<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Kinetic energy

A car engine changes chemical potential energy into the <u>kinetic energy</u> of the moving car​.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • A car engine converts potential chemical energy stored in gasoline into thermal energy and then into kinetic mechanical energy.
  • When gasoline undergoes combustion it reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor.Gasoline is a mixture of octane and similar hydrocarbons and contains potential chemical energy.
  • The hot exhaust gases from the combustion of gasoline that are produced within the cylinder expand and exert pressure, moving the piston in the cylinder outward then inward as the gas is exhausted. Kinetic mechanical energy of the moving pistons is transferred to the drive shaft and eventually to the wheels, giving the car kinetic mechanical energy.

You are walking from your math class to your science class. You are carrying books
kolezko [41]

Answer:

1800J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of the book  = 20N

Total distance covered  = 45m + 15m + 30m  = 90m

Unknown:

Total work performed on the books  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we must understand that work done is the force applied to move a body through a certain distance.

So;

    Work done  = Force x distance

  Work done  = 20 x 90  = 1800J

What is the acceleration of a 0.90g drop of blood in the fingertips at the bottom of the swing?
Scilla [17]
The acceleration of a 0.90 g drop of blood in the fingertips at the bottom of the swing is the sum of the acceleration of the movement of the finger and the acceleration of gravity. In this case, this is different when the finger goes down, since the acceleration now becomes the difference between the two.
