If all the energy she put into bending the bow is completely
transmitted to the arrow, then the arrow has the 100 joules
of kinetic energy when it leaves the bow.

                 Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

                         100 J        = (1/2) (0.5 kg) (speed²)

Divide each side by 0.25 kg:    100 J / 0.25 kg = speed²

 [ joule ] = [ newton-meter ] = kg-m²/sec²

                                                100 kg-m²/sec² / 0.25 kg = speed²

                                                 400 m²/sec² = speed²

Take the square root of each side:     speed = √400 m/s

                                                                                20 m/s

                                                                    (about 44.7 mph)

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The chemical formula for the molecule is C_4H_9O_2

Explanation :

Molecular formula : It is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Structural formula : It is a formula in which the lines are used between the bonded atoms and the atoms are also shown in the structural formula.

In the structural formula, the lines are used between the atoms.

As per given information of compound we conclude that, there are 4 carbon atoms, 9 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms.

Thus, the chemical formula for the given molecule will be,  C_4H_9O_2
