How does mechanical energy ( potential and kinetic energy ) determine the motion of an object?

Chemistry

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Motion can simply be defined as the change in position of a body while energy is the ability or capacity to work.

Mechanical energy is one of the forms of energy and is subdivided into potential energy and kinetic energy. These energies are energies that determine whether a body or an object is moving or not.

When a body is in a position, the energy possessed by such body by virtue of its position is known as potential energy while when a body is moving (in motion), the energy possesses by this body by virtue of its motion is the kinetic energy.

For instance, a ball rolling down an inclined plane is initially at rest at the top of the incline showing that the body has maximum potential energy and zero kinetic energy (since the body is in a position at this point).

As the ball rolls down the incline, it gains momentum and its kinetic energy keeps increasing along the plane while the potential energy keeps decreasing. Once the body gets to the bottom of the plane, the kinetic energy becomes zero while the potential energy is at maximum (because the body is at rest at this point as well).

GalinKa [24]

I can said that this atom is in an excited state because the second level has 7 electrons in place of 8 electrons and may be one of the two electrons in the third level. I can't explain why this atom is electrically neutral without knowing the number of protons.

Answer:

Oxygen needed for Stannous Oxide: 1.350g

Oxygen needed for Stannic Oxide: 2.710g

Explanation:

You're working with 10.00 grams of Tin mass for both Stannous Oxide and Stannic Oxide.

- 10.00 grams of Tin for Stannous Oxide is already 88.10% of the mass needed. You need to find how much 11.90% of Oxygen mass is needed to create the compound. Find a factor that you can multiply 88.10% by to get 100%

- 88.10 * x = 100

- Solve for x and you get 1.135

- Multiply that number by the mass of Tin (10.00 grams) to get the complete compound (Mixture of Tin and Oxygen).

- 10.00g * 1.135 = 11.35g (Tin + Oxygen)

- Subtract (Compound - Tin) to find Oxygen

- 11.35g - 10.00g = 1.350g (Oxygen)

Repeat the process with Stannic Oxide

- Find the factor that gets 78.70% to 100%

- 100/78.70 = 1.271

- Multiply by Tin mass

- 10.00g * 1.271 = 12.71g (Compound)

- Subtract Compound by Tin

- 12.71g - 10.00g = 2.710g (Oxygen)
