Weeds are very important agronomically because they reduce the yield of crops in three ways: by competing with the crop for water, light and nutrients, by interfering with crop harvest, and by contaminating harvested products with weed seeds and toxins. Weeds can reduce yield up to 50% and are responsible for millions of dollars in crop losses each year.
It’s biotic factor would be competition as Competition can be defined as an interaction between organisms or species, in which the fitness of one is lowered by the presence of another.
Answer:
576 joules
Explanation:
From the question we are given the following:
weight = 810 N
radius (r) = 1.6 m
horizontal force (F) = 55 N
time (t) = 4 s
acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}
K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}
where MI is the moment of inertia and ω is the angular velocity
MI = 0.5 x m x r^2
mass = weight ÷ g = 810 ÷ 9.8 = 82.65 kg
MI = 0.5 x 82.65 x 1.6^{2}
MI = 105.8 kg.m^{2}
angular velocity (ω) = a x t
angular acceleration (a) = torque ÷ MI
where torque = F x r = 55 x 1.6 = 88 N.m
a= 88 ÷ 105.8 = 0.83 rad /s^{2}
therefore
angular velocity (ω) = a x t = 0.83 x 4 = 3.33 rad/s
K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}
K.E = 0.5 x 105.8 x 3.33^{2} = 576 joules
To develop the problem it is necessary to apply the equations related to the moment of inertia.
The given values can be defined as,
According to the definition of the moment of inertia applied to the exercise we can arrive at the equation that,
Where n is the number of spokes necessary to construct the wheel.
Replacing the values at the general equation we have,
Solving for n,
Therefore the number of spokes necessary to construct the wheel is 36
PART B) The mass of the wheel is given by the sum of all masses and the total spokes, then
Therefore the mass of the wheel must be of 1.36Kg
Answer:
You are exactly right. The molecules in hot air are moving faster than the molecules in cold air. Because of this, the molecules in hot air tend to be further apart on average, giving hot air a lower density. That means, for the same volume of air, hot air has fewer molecules and so it weighs less
