Maria and miquel were enjoying the fireworks when they got into a chemistry argument. maria insisted that the fireworks were the result of a chemical reaction. miguel disagreed. what would you tell them to solve this argument? a) it is a change of state, solid to gas, due to the addition of energy. b) it was a physical reaction since the fuse was lit and heat was produced. c) the color changes and the release of energy indicate a chemical reaction. d) it is an endothermic reaction because energy was added; therefore it is a chemical reaction, eliminate

Jasmine is diving off a 3-meter springboard. her height in meters above the water when she is x meters horizontally from the end of the board is approximated by the equation h=-x^2+3x+3. what is the maximum height jasmine will reach on her dive?

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 740 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of theta= 26 with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is uk = 0.17. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. the block's initial mechanical energy is 9.472 j.b. if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance l in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.
