Two ways biodyversity is valuable

Biodiversity*

Without biodiversity an ecosystem is impossible and all organisms would have to rely on outside sources for energy, in our case the sun would be the only way to survive.

We also rely on biodiversity to create varying habitats, which is not actually necessary for survival but is valuable to humans since we crave identity and if everything were identical we would break down physiologically

kari74 [83]

Answer:

People firstly believe that the planets move in a circular orbit until Newton came up with his hypothesis by inventing calculus so that we could understood and calculated planetary orbits and their accuracy.

Explanation:

Everyone assumed the planets were perfect circles until Newton came up with an idea. Slowly people would make maps of the orbits that added circles on circles, and they could never really explain about the movement of the planet. They simply say that planets move on circles but they lacked the math to explain or prove it. Then Newton came up with an idea of inventing calculus so that we could understood and calculated planetary orbits and their accuracy.
Firstly people used their observations and say that the orbits looked like circles, then they developed their models and did the math, and proposed their hypothesizes which were wrong, until Newton came along and tried to match a model that used elliptical orbits and invented the math that allowed him to make predictions with it. His model worked for most planets.
However he could not explain about the planet Mercury for instance since it was a very strange orbit. Then after the Einstein's theory of General Relativity he could also explain very deeply about it.
Scientists and Astronomers made hypothesizes that there was another planet orbiting too close to the sun to see with telescopes, called Vulcan, that explained mercury's orbit before Einstein's theory. Then long after we had telescopes which was good enough to see if there was a planet orbiting closer to the sun than mercury.

A flywheel in a motor is spinning at 590 rpm when a power failure suddenly occurs. The flywheel has mass 40.0 kg and diameter 75

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello,

Let's get the data for this question before proceeding to solve the problems.

Mass of flywheel = 40kg

Speed of flywheel = 590rpm

Diameter = 75cm , radius = diameter/ 2 = 75 / 2 = 37.5cm.

Time = 30s = 0.5 min

During the power off, the flywheel made 230 complete revolutions.

∇θ = [(ω₂ + ω₁) / 2] × t

∇θ = [(590 + ω₂) / 2] × 0.5

But ∇θ = 230 revolutions

∇θ/t = (530 + ω₂) / 2

230 / 0.5 = (530 + ω₂) / 2

Solve for ω₂

460 = 295 + 0.5ω₂

ω₂ = 330rpm

ω₂ = ω₁ + αt

but α = ?

α = (ω₂ - ω₁) / t

α = (330 - 590) / 0.5

α = -260 / 0.5

α = -520rev/min

ω₂ = ω₁ + αt

0 = 590 +(-520)t

520t = 590

solve for t

t = 590 / 520

t = 1.13min

60 seconds = 1min

X seconds = 1.13min

x = (60 × 1.13) / 1

x = 68seconds

∇θ = [(ω₂ + ω₁) / 2] × t

∇θ = [(590 + 0) / 2] × 1.13

∇θ = 333.35 rev/min

Daffy Duck is standing 6.8 m away from Minnie Duck. The attractive gravitational force between them is 5.4x10-8 N. If Daffy Duck

artcher [175]

Answer:

432.78 Kg

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Distance apart (r) = 6.8 m

Force of attraction (F) = 5.4×10¯⁸ N

Mass of Daffy Duck (M₁) = 86.5 kg

Mass of Minnie Duck (M₂) =?

NOTE: Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

The mass of Minnie Duck can be obtained as follow:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

5.4×10¯⁸ = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5 × M₂ / 6.8²

5.4×10¯⁸ = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5 × M₂ / 46.24

Cross multiply

6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5 × M₂ =5.4×10¯⁸ × 46.24

Divide both side by 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5

M₂ = 5.4×10¯⁸ × 46.24 / 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5

M₂ = 432.78 Kg

Therefore, the mass of Minnie Duck is 432.78 Kg

What is a light year??????????

Mkey [24]

A light-year is a <u>distance</u>.

It's the distance that light travels through vacuum in one year.

The distance is 9.4607 x 10¹² kilometers in metric units, and 5.8786 x 10¹² miles
in 'customary' units, and is normally written without a bunch of question marks.
