    ORGANIC Chemistry: Nucleophilic Substitution

    Ohh, that makes more sense... Though, I'm still not completely sure how to go about doing this. We've worked problems like this in class, but the other way. We usually push Br out of the system and then the nucleophile takes its place. Could I pick Br to replace CN in part b? In part a...

    Launching of a Potato (Involve kinetic and potential energy and an angle )

    Launching of a Potato (Involve kinetic and potential energy and an angle!) A potato of mass 210 g is launched from a potato gun, being released from a height of 0.6 m, at an angle of 47o with respect to the horizontal, and with an initial speed of 38 m/s. Assume the effect of air resistance can...
