Answer:

300 N

Explanation:

We have three forces acting on the object:

- W = 1500 N, downward: the weight of the object

- F1 = 1200 N, upward: the force exerted by the first man

- F2, upward: the force exerted by the friend

In order to lift the object, the sum of the two forces F1 and F2 must be at least equal to the weight of the object W. Therefore we can write

F_1 +F_2 = W

And from this equation, we can find the magnitude of F2:

F_2 = W-F_1 = 1500 N-1200 N=300 N

To Find :

Which element accumulates in the environment due to the use of  fertilizers.

Solution :

Most of the fertilizers used in daily practice are nitrogen fertilizers .

When soil became waterlogged, soil organisms take the oxygen they need from nitrates, leaving the nitrogen in a gaseous form which escapes into the air.

Also, nitrogen is very stable and did not participate in most of the reactions.

So, nitrogen is accumulates in the environment .

Therefore, option C. is correct.

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

d. 25 ms

Explanation:

  • In a RC circuit we call time constant to the product of the resistance times the capacitance, which represents the time when the charge reaches to the 63% of the final value, as follows:

       \tau_{1} = R_{1} *C_{1}  = 5 ms (1)

  • If we have a new circuit with new values for R and C, the time constant will be defined in the same way, as follows:

       \tau_{2} =10* R_{1} *0.5*C_{1}  = 5*(R_{1}* C_{1}) = 5* \tau_{1} = 5* 5 ms = 25 ms (2)
