Which statements about braking a car are true? A)The greater the kinetic energy of a car, the longer it takes for the car to sto
2 answers:
Answer:
option c
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is due to the speed of a body.
When speed is doubled, the kinetic energy is quadruple.
From third equation of motion, braking distance is also proportional to square of speed. Thus, when speed is doubled, the braking distance is quadruple.
Thus, option c is correct.

Missing details. Complete text is:"The following reaction has an activation energy of 262 kJ/mol:
C4H8(g) --> 2C2h4(g)
At 600.0 K the rate constant is 6.1× 10–8 s–1. What is the value of the rate constant at 785.0 K?"
To solve the exercise, we can use Arrhenius equation:
where K are the reaction rates, Ea is the activation energy, R=8.314 J/mol*K and T are the temperatures. Using T1=600 K and T2=785 K, and Ea=262 kJ/mol = 262000 J/mol, on the right side of the equation we have
And so
And using
