<span>(50 meters) / (3 seconds) = (50/3) (meters/sec) = (16 and 2/3) meters/sec .

Speed is correct.
It's NOT velocity.
They're different things.</span>

What percentage of the original kinetic energy is convertible to internal energy?
schepotkina [342]
There would be very less percentage loss<span> of the kinetic energy during </span>the conversion<span> to internal energy, assuming that there is less air in the </span>surroundings<span>. Also, the friction will contribute to the conversion where if it is, the percentage loses is negligible.</span>

At a department store, you adjust the mirrors in the dressing room so that they are parallel and 6.2 ft apart. You stand 1.8 ft
barxatty [35]

Answer:

<em>a) 3.6 ft</em>

<em>b) 12.4 ft</em>

Explanation:

Distance between mirrors = 6.2 ft

difference from from the mirror you face = 1.8 ft

a) you stand 1.8 ft in front of the mirror you face.

According to plane mirror rules, the image formed is the same distance inside the mirror surface as the distance of the object (you) from the mirror surface. From this,

your distance from your first "front" image = 1.8 ft + 1.8 ft = <em>3.6 ft</em>

b) The mirror behind you is 6.2 - 1.8 = 4.4 ft behind you.

the back mirror will be reflected 3.6 + 4.4 = 8 ft into the front mirror,

the first image of your back will be 4.4 ft into the back mirror,

therefore your distance from your first "back" image = 8 + 4.4 = <em>12.4 ft</em>

Why is pure oxygen stored as a liquid under pressure
yKpoI14uk [10]
<h2>Answer: It is highly flammable.</h2>

Explanation:

Liquid oxygen is created from oxygen atoms that have been forced to assume the liquid state due to <u>compression (change of pressure) and temperature modification. </u>

Specifically this is achieved by cooling the oxygen enough to change it to its liquid state. So,<u> as the temperature drops, the atoms move more slowly because they have less energy. </u>

In this sense, in the liquid state it is easier to store and mobilize oxygen, taking into account that it is a highly flammable gas.

In a closed system, as kinetic energy increases, what happens to potential energy?
kupik [55]
<h2>Because kinetic energy is proportional to the velocity squared, increases in velocity will have an exponentially greater effect on translational kinetic energy. Doubling the mass of an object will only double its kinetic energy, but doubling the velocity of the object will quadruple its velocity.</h2>
