Answer:Radiologic Dispersal Devices (RDD)
Explanation:
Radiologic Dispersal Device (RDD) is commonly known as dirty bomb. These devices require little more skill than is needed to make a conventional bomb and their components are easier to acquire. RDDs utilize conventional explosives to disperse a radioactive material packaged in the device, as opposed to a nuclear device, which creates radiation with its explosion.
As this mechanical energy is associated with height, it would be "Potential Energy" in particular.
U = mgh
U = F.h
U = 1.5 * 4
U = 6 Joules
So, 6 J of energy is lost before it hits the ground.
Hope this helps!
