Fossil fuels are formed by organic remains that have been buried under rock. "Organic remains" can include animals and plants (think of oil and dinosaurs).

Fossil fuels were formed by the compression of dead plants and animals due to high pressure and temperature.
Some fossil fuels are coal, petroleum and natural gas

A wave with a frequency of 325 Hz. is travelling at a speed of 125 m/s. What is the wavelength of this wave?
ollegr [7]

Answer:

0.385 meters

Explanation:

Just remember this very simple equation:

velocity=(wavelength)*(frequency)

I always remember it as "Velma is Waving Frantically"

So, 125=(wavelength)*(325)

Therefore, wavelength=0.385 meters!

Hope this helped!

PLZ HELP IM REALLY CONFUSED a boy is playing catch with his friend. He throws the ball straight up. When it leaves his hand, the
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

K.E = 100 J

Final P.E = 100 J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of any object can be given by the following formula:

K.E = (\frac{1}{2})mv^{2}

where,

K.E = Kinetic Energy

m = mass of ball = 2 kg

v = speed of ball

Initially, v = 10 m/s. Therefore, the initial K.E is given as:

K.E = (\frac{1}{2})(2\ kg)(10\ m/s)^{2}

<u>K.E = 100 J</u>

Now, at the highest point the K.E of the ball becomes zero. because the ball stops for a moment at the highest point and its velocity becomes zero. So, from Law of Conservation of energy:

Initial K.E + Initial P.E = Final K.E + Final P.E

Initial P.E is also zero due to zero height initially.

K.E + 0 = 0 + Final P.E

<u>Final P.E = 100 J</u>
