A gallon of gasoline contains chemical energy. If you pour a gallon of gasoline into your car, you could drive for about 20 miles on the highway (about 20 minutes). You could choose instead to run a lawn mower for an hour with one gallon of gasoline. If the gasoline were to come in contact with a fire, the entire gallon would burn in less than a minute. Which reaction has the most power? A. Burning the gasoline in the car
B. Burning the gasoline in a fire
C. Burning the gasoline in the lawn mower
D. They are equal because the gasoline has the same chemical potential energy in each case

An astronaut in space cannot use a scale or balance to weigh objects because there is no gravity. but she does have devices to measure distance and time accurately. she knows her own mass is 77.4 kg , but she is unsure of the mass of a large gas canister in the airless rocket. when this canister is approaching her at 3.50 m/s , she pushes against it, which slows it down to 1.30 m/s (but does not reverse it) and gives her a speed of 2.60 m/s . what is the mass of the canister?
