How do I figure out if the acceleration is negative, positive or zero ?

1 answer:

8 0

Use acceleration = Final Velocity - Initial Velocity. So for the first one:
1.6m/s - 3.6m/s = -2.6m/s. This means the velocity changed by a negative amount so the acceleration is negative.

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Autotrophs

Explanation:

When you go down a food chain continuing to ask "what does it eat?" the last living thing that you will land upon is an autotroph.

Autotrophs are the primary producers as they (photoautotrophs) use the energy either from the sun to prepare there food by the process of photosynthesis or, more rarely, obtain chemical energy through oxidation (chemoautotrophs) to make organic substances from inorganic ones.

Autotrophs get consumed by the primary consumers in the food chain.

mixer [17]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the ejected electrons increases.

Explanation:

As we know that electrons are only ejected from a metal surface if the frequency of the incident light increases the work function of the metal. If the frequency of the incident light is less than the work function of the metal no matter how intense the beam the electrons will not be ejected from the surface.

Using conservation of energy principle we have

$E_{incident}=h\nu +\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

If we increase the intensity of incident light the term on the LHS of the above equation increases this increase appears in the kinetic energy term in RHS of the equation since $h\times \nu$ remains constant.
