The potential energy of a catapult was completely converted into kinetic energy by releasing a small stone with a mass of 20 gra

ms. The velocity of the stone when it reached the target was 15.0 meters/second. What was the value of the kinetic energy of the stone when it reached the target? A. 2.05 joules B. 2.25 joules C. 3.20 joules D. 4.43 joules

Answer : The correct option is, 2.25 joules.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of the stone = 20 g

Velocity of the stone = 15 m/s

Formula used for kinetic energy is :

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where,

K.E = kinetic energy of the stone

m = mass of the stone

v = velocity of the stone

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the kinetic energy of the stone.

K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times (20g)\times (15m/s)^2

K.E=2250gm^2/s^2=2.25Kgm^2/s^2=2.25J

Therefore, The kinetic energy of the stone is, 2.25 joules.

1,000 grams = 1 kilogram

20 grams = 0.02 kilogram


Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) x (speed)²


                          (1/2) (0.02) x (15)² =


                                (0.01)  x  (225)  =  2.25 joules

Which of the following weak interactions would require the least amount of energy to disrupt? Group of answer choices
SpyIntel [72]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A hydrogen bond is defined as a weak bond that is formed between an electropositive atom (generally hydrogen atom) and an electronegative atom like oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine.

An ionic bond is defined as a bond formed between a metal and a non-metal and in this bond transfer of electron takes place from metal to non-metal. And, due to the presence of opposite charges on the combining atoms there exists a strong force of attraction.

Vander waal forces are defined as the weak electric forces which tend to attract neutral molecules towards each other in gases, liquefied and solidified gases.

Vander waal forces are very weak forces.

Thus, we can conclude that Van der walas interactions are weak interactions would require the least amount of energy to disrupt.

How do the equilibrium concentrations of the reactants compare to the equilibrium concentrations of the product?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: It depends equilibrium constant K

Explanation:   You need to to have reaction formula.

If K >> 1 then concentrations of products are much bigger than

concentrations of reactants. If K < < 1, concentration of products is small.

explain how energy changes from one form to another in a exothermic reaction. in an endothermic reaction.
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Exothermic reaction: In exothermic reaction, energy is transferred to the surroundings, and the surrounding temperature increases, this is known as exothermic reaction. In other words energy exits in exothermic reaction. Some example of exothermic reactions are:

1) Neutralisation reaction.

2) Combustion reaction.

3) Some oxidation reaction.

Endothermic reaction: In endothermic reaction, energy is taken in from the surrounding, and the surrounding temperature decreases, this is known as endothermic reaction. In other words energy enters in endothermic reaction. Some example of exothermic reactions are:

1) Thermal decomposition.

2) Reaction between citric acid and sodium hydrogen carbonate.
