What changes dead plants and animals into ammonia compounds?

lapo4ka [179]

Nitrogen fixing bacteria changes dead plants and animals into ammonia compounds.

<h2>What is nitrogen fixation?</h2>

Atmospheric nitrogen is converted into nitrogen oxides by the action of lightning, which helps its incorporation into the soil.

<h3>Characteristics of Nitrogen fixing bacteria</h3>

Nitrogen is fixed by these bacteria and other prokaryotes through various metabolic processes, which convert it into different usable compounds, such as ammonia (NH3) and ammonium ion (NH4+).

These microorganisms can be found in soil and water, or as plant symbionts.

Therefore, we can conclude that nitrogen fixing bacteria fix nitrogen from the air, that is, they originate soluble compounds by plants, such as ammonia.

Two objects are moving in the xy-plane. Object A has a mass of 3.2 kg and has a velocity = (2.3 m/s)i+ (4.2 m/s)j and object B h

prisoha [69]

The total momentum of the system is 2.14i + 21.27j.

A vector quantity with both direction and magnitude is momentum. Kg m/s (kilogram meter per second) or N s serve as its units (newton second).

The total starting momentum of a system must match the entire final momentum of the system since momentum is a conserved quantity. The overall momentum does not change.

The total momentum of the system is defined as follows:

As momentum is vector quantity and vectors can be added, so, the momentum of a system is given by

P = Pₓ + P'

where Pₓ is the x-component of momentum

P' is the y-component of the momentum

Also, we know that

P=mv

where m is mass

v is velocity

Thus,

P = Pₓ + P'

P = m₁vₓ + m₂v'

vₓ is the x-component of the velocity

v' is the y- component of the velocity

Given, m₁= 3.2kg

m₂ = 2.9kg

Now,

P = 3.2 (2.3i + 4.2j) + 2.9 (-1.8i +2.7j)

P = (7.36i + 13.44j) + (-5.22i + 7.83j)

P = 2.14i + 21.27j

Thus, the total momentum of the given system is 2.14i + 21.27j.

A capacitor is charged until it holds 5.0 j of energy. it is then connected across a 10-kω resistor. in 13.6 ms , the resistor d

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The capacite is C=5.32 uF using the equations of voltage and energy in capacitance

Explanation:

The energy holds is 5 J and the resistor dissipates 2J so the energy total is 3J

Using:

$V_{t}= V_{o}e^{\frac{-t}{R*C} }$

Voltage in this case is the energy dissipated so

$E_{t}= E_{o}e^{\frac{-t}{R*C} }$

$\frac{\sqrt{E_t} }{\sqrt{E_o} } = e^{\frac{-t}{R*C} }$

$\frac{\sqrt{3 J} }{\sqrt{5J} } = e^{\frac{-13.6ms}{10kw*C} }$

Using the equation to find capacitance

$ln 0.775= e^{\frac{-13.6 x10^{3} }{10x10^{3}*C }} \\ln(0.775)= ln * e^{\frac{-13.6 x10^{3s} }{10x10^{3}*C }} \\\\ln(0.775)= {\frac{-13.6 x10^{3} }{10x10^{3}*C }} \\C= \frac{-13.6 x10^{-3} }{10x10x^{3}*ln(0.775) }$

$C= 5.32x10^{-6}$ F

C= 5.32 uF because u is the symbol for micro that is equal to $10^{-6}$

A helium balloon has a pressure of 40 psi at 20°C. What will the pressure be at 40°C? Assume constant volume and mass.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

P V = N R T ideal gas equation

P2 / P1 = T2 / T1 where the other variables are constant

P2 = (T2 / T1) * P1 = (313 / 293) * 40 psi = 42.7 psi
