A small 18 kilogram canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 1 m/s. What is the canoe's kinetic energy?

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²).

A Physicist in the canoe, or on a raft floating downriver next to the canoe, will say that the canoe's kinetic energy is zero.

A Physicist on the riverbank, watching the canoe drift by at 1 m/s, will say that its kinetic energy is 9 Joules.

They're both correct.

A 1,200 kg car rolls down a hill with its brakes off and transmission in neutral. At one moment it is moving 5.0 m/s. A little l
Y_Kistochka [10]
The change in kinetic energy of the car is equivalent to the change in its potential energy. Thus:
K.E  = P.E
1/2 x mΔv² = mgΔh
h = (8.2² - 5²) / 2(9.81)
h = 2.15 meters

At 900.0 K, the equilibrium constant (Kp) for the following reaction is 0.345. 2SO2(g)+O2(g)→2SO3(g) At equilibrium, the partial
elena55 [62]

Answer : The partial pressure of SO_3 is, 67.009 atm

Solution :  Given,

Partial pressure of SO_2 at equilibrium = 30.6 atm

Partial pressure of O_2 at equilibrium = 13.9 atm

Equilibrium constant = K_p=0.345

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2SO_3(g)

The expression of K_p will be,

K_p=\frac{(p_{SO_3})^2}{(p_{SO_2})^2\times (p_{O_2})}

Now put all the values of partial pressure, we get

0.345=\frac{(p_{SO_3})^2}{(30.6)^2\times (13.9)}

p_{SO_3}=67.009atm

Therefore, the partial pressure of SO_3 is, 67.009 atm

Stop to Think 7.1 Which one is greater- the attraction of the Earth on 1 kg lead or the attraction of 1 kg of led
Daniel [21]

Answer:

1 kg lead to earth is greater attraction as mass of earth is much more than 1kg lead.

Explanation:

Objects with more mass have more gravity. Gravity also gets weaker with distance. So, the closer objects are to each other, the stronger their gravitational pull is. Earth's gravity comes from all its mass
