Course Task As I sat under an Oak tree I recognized some similar comparisons to what Isaac Newton saw under his apple tree.
I saw three different objects fall to the ground…an acorn, a leaf, and a small stick. I wondered how and why they fell the way they did. The stick fell from the very top of the tree and seemed to almost “slow down” about half way down. The acorn got faster all the way to the ground. Yet the leaf would just float back and forth in a calm rhythm like motion.
Furthermore, I could see the moon sitting up in the sky just waiting to peak over the trees at dark.
How is it that all objects are apparently affected by the earth’s gravity but they seem to respond differently? If gravity is a force that affects all objects…shouldn’t all objects respond the same? Interesting Phenomenon huh….

Can you explain what is happening with each of these four objects (including the moon)?

Achemical reaction (also known as a chemical change) produces substances that are chemically different from the starting materials. an example of a chemical reaction is the formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen gas.in a physical change, a substance changes its physical appearance but not its chemical identity. an example of physical change is the formation of liquid water from solid water, a familiar process called melting. physically, liquid water looks very different from solid water (ice) but the chemical identity, water, is the same for both. which of following changes that affect the composition of our atmosphere involve physical changes and which involve chemical reactions? oxygen gas changes to ozone during thunderstorms carbon dioxide is produced by the combustion of gasoline in an automobile engine. when coal, oil, and natural gas are decomposed in landsills they produce methane gas. freezing rain develops when a warm air mass overrides a cold air mass. fog forms from water vapor when the temperature drops below the dew point

The characteristic of two different types of reactions are shown below. reaction a: electrons are gained by the atoms of an element. reaction b: protons are lost by the atom of and element. which statement is true about the atoms of the elements that participate in the two reactions? a: their identity changes in both reaction a and b. b: their identity changes in reaction a but not b. c: their identity changes in reaction b but not a. d: their identity remains the same.

When hydrochloric acid reacts with potassium hydroxide solution, the following reaction occurs. hcl (aq) + koh (aq) h2o (l) + kcl (aq) the reaction gives off heat energy, so it is an reaction.
