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.
Answer:
For an object to move, there must be a force. A force is a push or pull that causes an object to move, change direction, change speed, or stop. Without a force, an object that is moving will continue to move and an object at rest will remain at rest.
Explanation:
Answer: (3) The difference in electronegativity between carbon and oxygen is greater than that between fluorine and oxygen.
Explanation: Polarity of a molecule is due to the difference in electronegativity of the atoms. More is the electronegativity difference, more is the polarity.
Electronegativity of carbon = 2.5
Electronegativity of oxygen = 3.5
Electronegativity of fluorine = 4.0
Thus the difference in electronegativity of carbon and oxygen is=(3.5-2.5)= 1.0
Thus the difference in electronegativity of fluorine and oxygen is=(4.0-3.5)= 0.5.
Thus C-O bond is more polar than F-O bond.
