y half the speed. B. Two balls collide, stick to each other, and move together after the collision. C. Two balls collide and move at a right angle to each other after the collision at a reduced speed. D. Two balls collide head on, each reversing its direction and traveling at half the speed. E. A ball with velocity v collides with a ball at rest; after the collision the first ball is at rest and the second ball has velocity v. I will mark brainliest​

Answer:

Answer E.

For a collision to be completely elastic, there must be NO LOSS in kinetic energy.

We can go through each answer choice:

A. Since the ball rebounds at half the initial speed, there is a loss in kinetic energy. This is NOT an elastic collision.

B. A collision involving sticking is an example of a perfectly INELASTIC collision. This is NOT an elastic collision.

C. A reduced speed indicates that there is a loss of kinetic energy. This is NOT elastic.

D. The balls traveling at half the speed after the collision indicates a loss of kinetic energy, making this collision NOT elastic.

E. This collision indicates an exchange of velocities, characteristic of an elastic collision. We can prove this:

Let:

m = mass of each ball

v = velocity

We have the initial kinetic energy as:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + 0 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2KE=21mv2+0=21mv2

And the final as:

KE = 0 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2KE=0+21mv2=21mv2

500.0 mL of a gas is collected at 745.0 mm Hg. what what will the volume be at standard pressure
Irina-Kira [14]
This is an application of Boyle's law:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂. we don't have to convert volume and pressure to standard forms. we can even use the pressure with mmHg
1 atm = 760 mmHg 
V₂ = P₁V₁ / P₂ = 745 x 500 / 760 = 490 ml
Note that here we assume constant temperature

Given the following balanced equation, determine the rate of reaction with respect to [SO2].
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Rate = -1/2 Δ[SO<sub>2</sub>]/Δt

so its gonna be (in more simple terms) rate= -1/2Δ(SO2)/Δt
