Taxonomists have noted that as the number of organisms decreases, the more likely the organisms are to share similar characteristics.

Explanation:

A taxonomist is a biologist that groups organisms into categories.
A plant taxonomist for example, might study the origins and relationships between different types of roses while an insect taxonomist might focus on the relationships between different types of beetles.
Taxonomy is the process of naming and classifying things such as animals and plants into groups within a larger system, according to their similarities and differences.
Taxonomy entails the description, naming, and classification of living things.
It helps us categorize organisms so we can more easily communicate biological information. Taxonomy uses hierarchical classification as a way to help scientists understand and organize the diversity of life on our planet.
A taxonomic characteristic may be defined as any expressed attribute of an organism that can be evaluated and that has two or more discontinuous states or conditions.

The drawing shows two frictionless inclines that begin at ground level (h = 0 m) and slope upward at the same angle θ. One track

Elena L [17]

Answer:

a). $H=2.45m$

b). $H_{max}=1.94m$

Explanation:

For the block that stays on the track, its maximal height is attained when all of the kinetic energy is converted to potential energy

a).

The height for the block on the longer track can by find using this equation:

$\frac{1}{2}*m*v_o^2=m*g*H$

Cancel the mass as a factor in each element in the equation

$H=\frac{v_o^2}{2*g}$

$H=\frac{(6.94m/s)^2}{2*9.8m/s^2}$

$H=2.45m$

b).

The other lost some kinetic energy so, use a projectile motion to determine the total height for the other bock:

$E_k=E_p$

$E_k=m*g*H_1$

$E_k=\frac{1}{2}*m*v_o^2-\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2$

$m*g*H_1=\frac{1}{2}*m*(v_o^2-v^2)$

Solve to v'

$v^2=v_o^2-2*g*H_1$

$v=\sqrt{v_o^2-2*g*H_1}=\sqrt{(6.94m/s)^2-2*9.8m/s^2*1.25m}$

$v=4.8m/s$

$H_{max}=H_1+\frac{v^2*sin(50)}{2*g}=1.25m+\frac{(4.8m/s)^2*sin(50)}{2*9.8m/s^2}$

$H_{max}=1.94m$

A 32.5 g cube of aluminum initially at 45.8 °C is submerged into 105.3 g of water at 15.4 °C. What is the final temperature of b

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

$T = 17.26 ^oC$

Explanation:

At thermal equilibrium we have heat given by aluminium must be equal to the heat absorbed by the water

so we will have

$Q_1 = Q_2$

$m_1s_1\Delta T_1 = m_2s_2\Delta T_2$

so we will have

$32.5(900)(45.8 - T) = 105.3(4186)(T - 15.4)$

so we have

$(45.8 - T) = 15.1(T - 15.4)$

so we have

$16.1 T = 277.87$

$T = 17.26 ^oC$

There is a limit to how long your neck can be. If your neck were too long, no blood would reach your brain! What is the maximum

spayn [35]

Answer:

The maximum height a person's brain could be above his heart is: 1.28 meter.

Explanation:

We need to know what is the normal blood pressure ours hearts so there is a rate: 120/80 (mmHg) and the average will be: 100 (mmHg) and using the Pascal law that relate pressure, density, gravity and height like: $P_{2} = pgh_{1} - pgh_{2} + P_{1}$ , where P is pressure, p is density, g is the gravity acceleration and h is the height. Now we can find the height and delta of pressure will be: P2-P1 = 100 (mmHg), knowing that 1(mmHg) is equal to 133 Pa, we can do the convertion to 13332.2 (Pa), now because the units of Pascal are Newton/(meter^2). Then we solve the formula to get the height: $\frac{P2-P1}{pg} =h$ so we get: $\frac{13332.2}{(1060*9,81)}=Height=1.28(meters).$
