The next layer is about 30 million years older and contains plant fossils in its mixed shale, limestone, and sandstone rock layers. The third to last layer is full of brachiopods, trilobites, and trilobite tunnels. You believe it is the oldest layer above surface in the Grand Canyon.
Answer:
a. Work, ΔE is negative;
b. Work, ΔE is negative;
c. Work, ΔE is positive.
Explanation:
In the three cases, there is energy exchange in primarily work. The heat is the energy flow because of the difference in temperature. Of course, some heat may be lost in the cases by dissipation.
In the letter <em>a</em> the system is at an initial velocity different from 0, and then it stops. The energy that is represented here is the kinetic energy, which is the energy of the movement. Note that the system goes from a higher velocity to 0, so it is losing kinetic energy, or work, so ΔE = Efinal - Einitial < 0.
In letter <em>b</em>, the system is falling from a certain high to the floor, so its gravitational potential energy is change. That potential energy represents the energy that gravity does when an object shifts vertically. Because it goes from a high to 0, the energy is been lost, so ΔE = Efinal - Einitial < 0.
In letter <em>c</em>, the system is going higher and with higher velocity, so there is a greatness in the gravitational potential energy and the kinetic energy, both works, so ΔE = Efinal - Einitial > 0.
fusion and fission
Explanation:
the nuclear energy is released by fusion when the nuclei of two atoms are combined while the fission is process when the nucei of two atoms split apart
Answer: The average atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999 amu
Explanation:
Mass of isotope O-16 = 15.995 amu
% abundance of isotope O-16= 99.759 % = 
Mass of isotope O-17 = 16.995 amu
% abundance of isotope O-17 = 0.037% = 
Mass of isotope O-18 = 17.999 amu
% abundance of isotope O-18 = 0.204% = 
Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :
![A=\sum[(15.995\times 0.99759)+(16.995\times 0.00037)+(17.999 \times 0.00204)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D%5Csum%5B%2815.995%5Ctimes%200.99759%29%2B%2816.995%5Ctimes%200.00037%29%2B%2817.999%20%5Ctimes%200.00204%29%5D)
Thus the average atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999 amu
