Kinetic energy since if its rolling is already using the stored potential energy that it had before it was given an amount of energy to release it for a given time
The rocks formed from the seafloor sediments deposited in the Amadeus basin were softer than the Arkose sandstone because the Amadeus basin were made up of marine and non-marine sedimentary rocks which are softer compared to quarts which make up mostly the Arkose sandstone.
We can solve the problem by using the first law of thermodynamics:
where
is the change in internal energy of the system
is the heat absorbed by the system
is the work done by the system on the surrounding
In this problem, the work done by the system is
with a negative sign because the work is done by the surrounding on the system, while the heat absorbed is
with a negative sign as well because it is released by the system.
Therefore, by using the initial equation, we find
The answer is A. The outer lines change as it moves
