A student is investigating the transfer of energy between potential and kinetic. The student observes a roller coaster at four l

ocations on the track and creates a graph based on her observations.
What conclusion can be made based on the graph?
A.Kinetic and potential energy change, but total energy stays the same.
B.Potential energy is increased, but kinetic energy stays the same.
C.Kinetic energy is created during a roller coaster ride.
D.Potential energy is destroyed during a roller coaster ride.

Answer:

A.Kinetic and potential energy change, but total energy stays the same.

Explanation:

According to the Principle of Energy Conservation, the energy is not created nor destroyed, but transformed. Given the absence of non-conservative or external forces, it is conducted that total energy is the sum of potential and kinetic energy, whose proportion changes in the process. Neither potential energy nor kinetic energy are destroyed or created. Therefore, the answer is A.

I am not sure what the graph looks like, so I don’t know which parts of the roller coaster is marked. However, I believe the answer is C: Kinetic energy is created during a roller coaster ride, since a roller coaster typically has a lot of built up potential energy that converts to kinetic energy when the roller falls from a large hill on the tracks.

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

∴ΔH₂ = - 12,258 KJ

Explanation:

Enthalpy:

Enthalpy is a property of a thermodynamic system. Enthalpy of a system is equal to the sum of internal energy of the system and presser times volume of the system.

    The heat absorbes or releases in a closed system is the change of enthalpy of the system.

Given reactions are:

Reaction 1: C₃H₈(g)+5O₂(g)→ 3CO₂(g)+4H₂O,                 ΔH₁= - 2043 KJ

Reaction 2: 6C₃H₈(g)+30 O₂(g)→ 18 CO₂(g)+24 H₂O,     ΔH₂=?

Take a look at reaction 1 and reaction 2, the only difference is that 1 molecule of C₃H₈ is combusted in reaction 1 and 6 molecules of C₃H₈  is  combusted in reaction 2.

We can think the reaction 2 as occurring 6 different container and each containers contains 1 molecule of C₃H₈. The enthalpy is an extensive property. Total enthapy of the 6 containers is = 6×(-2043 KJ)

                                                                            = - 12,258 KJ

∴ΔH₂ = - 12,258 KJ

2. What was the primary reason in the 1850's driving the curiosity of atoms?
nalin [4]

The primary reason that large numbers of people left Ireland in the 1840s and 1850s was MASS STARVATION.

Great Famine or Great Hunger was a period in Ireland where mass starvation, diseases, and emigration occurred between 1845 to 1852.

The Great Famine was caused by Phytophthora infestans, a disease that infests in potatoes. Though the potato infestation spread throughout Europe, it greatly affected Ireland, where 1/3 of its population was dependent on the potato crop as their primary source of food.

The loss of their primary source of food led to mass starvation, sickness, and eventual death. Others opted to leave Ireland and seek shelter and food in other countries to survive.

Molecules can be dissolved? Why?
elixir [45]

Answer:

Dissolving is when the solute breaks up from a larger crystal of molecules into much smaller groups or individual molecules. This break up is caused by coming into contact with the solvent. In the case of salt water, the water molecules break off salt molecules from the larger crystal lattice.
