How is energy transferred between trophic levels in a food chain?

Physics
1 answer:
Anastaziya [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The amount of energy at each trophic level decreases as it moves through an ecosystem. As little as 10% of the energy at any trophic level is transferred to the next level, the rest is lost largely through metabolic processes as heat.

A catcher in a baseball game stops a pitched ball that was originally moving at 44 m/s over a distance of 12.5 cm. the mass of t
eduard

Answer:

Force = -1161.6 Newton

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity, u = 44m/s

Distance ,s = 12.5cm to m = 12.5/100 = 0.125m

Mass = 0.15kg

To find the acceleration;

We would use the third equation of motion;

V ² = U² + 2as

0² = 44² + 2*a*0.125

0 = 1936 + 0.25a

0.25a = -1936

a = -1936/0.25

Acceleration, a = -7744m/s2

Force = mass * acceleration

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Force = 0.15 * (-7744)

Force = -1161.6 Newton

The value of its force is negative because the glove decreases the velocity of the ball.

V125BC [204]

Answer:

F = 1.24*10^4 N

Explanation:

Given

Depth of the ship, h = 25 m

Density of water, ρ = 1.03*10^3 kg/m³

Diameter of the hatch, d = 0.25 m

Pressure of air, P(air) = 1 atm

Pressure of water =

P(w) = ρgh

P(w) = 1.03*10^3 * 9.8 * 25

P(w) = 2.52*10^5 N/m²

P(net) = P(w) + P(air) - P(air)

P(net) = P(w)

P(net) = 2.52*10^5 N/m²

Remember,

Pressure = Force / Area, so

Force = Area * Pressure

Area = πr² = πd²/4

Area = 3.142 * 0.25²/4

Area = 3.142 * 0.015625

Area = 0.0491 m²

Force = 0.0491 * 2.52*10^5

F = 12373 N

F = 1.24*10^4 N
