Why do you think there are so many more autotrophs than consumers on Earth? Helppp

There are many Autotrophs than consumers because : Autotrophs are the bases of any food chain/web

<h3>Function of Autotrophs </h3>

Autotrophs capture the energy required for every food chain or web from which sustains other organisms in the food chain form sunlight and chemicals. Also there is always more biomass present in the lower levels of the trophic system as biomass decreases as we move up the food chain.

Since autotrophs are producers, for a healthy food chain there would be more autotrophs than consumers.

Hence we can conclude that There are many Autotrophs than consumers because : Autotrophs are the bases of any food chain/web

Describe The energy conversions that occur when coal is formed, and then burned to produce thermal energy.
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

When energy contained in coal is turned into heat, and then into electrical energy. As boiling water heated by the burning coal is cooled, steam forges from these cone-shaped cooling towers.

Which of the following is NOT true? a. The higher the moment of inertia, the greater the resistance to changes in angular veloci
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is the integral of the product of the squared distance by the mass differential. Is the mass equivalent in the rotational motion

a) True. When the moment of inertia is increased, more force is needed to reach acceleration, so it is more difficult to change the angular velocity that depends proportionally on the acceleration

b) True. The moment of inertia is part of the kinetic energy, which is composed of a linear and an angular part. Therefore, when applying the energy conservation theorem, the potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, the rotational part increases with the moment of inertia, so there is less energy left for the linear part and consequently it falls slower

c) True. The moment of inertial proportional to the angular acceleration, when the acceleration decreases as well. Therefore, a smaller force can achieve the value of acceleration and the change in angular velocity. Consequently, less force is needed is easier

Sonar is used to map the ocean floor. if an ultrasonic signal is received 3.3 s after it is emitted, how deep is the ocean floor
Goryan [66]
The speed of sound in fresh water is 1482m/s. 
It says ocean floor, so we should a little bit more accurate, and use the fact that the speed of sound in salt water (that has no bubbles) is 1560m/s. 
speed = distance / time 
Therefore Distance = speed x time = 1560 x 3.3 = 5158m 
The sonar wave is sent out by the boat, reflected off the seafloor, and then is received back at the boat on the surface. So the distance 5148m is the distance from the boat to the sea bottom and then back up to the boat again. 
So the depth of the water is half this distance Depth of water = 5148/2=2574m

A cart of mass 0.8 kg on a horizontal frictionless track has a tension of 4 N applied to on side of the cart. Calculate the acce
sweet [91]

Answer:

Option (c).

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a cart, m = 0.8 kg

Tension in the car, F = 4 N

Net force, F = ma

a is acceleration of the cart.

So,

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{4\ N}{0.8\ kg}\\\\a=5\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the cart is 5\ m/s^2.
