potential to fly if released), and when its released, it converts the potential energy into kinetic energy.

why do we heat the test tube in a glass beaker during a chemistry experiment and not directly over a flame?

bearhunter [10]

It is not directly over a flame because it depends on the substance you might not want to heat it too much.you never know what could happen

Consider the nuclear equation below. Superscript 124 subscript 56 B a right arrow superscript 124 subscript 55 upper C s plus qu

nadezda [96]

Superscript o subscript negative 1 e.

Explanation:

The nuclear reactions is of 2 types, one is nuclear fusion and the other one is nuclear fission.

Nuclear fusion is nothing but the combining of 2 nuclei with an emission of energy along with an electron, proton or beta particle.

Nuclear fission is the break down of a nucleus into 2 or more nuclei along with an electron, proton or beta particle.

And the reaction is,

₅₆B¹²⁴ ₅₅C¹²⁴ + ₋₁e⁰

So the blank was filled by means of a beta particle.

Predict the products of the following nuclear reactions...

1. According to Rutherford and soddy's law of Beta emission:

${K}^{42} \: ---> {Ca}^{40} + {2e}^{0}$

3. According to Rutherford and soddy's law of Alpha emission:

${U}^{238} \: ---> {Th}^{234} + {He}^{4}$

4. The process in which two or more light nuclei are combined to form a single nucleus with the release of tremendous amount of energy is called a nuclear fusion. The inner core of Sun is at very high temperature and is suitable for fusion. In fact the source of energy of Sun and other stars is nuclear fusion reactions.

Which of the following equations does not represent a redox reaction?

bija089 [108]

Answer:

a. NH3+ HCl → NH4Cl

c. 2O3 → 3O2

Explanation:

A redox reaction is a reaction in which there is loss or gain of electrons. As a result of that , there is a change in the oxidation number of the species involved in the reaction.

If we look at the species shown in the answer, there isn't any change in oxidation number as we move from left to right hence they are not redox reactions.

Redox reactions lead to change in oxidation number of species from left to right.
