You throw a rock upwards; it rises and then falls back down. We know that the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/sec2 near the

surface of earth. What is the rock’s acceleration at the very top of its trajectory (where its velocity is zero for an instant)? Ignore air resistance.

Answer:

Acceleration = 9.8 m/sec2

Explanation:

We know that the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/sec2 near the surface of earth.

Remember  that the gravity is always affecting everything on earth at every instant, even the rock at the very top of it's trajectory. It doesn't mind if the velocity is zero for an instant or if there's air resistance, the gravity force is there, and always aims towards the center of the earth.

So for all the trajectory of the rock, gravity is 9.8 m/sec2

Which value is defined as the difference between the potential energy of the products and the potential energy of the reactants
Brut [27]

Answer:

Heat of reaction or enthalpy of reaction (ΔH)

Explanation:

The heat of reaction or enthalpy of reaction (ΔH) is the amount of heat energy that the system must release or absorb so that the temperature remains constant throughout the chemical reaction process. In other words, the heat of reaction or enthalpy of reaction (ΔH) is the change in the enthalpy of a chemical reaction (the energy  absorbed or released into it) that occurs at a constant pressure.

Then, this energy can be observed in the following way:

Every substance has a quantity of energy stored in its links. When the energy contained in the reagents is greater than that contained in the products, the reaction is exothermic because energy release occurs. When the energy contained in the reagents is less than that contained in the products, an endothermic reaction occurs because energy absorption occurs.

That energy contained in the substances is called enthalpy (H).  

Then the enthalpy can be defined as the difference between the sum of the enthalpies of the products and the sum of the enthalpies of the reactants.

Let A^=6i^+4j^_2k^ and B= 2i^_2j^+3k^. find the sum and difference of A and B​
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Explanation:

Let \textbf{A} = 6\hat{\textbf{i}} + 4\hat{\textbf{j}} - 2\hat{\textbf{k}} and \textbf{B} = 2\hat{\textbf{i}} - 2\hat{\textbf{j}} + 3\hat{\textbf{k}}

The sum of the two vectors is

\textbf{A + B} = (6 + 2)\hat{\textbf{i}} + (4 - 2)\hat{\textbf{j}} + (-2 + 3)\hat{\textbf{k}}

= 8\hat{\textbf{i}} + 2\hat{\textbf{j}} + \hat{\textbf{k}}

The difference between the two vectors can be written as

\textbf{A - B} = (6 - 2)\hat{\textbf{i}} + (4 - (-2))\hat{\textbf{j}} + (-2 - 3)\hat{\textbf{k}}

= 4\hat{\textbf{i}} + 6\hat{\textbf{j}} - 5\hat{\textbf{k}}
