A radioactive particle weighing 7.20 x 10³ ng is found 110 m above the earth's surface. What is its potential energy?

What must be added to water in order to change state from liquid to a gas?

What happens to the molecules that make up a chocolate chip as it is heated in the oven?

The energy stored in the chemical bonds of fossil fuels is a form of __________ energy.

Which would most likely cause an increase in the energy of water molecules in liquid water?

The mass of a helium atom is roughly four times that of a hydrogen atom. The mass of an oxygen atom is roughly 16 times that of a hydrogen atom.

a. For each of the following pairs, choose the one that has the greater kinetic energy: (i) a H atom moving at 1000 m/s or a He atom moving at 400 m/s, (ii) a H atom moving at 1000 m/s or an O atom moving at 400 m/s, (iii) a He atom moving at 1000 m/s or an O atom moving at 400 m/s.

b. A He atom is moving at 800 m/s. What is the speed of an O atom that has the same kinetic energy as the He atom?
