In any closed ecosystem, if we put some snails and some plants in them, the snails would survive for a while but next day they will die, this is because of the reason that the snails can survive for a while in closed ecosystem but the waste products which takes place in the ecosystem due to both the plants as well as the snails affects the snails due to which they are likely to die soon.

The reason why the snails are dead because the snails lack oxygen for it is a model of closed ecosystem. Another reason to this is that they lack  abiotic factors that they need in surviving or as they live for the place that they are living lacks a lot and are not enough for them to last or survive. Lastly, the water could have not been a contributor for them to live for they may not be able to live in a water environment and could only dwell in land.

When the cylinder is displaced slightly along its vertical axis it will oscillate about its equilibrium position with a frequenc
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

w = √[g /L (½ r²/L2 + 2/3 ) ]

When the mass of the cylinder changes if its external dimensions do not change the angular velocity DOES NOT CHANGE

Explanation:

We can simulate this system as a physical pendulum, which is a pendulum with a distributed mass, in this case the angular velocity is

          w² = mg d / I

In this case, the distance d to the pivot point of half the length (L) of the cylinder, which we consider long and narrow

         d = L / 2

The moment of inertia of a cylinder with respect to an axis at the end we can use the parallel axes theorem, it is approximately equal to that of a long bar plus the moment of inertia of the center of mass of the cylinder, this is tabulated

        I = ¼ m r2 + ⅓ m L2

        I = m (¼ r2 + ⅓ L2)

now let's use the concept of density to calculate the mass of the system

        ρ = m / V

        m = ρ V

the volume of a cylinder is

         V = π r² L

          m =  ρ π r² L

let's substitute

        w² = m g (L / 2) / m (¼ r² + ⅓ L²)

        w² = g L / (½ r² + 2/3 L²)

        L >> r

         w = √[g /L (½ r²/L2 + 2/3 ) ]

When the mass of the cylinder changes if its external dimensions do not change the angular velocity DOES NOT CHANGE

A ball with mass of 0.050 kg is dropped from a height of h1 = 1 .5 m. It collides with the floor, then bounces up to a height of
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Impulse of reaction force of floor = change in momentum

Velocity of impact = √ 2gh₁

= √ 2 x 9.8 x 1.5 = 5.4 m /s.

velocity of rebound = √2gh₂

= √ 2x 9.8 x 1

= 4.427 m / s.

Initial momentum = .050 x 5.4 = .27 kg m/s

Final momentum = .05 x 4.427 = .22 kg.m/s

change in momentum = .27 - .22 = .05 kg m/s

Impulse = .05 kg m /s

Impulse = force x time

force = impulse / time

.05 / .015 = 3.33 N.

kinetic energy = 1/2 m v²

Initial kinetic energy = 1/2 x .05 x 5.4²

= 0.729 J

Final Kinetic Energy =1/2 x .05 x 4.427²

= 0.489 J

Change in Kinetic energy =0 .24 J

Lost kinetic energy is due to conversion of energy into sound light etc.

Why to astronauts appear weightless while they are filmed performing activities inside the orbiting space shuttle?
vagabundo [1.1K]
<h2>Answer: The astronauts are falling at the same rate as the space shuttle as it orbits around earth</h2>

The astronauts seem to float because they are in free fall just like the spacecraft.

However, although they are constantly falling on the Earth, they do not fall because the ship orbits at a sufficient speed (in the same direction of rotation of the Earth) so that the centrifugal force is balanced with the Earth's gravitational pull.

In other words:

The spaccraft and the astronauts are in free fall but the Earth's surface will never be reached as long as they does not decrease the speed.

Then, as they accelerate toward Earth (regardless of their mass), it curves beneath them and never comes close.

That's why astronauts, having the same acceleration as the spacecraft, feel weightless and see themselves floating.

Sherry and Ellen are talking about the factors that affect light scattering in the atmosphere. Sherry says one factor is the len
Delvig [45]

Sherry who says one factor is the length of the path of sunlight is correct.

<h3>Factors affecting light scattering</h3>

There are two main factors which affects light scattering, and they include the following;

  1. the size of the particles
  2. wavelength of the light

length of the path of sunlight is equivalent to wavelength of the light.

Thus, we can conclude that Sherry who says one factor is the length of the path of sunlight is correct.
