Explanation:
In physical sciences, mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. It is the macroscopic energy associated with a system. The principle of conservation of mechanical energy states that if an isolated system is subject only to conservative forces, then the mechanical energy is constant. If an object moves in the opposite direction of a conservative net force, the potential energy will increase; and if the speed (not the velocity) of the object changes, the kinetic energy of the object also changes. In all real systems, however, nonconservative forces, such as frictional forces, will be present, but if they are of negligible magnitude, the mechanical energy changes little and its conservation is a useful approximation. In elastic collisions, the kinetic energy is conserved, but in inelastic collisions some mechanical energy may be converted into thermal energy. The equivalence between lost mechanical energy (dissipation) and an increase in temperature was discovered by James Prescott Joule.
Explanation:
It is given that a particle covers 10m in first 5s and 10m in next 3s. so using the equation of motion
Case I
s=ut+

20=10u+25a
4=2u+5a..............(1)
Case 2
In next 3s the particle covers more 10m distance. So
20=8u+

a(8)

5=2u+8a.........(2)
On solving equation (1) and (2)
4=2u+5a
5=2u+8a
a=

Put the value of a in equation (1)
u=

Now to find distance in next 10 s. total time will be 10s
s=

s=28.33m
Distance travelled in next 2 sec
s=28.33−20=8.33m
I think the answer is periodic motion.
Answer: O horizon
Horizons refers to the distinct layers of soil lying parallel to the earth surface. Horizons develop as a result of soil formation. Soil forms as a result of weathering or rocks and addition of organic matter from the decomposition of plant and animal waste. Each horizon differs from the others on the basis of color, texture, type of particles present in the soil, type of minerals present and amount of organic matter present in the soil.
O horizon is the soil horizon that is located closest to the earth's crust. This horizon consist of undecayed or partially decayed animal and plant waste like shedded leaves, bark, animal skin and feces. As, the matter remains undecomposed, therefore, this horizon consists of low amount of organic matter and it is less fertile for plant growth.
