Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy obtained by a substance due to their position.

Mathematically,      P.E = mgh

where     m = mass

               g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s

               h = height

Since it is given that mass is 25 kg and height is 3 m. Hence, calculate the potential energy as follows.

                               P.E = mgh

                                      = 25 kg \times 9.8 m/s \times 3 m

                                      = 735 kg/s

Thus, we can conclude that potential energy for the given case is 735 kg/s.

Potential energy<span> is the </span>energy<span> that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position.  It is calculated by the expression as follows:

PE = mgh
PE = 25 (9.8) (3)
PE = 735 J

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

How many gallons of gasoline that is 5% ethanol must be added to 2,000 gallons of gasoline with no ethanol to get a mixture that
Amanda [17]

Answer:

V_1= 3000 gal

Explanation:

We have 3 solutions:

  • Solution 1 (with ethanol)
  • Solution 2 (no ethanol)
  • Final solution

V_f=V_1 + V_2

and for the ethanol:

V_f*0.03=V_1*0.05 + V_2*0

V_f=V_1 \frac{5}{3}

Combining:

V_1 \frac{5}{3}=V_1 + V_2

V_1 \frac{2}{3}= V_2

V_1= \frac{3}{2} V_2

If V2=2000 gal:

V_1= \frac{3}{2} 2000 gal

V_1= 3000 gal

Molecule contains carbon, hydrogen and sulfur atoms. When a sample of 0.535g of this compound is burnt in oxygen, 1.119 g of CO2
OLga [1]

Answer:

The empirical formula is, C4H4S

Explanation:

Number of moles of carbon = 1.119 g/ 44g/mol = 0.025 moles

Mass of Carbon= 0.025 moles × 12 g/ mole = 0.3 g

Number of moles of hydrogen = 0.229/18g/mol × 2 = 0.025 moles

Mass of hydrogen = 0.025 moles × 1 = 0.025 g

Number of moles of sulphur = 0.407g/ 64 g/mol = 0.0064 moles

Mass of sulphur= 0.0064 moles ×32 = 0.2 g

Now we obtain the mole ratios by dividing through by the lowest ratio.

C- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, H- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, S- 0.0064 moles/0.0064 moles

C4H4S

Write an equation that expresses the law of thermodynamics in terms of heat and work
Anettt [7]

We write DE = q+w, where DE is the internal energy change and q and w are heat and work, respectively.

(b)Under what conditions will the quantities q and w be negative numbers?

q is negative when heat flows from the system to the surroundings, and w is negative when the system does work on the surroundings.

As an aside: In applying the first law, do we need to measure the internal energy of a system? Explain.

The absolute internal energy of a system cannot be measured, at least in any practical sense. The internal energy encompasses the kinetic energy of all moving particles in the system, including subatomic particles, as well as the electrostatic potential energies between all these particles. We can measure the change in internal energy (DE) as the result of a chemical or physical change, but we cannot determine the absolute internal energy of either the initial or the final state. The first law allows us to calculate the change in internal energy during a transformation by calculating the heat and work exchanged between the system and its surroundings.
