When the bat touches the ball, the kinetic energy from the bat gets transfered and stored in the ball as elastic potential energy. A part of the ball is compressed when the energy is being stored and as per the hooke’s law it uses its potential energy to decompress  The decompression results in the ball pushing the surface of bat and the ball bounces away with the potential energy transfering back into kinetic energy.

The right option is; b. mechanical

Mechanical energy is the best description of the energy of the ball as it flies over the pitcher’s head.

Mechanical energy is the energy that an object acquires due to its position or due to its motion. From the question, the baseball player has chemical potential energy (stored as food) which is transformed into work. As the baseball player hits the ball, there is energy exchange in which the ball acquires energy to perform its work. The energy obtained by the ball upon which work is done is called mechanical energy.

Which of the following is the correct wedge and dash conformation for the following Newman projection?
kakasveta [241]

We have that  the correct wedge and dash conformation for the following Newman projection is

IV

From the Diagrams above

Two CH_3 groups points on opposite sides in plane

Two Br are on same side  of plane

Two H also on same side of the plane so the plausible  structure is IV

Therefore

The Correct option is IV

Well for a start, this makes absolutely no sense, "discovered a fuel that burns so hot that it becomes cold." 

<span>And yes, it's not science if the experiment can't be repeated. In fact they should WANT it to be repeated so that you can get credit for discovering something new and then possibly harness this effect to produce useful applications. </span>

<span>For all we know they had a fewer of LN2 in the lab that got shredded by the blast, LN2 could certainly have frozen many things (not metal though, since metal is already solid at room temperature, (except for mercury)), and afterwards would leave no trace.</span>

in example 5.11 of the text the molar volume of n2 at STP is given as 22.42 L/mol how is this number calculatd how does the mola
Valentin [98]

Answer:

V = 22.42 L/mol

N₂ and H₂ Same molar Volume at STP

Explanation:

Data Given:

molar volume of N₂ at STP = 22.42 L/mol

Calculation of molar volume of N₂ at STP  = ?

Comparison of molar volume of H₂ and N₂ = ?

Solution:

Molar Volume of Gas:

The volume occupied by 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure and it is always equal to 22.42 L/ mol

Molar volume can be calculated by using ideal gas formula  

                               PV = nRT

Rearrange the equation for Volume

                            V = nRT / P . . . . . . . . . (1)

where

P = pressure

V = Volume

T= Temperature

n = Number of moles

R = ideal gas constant

Standard values

P = 1 atm

T = 273 K

n = 1 mole

R = 0.08206 L.atm / mol. K

Now put the value in formula (1) to calculate volume for 1 mole of N₂

                   V = 1 x 273 K x 0.08206 L.atm / mol. K / 1 atm

                   V = 22.42 L/mol

Now if we look for the above calculation it will be the same for H₂ or any gas. so if we compare the molar volume of 1 mole N₂ and H₂ it will be the same at STP.

What is the density of a 6 g of pure copper with a volume of 12 mL?
Sati [7]

Answer:

The density of copper is 0.5 g/mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of copper = 6 g

Volume of copper = 12 mL

Density of copper = ?

Solution:

Formula:

d = m/v

d = density

m = mass

v = volume

d = 6 g/ 12 mL

d = 0.5 g/mL

Thus, the density of copper is 0.5 g/mL

Why is it important to use scientific notation when talking about our solar system<br> and galaxies?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The main purpose for converting numbers into scientific notation is to make calculations with surpisingly large or small numbers less complicated. Since zeros are not used to place the decimal point, all of the digits in a number in scientific notation are meaningful and easier to read. Hope this helps!
