A meteor falls toward Earth's surface. Given that the acceleration due to

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

E = 147000 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of meteor, m = 50 kg

The altitude of the meteor, h = 300 m

We need to find the potential energy of the meteor. The formula for the potential energy is given by :

$E=mgh$

Put all the values,

$E=50\times 9.8\times 300\\\\E=147000\ J$

So, the required potential energy is equal to 147000 J.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!<br> Calculate the bond for CO2

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Bonding Order = number of bonding electrons – number of antibonding electrons/2.

So for CO2, there is a total of 16 electrons, 8 of which are antibonding electrons.

So 16 – 8 = 8; divided by 2 = 4. So, 4 is the bonding order of CO2. The molecular structure of CO2 looks like this:
