HELP!! Two cars equal mass (1,000 kg each) involved in a rear wnd accident at a stop sign. Here is what you know.

. Car 1 approached intersection from the top at 25 meter hill.

. Car 2 was on a flat stretch of road directly in front of Car 1

. At the bottom of the hill, Car 1 was going 20 m/s, Car 2 at 30 m/s before it stopped at the stop sign.

. There was no skid marks left by Car 2. The collision occurred at the stop sign, where car 2 had stopped.

. After the collision, both cars were moving together in the same direction at 10 m/s before slowly rolling to a stop.

. You must now push Car 2, using 800N of force, 10 meters off to the side of the road so no one gets hurt.

1) what was the potential energy of car 1 on top of the hill?

2) What was the kenetic energy of each car before braking?

3) A. How much energy did Car 1 lose from the top to the bottom of the hill?

B. Where do you suppose the energy went?

While studying chemical reactions and conservation of matter, sarah's class conducted a variety of experiments. sarah and her lab partner found the mass of a wax candle and placed the candle in a flask. the students lit the candle and let it burn to completion. all that was left was wax and charred candle wick. per their teacher's instructions, the students found the mass of the products. their data can be seen in the data table. formulate a hypothesis the students could test to explain why the experiment did not support the law of conservation of matter. a) the students could repeat the experiment using different candles; there might have been a flaw in the candle. b) the experiment should be repeatable. the students should run several trials and then take an average of the after mass in each trial. c) the students should have someone in the class check their measurement skills as they repeat the experiment. they may have made an error using the balance. d) the students should burn the candle in a container that has some type of lid so that any gas that is a product of the reaction can be contained and massed. submit

Air is contained in a variable-load piston-cylinder device equipped with a paddle wheel. initially, air is at 400 kpa and 17°c. the paddle wheel is now turned by an external electric motor until 75 kj/kg of work has been transferred to air. during this process, heat is transferred to maintain a constant air temperature while allowing the gas volume to triple. calculate the required amount of heat transfer in kj/kg.
