Answer:

I got a 100 with this, sorry if this is not what you want just trying to help

Explanation:

1. This experiment was to find how mass and speed effect KE. This is important because if you were in a situation where you needed something to go higher, you would know to add more or less of mass/speed.  

To test mass, we filled the bean bag with a certain amount of water, then dropped it. After, you recorded how high it made the bean bag go. The same with speed, but same amount in the bottle, just dropped from different heights.  

My hypothesis is when you have more mass, the KE will be greater. This is also the same with speed, if it is dropped from a higher place, the bean bag will launch farther than the last time.  

2. Data I collected from the lab was like my hypothesis explained. When the height of the bottle increased, it made the bean bag go higher than the last. And I tested 4 different masses, 0.125 kg, 0.250kg, 0.375kg and 0.500kg. Each time the bean bag went higher on a larger mass.  

A lot of times on the speed test, the bean bag would go higher than the bottle drop point, but not every time. Also, when it was dropped from the same height each time, some results varied quite a bit, like when it was dropped from 1.28 the results were 1.14 then 1.30 1.30. Mass on the other hand was all in the same number range, only once the numbers were a bit off from each other.  

3.  Some formulas I used were KE= ½ mv^2 and Ht v^2/2g. The first was to calculate the kinetic energy of an object, m=mass v=speed. Second was for finding out what height I needed to drop something to reach a certain speed, Ht=Height and g= Gravitational Acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2.  

I used these to figure out tables that showed relationships between different things like mass and KE or speed and height. The whole time I was doing the lab, my data was going up, when there was more mass/speed there were higher values in the table.  

This means that my hypothesis at the beginning was correct, more of m/s means KE will increase proportionally because they are all linear. I found it surprising when the bean bag height went over the water bottle drop mark.  

4.     To conclude, my hypothesis matched my data. The data values went up when more mass or speed was added. This means if I were in a situation where I needed more kinetic energy for something, I would know to increase mass or the speed of the object giving it energy.  

The reason that this hypothesis is correct is when you have more mass, you have more energy. So, when you drop let's say a baseball, it isn’t that heavy so it would only launch the bean bag so far. But a bowling ball is very heavy and has lots of energy when falling because of that, it would make the bean bag go very high.  

To make this experiment better, I would use a smoother material for the lever so energy wouldn’t be lost by friction from wood rubbing together. Also, maybe a scanner or video camera to more accurately record how far the bean bag went. All of these would help the lab get more precise results, maybe they could be used in a future lab.

Which set of changes does not involve breaking or forming chemilcal bonds
sineoko [7]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

It wasn't an adjustment in the condition of issue on the grounds that the vitality in the can did not change. Additionally, since this was a physical change, the atoms in the can are as yet similar particles. No synthetic bonds were made or broken.  You added enough vitality to make a stage change from strong to fluid.  

The main changes recorded which don't include framing or breaking substance bonds would bubble and liquefying. Bubbling and liquefying are physical changes as opposed to synthetic changes, so no new items are shaped.

Answer A B C and D please for my chemistry hw
r-ruslan [8.4K]

<u>Answer:</u> The equations are provided below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Skeleton equations are defined as the equations which simply indicate the molecules that are involved in a chemical reaction. These equations are unbalanced equations.

Balanced equations are defined as the chemical equation in which number of individual atoms on the reactant side must be equal to the number of individual atoms on the product side.

  • For A:

Water decomposes in the direct current to form hydrogen and oxygen.

Skeleton Equation: H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_2(g)+O_2(g)

Balanced Equation: 2H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2H_2(g)+O_2(g)

  • For B:

Mercury (II) oxide decomposes in heat to form mercury, oxygen.

Skeleton Equation: HgO(s)\rightarrow Hg+O_2

Balanced Equation: 2HgO(s)\rightarrow 2Hg+O_2

  • For C:

Calcium carbonate when heated forms calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.

Skeleton Equation: CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

Balanced Equation: CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

  • For D:

Group 2 hydroxides, when heated forms oxide and water vapor.

Skeleton Equation: Ca(OH)_2\rightarrow CaO+H_2O

Balanced Equation: Ca(OH)_2\rightarrow CaO+H_2O
