Answer:
The difference between a physical reaction and a chemical reaction is composition. In a chemical reaction, there is a change in the composition of the substances in question; in a physical change there is a difference in the appearance, smell, or simple display of a sample of matter without a change in composition. Although we call them physical "reactions," no reaction is actually occurring. In order for a reaction to take place, there must be a change in the elemental composition of the substance in question. Thus, we shall simply refer to physical "reactions" as physical changes from now on.
Explanation:
Physical changes are limited to changes that result in a difference in display without changing the composition. Some common changes (but not limited to) are:
Texture
Color
Temperature
Shape
Change of State (Boiling Point and Melting Point are significant factors in determining this change.)
Physical properties include many other aspects of a substance. The following are (but not limited to) physical properties.
Luster
Malleability
Ability to be drawn into a thin wire
Density
Viscosity
Solubility
Mass
Volume
Answer:
5.959 m/s
Explanation:
m = Mass of gymnast
u = Initial velocity
v = Final velocity
= Initial height
= Final height
From conservation of Energy



Velocity of gymnast at bottom of swing is 5.959 m/s
Answer:
Explanation:
These Hooke's Law problems are tricky. Here's what we need to know that clears up the problem entirely. The final and also the max speed of the block will be reached at the point where the potential energy of the system is 0. So the equation we need, namely,
can be simplified down to
and we solve this first for KE:
and, paying NO attention whatsoever to significant digits here (because if you did the answer you get is not one of the choices)
KE = 3.825 J. Now we can use that value of kinetic energy and solve for the speed we need:
so
so
so
v = 3.91 m/s
