Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter C. three times as much

Explanation:

Data

First step = 6 m

Second step = 18 m

Potential energy is the energy stored that depends on its position.

Formula

Pe = mgh

m = mass; g = gravity; h = height

Potential energy of the first step

        Pe1 = 6mg

Potential energy of the second step

        Pe2 = 18mg

-Divide the Pe2 by the Pe1

        Pe2/Pe1 = 18mg/6mg

                       = 3

What term best defines the process that occurs when nuclei combine to produce a nucleus with more mass?
bekas [8.4K]
I just answered your other question and wrote all the definitions of the terms. I would say this is probably refering to Fusion because you are fusing together more nuclei into one nucleus. Fusion= bringing separate things into one entity.

Which of the following situations contains an example of a chemical reaction?
bogdanovich [222]

A bicycle rusting after it is left in the rain is an example of a chemical reaction because it involves oxidation (Option d).  

<h3>What is a chemical reaction?</h3>

A chemical reaction can be defined as a phenomenon in which one or more substances called reactants react to form one or more different compounds, which are known as products.

A chemical reaction may include an enzyme that works to increase the seed of the reaction in normal conditions by lowering the activation energy of the reaction.

Therefore, we can conclude that a chemical reaction such as oxidation in a bicycle is a process where reactants combine or break down to form the products of such reaction.

Complete question:

Which of the following situations contains an example of a chemical reaction?

a. Ice forming after water is placed in a freezer

b. Watercolor paint drying on paper

c. a sugar cube dissolving in a glass of water

d. a bicycle rusting after it is left in the rain
