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.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The words depict the phenomenon of cell division in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

The possible concept map that could be drawn from these words could be:

Number 1:

Cell cycle in a eukaryote occurs through the process of mitosis (or meiosis) and chromosomes duplicate by this process. Cytokinesis separates the two daughter cells by separating the cytoplasm of the two cells.

Number 2:

Cell cycle in a prokaryote involves the method of binary fission.

The large surface area in the gut directly facilitates _____.

Flura [38]

Answer:

B. Absorption

Explanation:

Absorption is a process that takes place in the small intestines or ileum of the GI tract, in which simple and soluble nutrients are absorbed into the blood stream.
Absorption is enhanced by several adaptations of the gut such as large surface area of the gut which directly facilitates absorption of nutrients.
Presence of villi and microvilli in the gut increases the surface area for absorption of nutrients in the ileum.
