Geography

Usually to begin they use the process of relative dating, then chemical dating. Then look at where the environment that we found the fossil to determine if it has always been that environment.  When fossil is found in marine life in a country town suggesting that the environment was previously a marine environment.  Study the rocks that they found the fossils to help determine a relative age. This came before that, but after them to give us an approximate age. Then study the fossil itself to classify it into groups to determine which branch of evolution it has come from. Fossils can be found in rocks, bedding planes, (rock layers), trees (tree ring dating). Mostly there are found in rocks or weathered rocks (sands, mud).

A satellite orbits the earth. The point in orbit farthest from the earth is the apogee and the point nearest the earth the perig
tester [92]

Answer:

The greatest gravitational potential energy is at apogee. The greatest kinetic energy is at perigee. Total Energy is constant.

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy is at its greatest when the satellite is farthest  from the earth, this point is called the apogee. And at this point the kinetic energy will be at its minimum.

The kinetic energy is greatest when the satellite is closest to the earth, this point is the perigee. And at this point the gravitational potential energy will be at a minimum level.

the total energy is the sum of the gravitational potential energy and the kinetic energy.As the satellite orbits the earth, the kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energymay be interchanged but the total energy will remain unchanged.
