The answer would be (option B) - When an object falls, its gravitational potential energy is changed to kinetic energy. You can use this relationship to calculate the speed of the object’s descent. Gravitational potential energy for a mass m at height h near the surface of the Earth is mgh more than the potential energy would be at height 0. (It’s up to you where you choose height 0.)

The answer is 
B) a flowerpot falling from a balcony.
This is the answer because potential energy is basically when something is standing still. Kinetic energy is the opposite, its when something is moving. So the flowerpot was still but something knocked it over and the potential energy was turned into kinetic energy. In option A, the kinetic energy is being turned into potential energy singe the car stopped moving. In option C, the cow is just storing potential energy and it is not being transformed into kinetic energy since the cow is not moving. Option D is not the answer because once again, this says the bike is slowing down, which means that the kinetic energy is decreasing and being turned into potential energy.

pychu [463]
<h2>Endothermic Process</h2>

Explanation:

An example of endothermic process is :

Heat is needed for water to boil.

Endothermic process can be defined as a process in which heat energy is absorbed from the surrounding that bring about changes in the molecular level like breaking chemical bonds, inter-molecular force of attraction etc.

Boiling of water is an endothermic process because during this process water absorbs heat , its kinetic energy increases and then it boils.

Where does the sedimentary rock chalk form? from the precipitation of minerals in shallow marine environments by the lithificati
Katarina [22]

The correct answer is an accumulation of microorganisms in deep marine environments.

Chalk rock refers to a pure form of limestone produced in tropical and warm seas about 100 million years ago in the Cretaceous period. The microscopic marine algae known as coccoliths thrived in the ancient seas. Their shells were comprised of calcite. With the death of the algae, their bodies sunk to the floor of the sea and sediment of chalk got deposited.

Over many years layers of chalk sediment got deposited and resulted in compaction of loose sediment into solid chalk rock.

Which of the following movements of ocean water has the greatest direct effect on the growth of producers?
andrew-mc [135]
I believe the correct answer is upwelling. Lets say we have producers such as plankton. well upwelling currents bring dead matter from the ocean floor up to the surface, creating plankton.
