K.E1=1/2×100×3²
=50×9
=450J
K.E2=1/2×100×36
=50×36
=1800J
Is there a multiple choice?
Answer:
"Scientist use radioactive decay to measure the age of a rock or fossil."
Explanation:
"To establish the age of a rock or a fossil, researchers use some type of clock to determine the date it was formed. Geologists commonly use radiometric dating methods, based on the natural radioactive decay of certain elements such as potassium and carbon, as reliable clocks to date ancient events."
Answer: the most potential energy == 5 kg book, 2 m from the ground= 98 Joules
Explanation:
potential energy = m g h
m = mass
g = acceleration due gravity = 9.8 m/s²
h = distance above ground
1. Pe₁ = 1 kg x 2 m x g = 2 g
2. Pe₂ = 5 kg x 2 m x g = 10 g = 10 kg m x 9,8 m/s² = 98 Joules
3. Pe₃ = 1 kg x 0,5 m x g = 0,5 g
4. Pe₄ = 5 kg x 0.5 m x g = 2,5 g
10 > 2,5 > 2 >0,5
