Answer:
80 km
Explanation:
Since 240 divided by three is 80, the velocity the car is traveling at is 80 kilometers per hour.
This is where we have to admit that gravitational potential energy is
one of those things that depends on the "frame of reference", or
'relative to what?'.
Potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (<em>height</em>).
So you have to specify <em><u>height above what</u></em> .
-- With respect to the ground, the ball has zero potential energy.
(If you let go of it, it will gain zero kinetic energy as it falls to
the ground.)
-- With respect to the floor in your basement, the potential energy is
(3) x (9.8) x (3 meters) = 88.2 joules.
(If you let go of it, it will gain 88.2 joules of kinetic energy as it falls
to the floor of your basement.)
-- With respect to the top of that 10-meter hill over there, the potential
energy is
(3) x (9.8) x (-10) = -294 joules
(Its potential energy is negative. After you let go of it, you have to give it
294 joules of energy that it doesn't have now, in order to lift it to the top of
the hill <em>where it will have zero</em> potential energy.)
Elements are composed of single atoms and compounds are composed of different elements.
<u>Explanation:</u>
A single atom generally forms an element. It is an individual particle or atom present in the periodic table, mostly it refers with symbol. When two or more elements of different types or same types combine together, it is called as compound.
The compounds can be heterogeneous compounds and homogeneous compounds. Depending upon the combination of elements, this classification is done for compounds. The elements can form a compound by ionic, covalent, metallic or hydrogen bonding. The molecules can also be termed as compounds.
