As the pendulum moves from point 2 to point 3, what happens to its mechanical energy?potential energy is converted to kinetic en

ahrayia [7]

Answer: Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy and back again.

Explanation:At points 1 and 3, the pendulum stops moving, and its mechanical energy is purely potential. At point 2, the pendulum is moving the fastest, and its mechanical energy is purely kinetic. Therefore, as the pendulum moves from point 1 to point 3, its potential energy is first converted to kinetic energy, then back to potential.

Arterial blood contains about 0.25 g of oxygen per liter at 37°C and standard atmospheric pressure. Under these conditions, the

Olin [163]

Firstly we need to determine the partial pressure of O2:

$\begin{gathered} P_{O_2}=X\times P_T \\ P_{O_2}:partial\text{ }pressure \\ X:mole\text{ }fraction \\ P_T:total\text{ }pressure \\ \\ P_{O_2}=0.209\times0.35\text{ }atm \\ P_{O_2}=0.073\text{ }atm \end{gathered}$

We will now use the Henry's Law equation to determine the solubility of the gas:

$\begin{gathered} c=K_H\times P_{O_2} \\ c:solubility\text{ }or\text{ }concentration\text{ }of\text{ }the\text{ }gas(M) \\ K_H:Henry^{\prime}sLawconstant=3.7\times10^{-2}M\text{ }atm^{-1} \\ P_{O_2}:partial\text{ }pressure\text{ }of\text{ }the\text{ }gas=0.073atm \\ \\ c=3.7\times10^{-2}M\text{ }atm^{-1}\times0.073 \\ c=2.7\times10^{-3}M \end{gathered}$

Answer: Solubility is 2.7x10^-3 M

EXPERIMENT 4 : TYPES OF PLATE BOUNDARY

zalisa [80]

Answer:

Movement in narrow zones along plate boundaries causes most earthquakes. Most seismic activity occurs at three types of plate boundaries—divergent, convergent, and transform. As the plates move past each other, they sometimes get caught and pressure builds up.
