Answer:
Since ecosystems contain many different species of animals, plants, and other organisms, consumers have a variety of food sources. The pattern of feeding represented by these interconnected and branching food chains is called a food web. Figure 36-3 shows how food chains within a food web are interconnected.
Explanation:
Answer:
D. 20.4m
Explanation:
assuming there is no initial velocity, where v=final velocity, g=acceleration due to gravity, and t=time
v = g*t
20 = 9.8*t
t =2.03 s
y = (1/2) g t^2 where y=vertical distance, g=acceleration due to gravity, and t=time
y = 4.9 (2.03)^2
y = 20.4 meters
Answer:
The greater the period the faster the wave moves (Figure 10.5).
Explanation:
Let's think about the system that includes the spacecraft, the astronaut,
and all the equipment tied to him. In this system, nothing is moving relative
to anything else, so the total linear momentum is zero.
Now, suddenly, a blast of gas leaves the astronaut's little SCUBA tank, and
hisses away from him and the spacecraft, in that direction ===> .
The momentum of the cloud of nitrogen is
(mass) x (speed)
= (0.03 kg) x (900 m/s)
= 27 kg-m/s in that direction ===> .
Now is the perfect time to recall that momentum is conserved.
It can't be suddenly created or destroyed, it can't appear out of
nowhere, it can't disappear into nowhere, and the total amount
of momentum in a system is constant.
In order to keep the total momentum of this system constant, the
astronaut himself gets 27 kg-m/s of momentum in this direction <=== .
The mass of him and his equipment is 320 kg.
So ...
27 kg-m/s <== = (320 kg) x (speed <==)
Speed = 27 kg-m/s / 320 kg
= 0.084375 m/s in this direction <===
