The energy posessed by a thrown baseball is an example of what kind of energy?
potential |
|
transitional |
|
gravitational |
|
kinetic |
Kinetic energy is the energy posessed by a moving object. Potential energy is stored energy in a stationary object based on its location, position, shape, or state.

results |
|
side effects |
|
products |
|
reactants |
During a chemical reaction molecules and atoms (reactants) are rearranged into new combinations that result in new kinds of atoms or molecules (products).
Earth's history is divided into time periods, which of these is the longest time period?
era |
|
eon |
|
epoch |
|
age |
The Earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old and its history is divided into time periods based on the events that took place and the forms of life that were dominant during those periods. The largest graduation of time is the eon and each eon is subdivided into eras, eras into periods, periods into epochs, and epochs into ages.
Force is measured in newtons (N) with 1 N being the force required to impart an acceleration of:
1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg/s2 |
|
1 mph to a mass of 1 kg |
|
1 m/s to a mass of 1 kg |
|
1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg |
Weight is a force that describes the attraction of gravity on an object. Force is measured in newtons (N) with 1 N being the force required to impart an acceleration of 1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg.
pH is a scale that measures of how basic or acidic a solution is. A solution with a pH of 9 is:
alkaline |
|
water |
|
acidic |
|
neutral |
An acid is a substance that gives up positively charged hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water. A base (alkaline) gives up negatively charged hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water. pH is a scale that measures of how basic or acidic a solution is. Numbered from 0 to 14, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral, less than 7 are acidic, more than 7 are alkaline.
