The amount of energy lost at the transition between each trophic level of the pyramid of energy is about 90%.

There are a total of 4 trophic levels.

The producers which bare plants represent the first trophic level. Herbivores represent the second trophic level. Carnivores represent the third trophic level. Top carnivores represent the fourth trophic level.

The 10 % rule is followed by the energy flow in a food chain. It means that moving from one trophic level to another, only 10% of energy is transferred and the rest is lost in the atmosphere.

So the 90% percent energy is lost at the transition between each trophic level of the pyramid of energy.

Burka [1]

Answer:

a) Batteries and fuel cells are examples of galvanic cell

b) Ag-cathode and Zn-anode

c) Cell notation:  Zn(s)|Zn²⁺(aq) || Ag⁺(aq)|Ag(s)

Explanation:

a) A galvanic cell is an electrochemical cell in which chemical energy is converted to electrical energy. The chemical reaction which drives a galvanic cell is a redox reaction i.e. a reduction-oxidation process.

A typical galvanic cell is composed of two electrodes immersed in a suitable electrolyte and connected via a salt bridge. One of the electrodes serves as a cathode where reduction or gain of electrons takes place. The other half cell functions as an anode where oxidation or loss of electrons occurs. Batteries and fuel cells are examples of galvanic cells.

b) The nature of the electrode that will serve as an anode or cathode depends on the value of the standard reduction potential (E⁰) of that electrode. The electrode with a higher or more positive the value of E⁰ serves as the cathode and the other will function as an anode.

In the given case, the E⁰ values from the standard reduction potential table are:

E⁰(Zn/Zn2+) = -0.763 V

E°(Ag/Ag+)=+0.799 V

Therefore, Ag will be the cathode and Zn will be the anode

c) In the standard cell notation, the anode half cell is written on the left followed by the salt bridge '||' and finally the cathode half cell to the right.

Zn(s)|Zn²⁺(aq) || Ag⁺(aq)|Ag(s)

Suppose you have a 136-kg wooden crate resting on a wood floor. The coefficient of static friction is 0.4 and coefficient of kin
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The the maximum force acting on the crate is 533.12 newtons.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the wooden crate, m = 136 kg

The coefficient of static friction, \mu_s=0.4

The coefficient of kinetic friction, \mu_k=0.2

We need to find the maximum force exerted horizontally on the crate without moving it. As the crate is not moving than the coefficient of static friction will act and the force is given by :

F=\mu_s mg

F=0.4\times 136\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2

F = 533.12 N

So, the maximum force acting on the crate is 533.12 newtons. Hence, this is the required solution.

an open tank has the shape of a right circular cone (see figure). the tank is 8 feet across the top and 6 feet high. how much wo
Liono4ka [1.6K]

The amount of work done in emptying the tank by pumping the water over the top edge is 163.01* 10³ ft-lbs.

Given that, the tank is 8 feet across the top and 6 feet high

By the property of similar triangles, 4/6 = r/y

6r = 4y

r = 4/6*y = 2/3*y

Each disc is a circle with area, A = π(2/3*y)² = 4π/9*y²

The weight of each disc is m = ρw* A

m = 62.4* 4π/9*y² = 87.08*y²

The distance pumped is 6-y.

The work done in pumping the tank by pumping the water over the top edge is

W = 87.08 ∫(6-y)y² dy

W = 87.08 ∫(6y³ - y²) dy

W =  87.08 [6y⁴/4 - y³/3]

W =  87.08 [3y⁴/2- y³/3]

The limits are from 0 to 6.

W =  87.08 [3*6⁴/2 - 6³/3] = 87.08* [9*6³ - 2*36] = 87.08(1872) = 163013.76 ft-lbs

The amount of work done in emptying the tank by pumping the water over the top edge is 163013.76 ft-lbs.
