What demonstrates the flow of energy and materials through

1 answer:

3 0

A. Food chain

A food web also shows the flow of energy and materials through an ecosystem but in a complex web, not a single chain. A biogeochemical cycle does not deal with the flow of energy/materials through an ecosystem at all.

Under metric prefixes, if a meter were divided into 100 equal-sized subunits, a single unit would be called a

joja [24]

Answer:

In metric prefixes, if a meter were divided into 100 equal-sized subunits, a single unit would be called a centimeter.

Explanation:

Here we asked to divide 1 meter in to 100 equal parts.

Let us find out what is the length of piece when 1 m is divided in to 100 equal parts.

Length

$l = \frac{1}{100} = 0.01m$

That is length of 1 m divided into 100 equal parts is 0.01m.

We know that 0.01 m is 1 centimeter.

So, in metric prefixes, if a meter were divided into 100 equal-sized subunits, a single unit would be called a centimeter.

What is the potential energy of the system composed of the three charges q1, q3, and q4, when q1 is at point R? Define the poten

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Incomplete question check attachment for complete question

Also it is given that

q1=-0.7uC

q4=-1.7uC

q3=-1.7uC

Also the distance are given as

a=2.2cm=0.022m

d2=3.6cm=0.036m

Explanation:

The potential energy due to point R is given as

The potential energy due to charge q1 and q3 plus the potential energy due to charge q4 and q1 plus the potential energy due to charge q3 and q4

So, let take it one after the other

Potential energy is give as

P.E=kq1q2/r

Therefore,

Potential energy due to charge q1 and q3

U¹³=kq1q3/r

To get the distance between charge q1 and q3, we will apply Pythagoras theorem

r=√(d2²+a²)

r=√(0.036²+0.022²)

r=0.0422m

k is a constant =9×10^9Nm²/C²

Then,

U¹³=kq1q3/r

U¹³=9×10^9×0.7×10^-6×1.7×10^-6/0.0422

U¹³=0.254J

Potential energy due to charge q1 and q4

U¹⁴=kq1q4/r

To get the distance between charge q1 and q4, we will apply Pythagoras theorem

r=√(d2²+a²)

r=√(0.036²+0.022²)

r=0.0422m

k is a constant =9×10^9Nm²/C²

Then,

U¹⁴=kq1q4/r

U¹⁴=9×10^9×0.7×10^-6×1.7×10^-6/0.0422

U¹⁴=0.254J

Potential energy due to charge q3 and q4

U³⁴=kq3q4/r

r=2a=2×0.022=0.044m

k is a constant =9×10^9Nm²/C²

Then,

U³⁴=kq3q4/r

U³⁴=9×10^9×1.7×10^-6×1.7×10^-6/0.044

U¹⁴=0.591J

Then, the total energy is

U= U¹³+ U¹⁴ + U³⁴

U=0.254+0.254+0.591

U=1.099J

Then also, the potential energy is zero because at infinity both U¹³ and U¹⁴ will have infinite potential because their distance apart will be infinite.

In the long jump, an athlete launches herself at an angle above the ground and lands at the same height, trying to travel the gr

NikAS [45]

A) 2.64t

B) 2.64h

C) 2.64D

Explanation:

The motion of the athlete is equivalent to the motion of a projectile, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- A uniformly accelerated motion (constant acceleration) along the vertical direction

The time of flight of a projectile can be found from the equations of motion, and it is found to be

$t=\frac{2u sin \theta}{g}$

where

u is the initial speed

$\theta$ is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, when the athlete is on the Earth, the time of flight is $t$ .

When she is on Mars, the acceleration due to gravity is:

$g'=0.379 g$

where g is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth. Therefore, the time of flight on Mars will be:

$t'=\frac{2usin \theta}{g'}=\frac{2u sin \theta}{0.379g}=\frac{1}{0.379}t=2.64t$

The maximum height reached by a projectile can be also found using the equations of motion, and it is given by

$h=\frac{u^2 sin^2\theta}{2g}$

where

u is the initial speed

$\theta$ is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, when the athlete is on the Earth, the maximum height is $h$ .

When she is on Mars, the acceleration due to gravity is:

$g'=0.379 g$

where g is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth. So, the maximum height reached on Mars will be:

$h'=\frac{u^2 sin^2\theta}{2g'}=\frac{u^2 sin^2\theta}{(0.379)2g}=\frac{1}{0.379}h=2.64h$

The horizontal distance covered by a projectile is also found from the equations of motion, and it is given by

$D=\frac{u^2 sin(2\theta)}{g}$

where:

u is the initial speed

$\theta$ is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, when the athlete is on the Earth, the horizontal distance covered is D.

When she is on Mars, the acceleration due to gravity is:

$g'=0.379 g$

where g is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth. Therefore, the horizontal distance reached on Mars will be:

$D'=\frac{u^2 sin(2\theta)}{g'}=\frac{u^2 sin(2\theta)}{(0.379)g}=\frac{1}{0.379}D=2.64D$
