The answer is B. build up of plant materials. This is because those rocks that are composed of materials, which are organic matters from decaying plants, formed by biological activity are called biogenic or organic or non-clastic rocks. On the other hand, clastic rocks are made up of gravel, sand, silt, and clay.

If a moving car speeds up until it is going twice as fast, how much kinetic energy doe s it have compared with its initial kinet

dezoksy [38]

The kinetic energy of an object of mass m and velocity v is given by
$K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Let's call $v_i$ the initial speed of the car, so that its initial kinetic energy is
$K_i = \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2$
where m is the mass of the car.

The problem says that the car speeds up until its velocity is twice the original one, so
$v_f = 2 v_i$
and by using the new velocity we can calculate the final kinetic energy of the car
$K_f = \frac{1}{2} mv_f^2 = \frac{1}{2}m (2 v_i)^2 = 4 ( \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2)=4 K_i$
so, if the velocity of the car is doubled, the new kinetic energy is 4 times the initial kinetic energy.
