Chapter S2, Problem 24EAP

Does It Make Sense?

Decide whether the statement makes sense (or is clearly true) or does not make sense (or is clearly false). Explain clearly; not all of these have definitive answers, so your explanation is more important than your chosen answer.

24. Future technology should allow us to build rockets capable of accelerating to speeds much faster than the speed of light.

What do we mean by mass-energy? Is it a form of kinetic, radiative, or potential energy? How is the idea of mass-energy related to E = mc2? Explain how E = mc2 is at work in our Sun to produce the light and the heat emitted by the star.

What causes Brownian motion?What was Brown's initial observation? How did Einstein help explain this observation?Explain how an increase in temperature effects Brownian motion. Describe the relationship between temperature and the rate of chemical reactions in a living organism.

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can be converted from one form to another but cannot be created or destroyed. Therefore, the amount of energy in the universe is constant. In your initial post to the discussion, respond to the following prompts: What do you think would happen if energy were not conserved? Think of (and share) two scenarios in which our lives would be drastically altered if this law of conservation was not in place. At least one of your scenarios should be at the molecular level. Would the implications be positive? Negative? Explain.
