C. A cation as a cation is positively charged and when an atom loses an electron it forms a positive ion.
Answer:
Yes, since the choice of the zero o potential energy is arbitrary.
Explanation:
The kinetic energy is due to the motion of the object. The expression for the kinetic energy is as follows;
Here, m is the mass of the object and v is the velocity of the object.
The kinetic energy can not be negative as the velocity is squared. It can be zero and positive.
Potential energy: It is the energy is due to the position of the object.
The expression for the potential energy is as follows;
PE= mgh
Here, g is the acceleration due to gravity and height.
Height can be taken from the reference point, zero which can be taken below zero and above zero. Zero is taken as origin. Below zero, the height is taken as negative and above zero, the height is taken as positive.
The potential energy can be zero, positive and negative.
The total energy is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy.
E= KE + PE
Here, KE is the kinetic energy and PE is the potential energy.
Therefore, the option (B) is correct.
Answer:
Sound waves travel at 343 m/s through the air and faster through liquids and solids. The waves transfer energy from the source of the sound, e.g. a drum, to its surroundings. Your ear detects sound waves when vibrating air particles cause your ear drum to vibrate. The bigger the vibrations the louder the sound.
Explanation:
The data given in the bar graph is valid because it follows the law of conservation of energy, since the GPE at top of 2nd hill plus KE at top of 2nd hill equals KE at bottom of 1st hill.
<h3>What is law of conservation of energy?</h3>
The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.
Based on the law of conservation of energy, kinetic energy of a roller coaster can be converted into potential energy of the roller coaster and vice versa.
ΔK.E = ΔP.E
where;
- ΔK.E is change in kinetic energy
- ΔP.E is change in potential energy
The kinetic energy of the coaster is greatest at the bottom of the hill, as the coaster moves upward, the kinetic energy decreases and will be converted into potential energy. The potential energy of the coaster increases as the coaster moves up the hill and will become maximum at the highest point of the hill.
From the given data;
GPE at top of 2nd hill + KE at top of 2nd hill = KE at bottom of 1st hill
