When coal is burned,<u> Chemical </u>energy is being converted to <u>Heat/Thermal</u> energy.

As we energy is being neither created nor destroyed but transforms or converts from one form to another. In this way, chemical energy is stored in fuels like coal and when we it is burned, the energy is being converted to chemical energy.

Describe what happens to chromosomes before mitosis.
Brums [2.3K]

Explanation:

Before mitosis, the chromosomes are copied. They then coil up, and each chromosome looks like a letter X in the nucleus of the cell. The chromosomes now consist of two sister chromatids. Mitosis separates these chromatids, so that each new cell has a copy of every chromosome

1. how to find out the elecronic structure of<br> i. lithium<br> ii. potassium<br> iii. sodium
Setler [38]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

To find out the electronic structure of each element, you must know the number of electrons it contains.

If you find that out(the number of electrons in the neutral atom of an element is the same as its atomic number). Then you arrange those electrons in such a way that the first shell has only two electrons and subsequent shells have eight electrons.

Look up the groups to which the elements belong in the periodic table All the elements are in group 1 so the last shell must have only one electron.

A 1,000 kg car is moving at 20 m/s, and slams into a building before coming to a halt.
ale4655 [162]

Hi there!

We can calculate linear momentum using the following:
\large\boxed{p = m v}

p = linear momentum (kgm/s)
m = mass (kg)
v = velocity (m/s)

Calculate:

p = 1000 * 20 = 20000 kg\frac{m}{s}

Now, we can relate force, time, and momentum with the following:
\large\boxed{I = Ft}\\\\

I = Impulse (kgm/s)
F = Force (N)
t = time (s)

Rearrange to solve for force:
F = \frac{I}{t}

The impulse is equal to the change in momentum. Since the car comes to a halt, all of its momentum is lost, so:

I = \Delta p = p_f - p_i = 0 - 20000 = -20000

Solve:
F = \frac{-20000}{0.5} = \boxed{-40000N}

**Negative force since the positive direction is towards the wall, and the negative direction is away from the wall.
