A 2-kg bowling ball sits on top of a building that is 40 meters tall.

Okay, so this is physics. What is the meaning of KE? It's Kinetic Energy. What is the meaning of GPE? It's Gravitational Potential Energy. So how do you calculate either, and what are their significances? Kinetic -> motion, Gravitational potential energy -> energy that can be used to do work due to gravity. So is the bowling ball moving, or is it someplace it can fall from, or both?

Kinetic energy is calculated as 1/2 * mv^2, where m is the mass of the object, and v is the velocity. Potential energy for conservative forces is the product of the force and the distance over which it can do work. Thus in the case of GPE, it is the weight multiplied by the height, as gravity is a conservative force. What is the weight? It's not equal to the mass.

Hopefully these hints will get you thinking.

Evolutionary relationships between organisms are determined by.
Georgia [21]

Answer:

hope you like it

Explanation:

A molecular clock determines evolutionary relatedness by examining how many mutations or random changes in DNA, there are between two organisms. When we map the relatedness of different organisms, we are creating a phylogenetic tree. At some point, all organisms that are alive today shared a common ancestor.

Which of the following describes the difference between nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15? ( point)
AveGali [126]

Answer:

D. Nitrogen-14 has 7 electrons, 7 protons, 7 neutrons nitrogen-15 has 7 electrons, 7 protons, and 8 neutrons

Explanation:

In an atom, number of electrons is equal to the number of protons.  And the number of neutrons is equal to the difference between the mass number of the atom and the atomic number. For Nitrogen 14, electron is 7, proton is also 7 as number  of electrons and number of protons are equal. So, the neutron will be 14-7= 7. For Nitrogen 15, electron number is 7 so proton number will be also 7. Neutron number for nitrogen 15 will be 15-7= 8. That's why the answer is option number 4.
