Lucia is playing with magnetic toy vehicles. She has two identical toy vehicles (purple and pink) that start on opposite sides o

f a center magnet that cannot move. She moves both vehicles one space closer to the center magnet.
How did the potential energy of the two vehicles change? Did the potential energy of one vehicle change more than the other? Why do you think so?

Answer:

The potential energy of the two vehicles increased because they were moved against the magnatic forces. The potential energy of the pink car increased more then the potential energy of the purple car because the pink car was closer to the center magnet.

Explanation: I had this same exact question on a quiz and this was my response and I got a 100%

Answer:

The potential energy of both toy vehicles (purple and pink) decreased. Since the pink toy was moved closer to the magnet, it will have less potential energy because of the short distance it will take to travel to the magnet. Although the purple toy is now closer to the magnet, it is still pretty far and will have a somewhat big potential energy when traveling to the magnet.

Explanation:

Hey, I'm in middle school and I had the same question for a science test, I'm not sure if I am correct but this is what I have.

kompoz [17]

Answer:

            Most organic compounds contain carbon and <u>hydrogen</u>.

Explanation:

                   Organic compounds are class of compounds which mainly constitute carbon and other elements like hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur etc.

                   In these compounds hydrogen is essentially present along with carbon as both make the basic organic class of compounds namely, Alkanes (saturated hydrocarbons), Alkenes and Alkynes (unsaturated hydrocarbons).

                   While remaining classes of organic compounds are derived from these three classes of hydrocarbons. Therefore, we can conclude that organic compounds are basically made up of carbon and hydrogen.

A certain gas is present in a 10.0 LL cylinder at 4.0 atmatm pressure. If the pressure is increased to 8.0 atmatm the volume of
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The gas obeys Boyle’s law and the value of k_i\&k_f both are equal to 40.0 atm L.

Explanation:

Initial volume of the gas = V_1=10.0 L

Initial pressure of the gas = P_1=4.0 atm

Final volume of the gas = V_2=5.0 L

Final pressure of the gas = P_2=8.0 atm

This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.  

PV=k

The equation given by this law is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

P_1\propto \frac{1}{V_1}

P_1V_1=k_i

k_i=4.0 atm\times 10.0 L = 40.0 atm L

P_2\propto \frac{1}{V_2}

P_V_2=k_f

k_f=8.0 atm\times 5.0 L = 40.0 atm L

k_i=k_f=40.0 atm L

The gas in the cylinder is obeying Boyle's law.

The gas obeys Boyle’s law and the value of k_i\&k_f both are equal to 40.0 atm L.

Which pair of elements have the same valence electronic configuration of np³?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

(c) P and Sb

Explanation:

We can determine the number of valence electrons of an element:

  • If it belongs to Groups 1 and 2, the number of valence electrons is equal to the number of group and the differential electron occupies the s subshell.
  • If it belongs to the groups 13-18, the number of valence electrons is equal to: "Number of group - 10" and the differential electron occupies the p subshell.

Which pair of elements have the same valence electronic configuration of np³?

(a) O and Se. NO. They belong to the group 16 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np⁴.

(b) Ge and Pb. NO. They belong to the group 14 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np².

(c) P and Sb. YES. They belong to the group 15 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np³.

(d) K and Mg. NO. They belong to the groups 1 and 2 and the valence electron configuration is ns¹ and ns².

(e) Al and Ga. NO. They belong to the group 13 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np¹.
