During this time, the total mechanical energy of the object remains constant.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The sum total of potential energy and the kinetic energy presented in the system is called mechanical energy. The total mechanical energy in the system, which represents the combined potential and kinetic energies, remains constant as long as the only force work at conservative forces, and mechanical energy is maintained on this principle.

For example, a gravity box in which we throw the ball straights up, and then leave the hand with a specific amounts of kinetic energy. In the first half of the track, there is no kinetic energy, but it has potential energy similar to kinetic energy that it had when that left our hand. When we catch that again, it has the same kinetic energy as when that left our hand. That is why gravity belongs to the category of conservative forces.

This technique allowed multiple peoples DNA to be compared to look for
Lady_Fox [76]

DNA sequencing is the technique which allows multiple peoples DNA to be compared to look for similarities and differences in order to solve crime and is denoted as option C.

<h3>What is DNA?</h3>

This is referred to as the deoxyribonucleic acid and contains the genetic components of organisms and is also located in the nucleus. On the other hand, DNA sequencing refers to the process of determining the nucleic acid sequence.

Each organisms has a unique DNA sequence which is why it is used to identify individuals through the use of bodily fluids such as saliva, blood etc.

It is used to compare the similarities and differences in order to solve crime thereby making it the most appropriate choice.

Suppose an automobile has 2000-joules of kinetic energy. when it moves at twice the speed, what will be its kinetic energy? what
NeX [460]

Answer:

K.Eₓ = 4 K.E

K.Eₓ = 9 K.E

Explanation:

Th formula for the kinetic energy of a body is given as follows:

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

where,

K.E = Kinetic Energy of Automobile

m = mass of automobile

v = speed of automobile

For twice speed:

vₓ = 2v

then,

K.E_{x} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{x}^2\\K.E_{x} = \frac{1}{2}m(2v)^2\\K.E_{x} = 4\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\

using equation (1):

<u>K.Eₓ = 4 K.E</u>

For thrice speed:

vₓ = 3v

then,

K.E_{x} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{x}^2\\K.E_{x} = \frac{1}{2}m(3v)^2\\K.E_{x} = 9\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\

using equation (1):

<u>K.Eₓ = 9 K.E</u>
