Mechanical Energy

Mechanism energy is the energy associated with the position and motion of an object. Therefore it is also the summation of the kinetic and potential energies of the object.

Explanation:

Mechanism energy is the energy associated with the position and motion of an object. Therefore it is also the summation of the kinetic and potential energies of the object.

In the muscles, to have movement, the chemical bonds in ATP is broken to enable the sliding action of the myosin and actin fibres of a sarcomere (the basic unit of muscle). This sliding action is responsible for contraction of muscle. The coordinated contractions and relaxations of sarcomeres on muscles result in movement which translates to mechanical energy.

This process is never 100% efficient with some energy lost as heat energy.

Imagine the reaction A + B ⇌ C + D is at equilibrium, where the forward and reverse reactions are at equal rates. What would hap

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Rate of forward reaction will increase.

Explanation:

Effect of change in reaction condition on equilibrium is explained by Le Chatelier's principle. According to this principle,

If an equilibrium condition of a dynamic reversible reaction is disturbed by changing concentration, temperature, pressure, volume, etc, then reaction will move will in a direction which counteract the change.

In the given reaction,

A + B ⇌ C + D

If concentration of A is increase, then reaction will move in a direction which decreases the concentration of A to reestablish the equilibrium.

As concentration A decreases in forward direction, therefore, rate of forward reaction will increase.

Which half-reaction correctly shows the oxidation of iron

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

What is the oxidation half reaction for iron?

The two elements involved, iron and chlorine, each change oxidation state; iron from +2 to +3, chlorine from 0 to -1. There are then effectively two half-reactions occurring. These changes can be represented in formulas by inserting appropriate electrons into each half-reaction: Fe2+ → Fe3+ + e.

Hope this helps..
