consider a 2-kg bowling ball sits on top of a building that is 40 meters tall. it falls to the ground. think about the amounts of potential and kinetic energy the bowling ball has:
• as sits on top of a building that is 40 meters tall.
• as it is half way through a fall off a building that is 40 meters tall and travelling 19.8 meters per second.
• as it is just about to hit the ground from a fall off a building that is 40 meters tall and traveling 28 meters per second.

1. does the bowling ball have more potential energy or kinetic energy as it sit on top of the building? why?
2. does the bowling ball have more potential energy or kinetic energy as it is half way through its fall? why?
3. does the bowling ball have more potential energy or kinetic energy just before it hits the ground? why?
4. what is the potential energy of the bowling ball as it sits on top of the building?
5. what is the potential energy of the ball as it is half way through the fall, 20 meters high?
6. what is the kinetic energy of the ball as it is half way through the fall?
7. what is the kinetic energy of the ball just before it hits the ground?

Steam reforming of methane ( ch4) produces "synthesis gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas, which is the starting point for many important industrial chemical syntheses. an industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a 1.5 l flask with 3.5 atm of methane gas and 1.3 atm of water vapor at 43.0°c. he then raises the temperature, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium measures the partial pressure of carbon monoxide gas to be 1 .0 atm. calculate the pressure equilibrium constant for the steam reforming of methane at the final temperature of the mixture. round your answer to 2 significant digits.
