Answer: A.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is due to the position of an object above Earth's surface. The object has the potential to fall due to gravity. Gravitational potential energy depends on an object's weight and its height above the ground (GPE = weight x height).

Weight= Mass

Height= Height

What is the effect of adding heat to a gas at constant pressure?

Dmitrij [34]

The gas particles will move faster since adding heat will make particles faster. If the gas particles is in a container the container will explode because it can't handle it.

What happens when the kinetic energy of molecules increases so much that electrons are released by the atoms,

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Matter changes to a plasma state

Explanation:

Plasma is superheated matter, so when matter is heated to the point that electrons are stripped off of atoms forming ionized gas. Palsma comprises over 99% of the observable universe. Plasma is visible in the form of stars, nebulas, and sometimes even auroras.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

k = 23045 N/m

Explanation:

To find the spring constant, you take into account the maximum elastic potential energy that the spring can support. The kinetic energy of the car must be, at least, equal to elastic potential energy of the spring when it is compressed to its limit. Then, you have:

$K=U\\\\\frac{1}{2}Mv^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$ (1)

M: mass of the car = 1050 kg

k: spring constant = ?

v: velocity of the car = 8 km/h

x: maximum compression of the spring = 1.5 cm = 0.015m

You solve the equation (1) for k. But first you convert the velocity v to m/s:

$v=8\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=2.222\frac{m}{s}$

$k=\frac{Mv^2}{x^2}=\frac{(1050kg)(2.222m/s)^2}{(0.015m)^2}=23045\frac{N}{m}$

The spring constant is 23045 N/m
