The potential energy in stone A will release a small amount of energy due to the large mass of stone A so that the acceleration of the movement of rock to the ground is high.

The potential energy in stone B will release a large amount of energy due to the small mass of stone B so that the acceleration of rock to slow ground transfer.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2>

Potential energy is also called quiescent energy because objects that are at rest can have energy. When the object moves, then the object undergoes a change in potential energy that becomes motion energy. Potential energy has several forms including gravitational potential energy, spring potential energy, and others.

Potential energy is the energy that influences an object because of the position (height) of the object whose tendency is boundless to the direction of the force generated by that potential energy. SI unit to measure effort and energy is Joule (symbol J). The term "potential energy" was first put forward by a Scottish technician and physicist, William Rankine. In general, potential energy is the energy possessed by an object because it has a certain height from the ground. Potential energy exists because of the gravity of the earth.

Elastic potential energy is the potential energy of an elastic object (for example a bow) that changes shape due to pressure or compression. The result is that a force will emerge that will try to return the shape of the object to its original form. If the pressure/distance is released, then this energy will move into kinetic energy.

Answer:

According to Newton's second law, when the same force is applied to two objects of <u>different masses</u>, <u>an object with greater mass will experience a smaller acceleration and the object with less mass will experience a greater acceleration. </u>

The Potential/Kinetic energy of rock A will have more stored energy than rock B at the same height since it is lighter.

The Potential/Kinetic energy for rock B doesnt store as much energy as the heavier rock A.

_____ describes why similar organisms do not interbreed because of a physical barrier.
julia-pushkina [17]

Allopatric Speciation describes why similar organisms do not interbreed because of a physical barrier.

Explanation:

The specific situation in which the population of identical species doesn’t interbreed or leaves in isolation with each other is referred as ‘allopatric speciation’.  It is also considered a specification of geographical factors.

The factors that work as a barrier to the process of breeding between same groups of organisms are- mountain formation, formation of water bodies, agriculture etc. These natural and human occurrences affect the geography of a place that influences the separation in species.

The insect which is most likely to transmit infectious encephalitis is:
sattari [20]

Answer:

Mosquito.

Explanation:

Encephalitis may be defined as the medical condition of the inflammation of brain. The symptoms of encephalitis are fever, headache, confusion and seizures.

The mosquito is mainly responsible for the transmission of encephalitis virus. Japanese encephalitis is transmitted by the bite of the culex mosquito. Ticks are also responsible for transmission of the disease but they are not insects.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).
