Answer: The correct answer is option "The mechanical energy is conserved".

Explanation:

Mechanical energy = Kinetic energy + Potential Energy

Mechanical energy of the body is defined a sum of potential energy and kinetic energy possessed by the body in motion. It is the energy associated with position and motion of the body.

The principle of Conservation of Mechanical Energy states that the mechanical energy of the body remains constant as long as the forces acting on the body are conservative forces.

From, this we can say that mechanical energy of the bowling ball with mass of 2 kg falling at speed of 4.4 m/s will remain conserved.

Hence,the correct answer is "The mechanical energy is conserved".

A sample of 8.11 g 8.11 g of solid calcium hydroxide is added to 38.0 mL 38.0 mL of 0.410 M 0.410 M aqueous hydrochloric acid. W
Andrews [41]

Answer:

The balanced chemical equation :

Ca(OH)_2(s)+2HCl(aq)\rightarrow CaCl_2(aq)+2H_2O(l)

Explanation:

When calcium hydroxide reacts with hydrochloric acid it gives calcium chloride and water as a products. The chemical equation is given as:

Ca(OH)_2+2HCl\rightarrow CaCl_2+2H_2O

According to question, solid calcium hydroxde is added to 38.0 mL of 0.410 M of HCl solution, so the chemical equation can be written as:

Ca(OH)_2(s)+2HCl(aq)\rightarrow CaCl_2(aq)+2H_2O(l)

According to stoichiometry, when 1 mole of solid calcium hydroxide reacts with 1 mole of hydrochloric acid to gives 1 mole of aqueous calcium chloride and 1 mole of water.

What kinds of scientific investagations involve making observations
bulgar [2K]

Scientific investigations that involve some kind of testing will make use of observations.  Generally speaking, making observations is the first step of the scientific method.  Based on those observations, a question is asked, and then a hypothesis and prediction will be stated.  A scientist will set up a test, observe the outcome, and collect data on the test.  That will lead the scientist to some kind of conclusion relating to the initial question and hypothesis....
