Potential energy is energy stored due to its position. Thermal energy is energy released as heat
Answer:
Production of GMOs is a multistage process which can be summarized as follows:
1. identification of the gene interest;
2. isolation of the gene of interest;
3. amplifying the gene to produce many copies;
4. associating the gene with an appropriate promoter and poly A sequence and insertion into plasmids;
5. multiplying the plasmid in bacteria and recovering the cloned construct for injection;
6. transference of the construct into the recipient tissue, usually fertilized eggs;
7. integration of gene into recipient genome;
8. expression of gene in recipient genome; and
9. inheritance of gene through further generations.
Before the engines fail
, the rocket's horizontal and vertical position in the air are


and its velocity vector has components


After
, its position is


and the rocket's velocity vector has horizontal and vertical components


After the engine failure
, the rocket is in freefall and its position is given by


and its velocity vector's components are


where we take
.
a. The maximum altitude occurs at the point during which
:

At this point, the rocket has an altitude of

b. The rocket will eventually fall to the ground at some point after its engines fail. We solve
for
, then add 3 seconds to this time:

So the rocket stays in the air for a total of
.
c. After the engine failure, the rocket traveled for about 34.6 seconds, so we evalute
for this time
:
