What energy is often called the "graveyard of kinetic energy" and why?

Heat is often called the "graveyard of kinetic energy". Heat due to friction. Due to friction, kinetic energy is converted to heat and not potential energy; thus, the kinetic energy is "lost" since heat cannot easily be converted back into kinetic energy.

A 3.00 L flexible container holds a sample of hydrogen gas at 153 kPa. If the pressure increases to 203 kPa and the temperature
dybincka [34]

To solve this we assume that the gas is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant temperature and number of moles of the gas the product of PV is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

 

P1V1 =P2V2

V2 = P1 V1 / P2

V2 = 153 x 3.00 / 203

<span>V2 = 2.26 L</span>

Two electrons are found in the same atom. One has the quantum number set (2, 1, -1, +½), and the other has the quantum number se
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer is: same orbital, but have different spin directions.

The principal quantum number (n) is one of four quantum numbers which are assigned to each electron in an atom to describe that electron's state.  

For principal quantum number n=2:  

1) azimuthal quantum number (l) can be l = 0...n-1:  

l = 0, 1.  

The azimuthal quantum number determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital.  

2) magnetic quantum number (ml) can be ml = -l...+l.  

ml = -1, 0,+1.  

Magnetic quantum number specify orientation of electrons in magnetic field and number of electron states (orbitals) in subshells.  

3) the spin quantum number (ms), is the spin of the electron.  

ms = +1/2, -1/2.

How many atoms are in 123 g of calcium
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Molar mass of Ca = 40 g / mol , given 123 g Ca is 123/40= 3.075 moles,

1 mole = 6.022 * 10^23 atoms, so 3.075 moles Ca= 18.51*10^23 atoms

Zoe is frying eggs in a pan. The eggs cook because of _____ of heat. Zoe feels hot as she stands near the stove mostly because o
erica [24]

Answer:

1) conduction

2) Radiation

Explanation:

Conduction is a mode of heat transfer by which heat energy is transferred through a material, the average position of the particles of the material remaining the same.

Radiation is a process of heat transfer by which heat is transferred from a hotter to a cooler point without any intervening medium.

The pan used to fry the egg is a conductor of heat hence heat can pass through it by conduction thereby enabling the eggs to cook.

Heat can travel without an intervening medium hence Zoe feels hot near the stove. This ability of the heat to travel without an intervening medium is called radiation.
