To work out the kinetic energy of an object, you use the formula:

E = 0.5 x (mass) x (velocity)^2

One important thing, though. The units MUST be consistent. Mass needs to be in kilograms, and velocity in metres per second.

To convert the mass form grams to kilograms, we need to divide it by 1000, getting 0.0103 kg. Since the velocity is already in the units we need, we can just plug the numbers into the equation to get:

E = 0.5 x (0.0103 kg) x (48.0)^2 = 11.8656 J = 11.9 J, to 3 significant figures

Isoelectric point. The isoelectric point (pI) is the pH at which a molecule has no net charge. The amino acid glycine has two io

timama [110]

Answer:

pI = 6.16

Explanation:

The pI is given by the average of the pKas that are involved. In this case,

Pka of carboxylic acid was given as 2.72 and that of the Amino group was given as 9.60. the average would then be ½(2.72+9.60)

= 6.16

How much heat energy is required to raise the temperature of 0.360 kg of copper from 23.0 ∘C to 60.0 ∘C? The specific heat of co

AVprozaik [17]

MThe heat energy required to raise the temperature of 0.36Kg of copper from 22 c to 60 c is calculate using the following formula

MC delta T
m(mass)= 0.360kg in grams = 0.360 x1000 = 360 g
c(specific heat energy) = 0.0920 cal/g.c
delta T = 60- 23 = 37 c

heat energy is therefore= 360g x0.0920 cal/g.c x 37 c= 1225.44 cal

Jamie rolls a 6-sided die 30 times and determines that the experimental probability of rolling a 2 is Start Fraction 1 over 15 E

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Conduct more trials

Explanation:

Theoretical Probability can be defined as what someone is expecting to happen

Experimental Probability on the other hand, is defined as what actually happens.

Probability is usually calculated in the same way for experimental probability and that of theoretical probability. You divide the total number of possible ways in which a particular outcome can happen, by the total number of outcomes itself.

In Experimental probability, the more times a probability is tried, it gets closer and even more closer to theoretical probability.

So, for the question, Jamie should improve the number of tries more, so as to get his experimental probability results to be closer to the theoretical probability result.
