Answer:

mechanical energy

Explanation:

In science, matter can be defined as anything that has mass and occupies space. Any physical object that is found on earth is typically composed of matter. Matter are known to be made up of atoms and as a result has the property of existing in states.

Generally, matter exists in three (3) distinct or classical phases and these are;

1. Solid: it is the state of matter in which the physical substance has a definite shape and fixed volume but not compressible. Examples of solids are pen, screwdriver, television, car etc.

2. Liquid: it is the state of matter in which the physical substance can be poured and it takes the shape of its container. Also, liquids generally have a definite volume. Examples of liquids are urine, water, milk, blood etc.

3. Gas: it is the state of matter in which the physical substance has no definite shape or volume and as a result fills all available space. Also, gases are easily compressible and can flow. Examples of gases are hydrogen, oxygen, argon, nitrogen etc.

Generally, the form of energy associated with the particles of objects include thermal energy, nuclear energy and chemical energy.

However, a form of energy not associated with the particles of objects such as an atom is mechanical energy.

As the temperature increases the number of effective collisions between reacting particles in a chemical reaction

Reil [10]

Answer: option A) initially increases, then decreases.

Justification:

The increase of the rate of effective collisions among particles as the temperature increases is explained by the collision theory in virtue of the increase of the kinetic energy.

This is, as the temperature increase so the kinetic energy increase and the higher the kinetic energy the greater the number of collisions and the greater the chances that this energy overcome the activation energy (the energy needed to start the reaction).

Now, as the reaction progress the number of reactants particles naturally decrease (some of them have been converted into product) so this lower number of particles means lower concentration which means lower collisions and, thereafter, a decrease in the reaction rate.

A satellite with mass 6000 kg is orbiting the planet at 2500 km above the planet's

9966 [12]

By the law of universal gravitation, the gravitational force F between the satellite (mass m) and planet (mass M) is

F = G M m / R ²

where

• G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg•s²) is the universal gravitation constant

• R = 2500 km + 5000 km = 7500 km is the distance between the satellite and the center of the planet

Solve for M :

M = F R ² / (G m)

M = ((3 × 10⁴ N) (75 × 10⁵ m)²) / (G (6 × 10³ kg))

M ≈ 2.8 × 10¹⁴ kg

Both speed and velocity measure how fast something is moving. However, since speed is not a _______ it does not require a(n )___

Arturiano [62]

Speed is different from velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity and has a direction. Speed is a scalar quantity and does not require a direction. The answer must be D).

A ball is dropped from a tower that is 206 m high, How long does it take to reach the ground?

Slav-nsk [51]

It will take 6.42 s for the ball that is dropped from a height of 206 m to reach the ground.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (H) = 206 m

NOTE: Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

The time taken for the ball to get to the ground can be obtained as follow:

H = ½gt²

206 = ½ × 10 × t²
