Energy that is passed on from one trophic level to the next is called what?

Physics

yan [13]3 years ago
8 0
Energy decreases as it moves uptrophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level.Trophic level transfer efficiency (TLTE) measures the amount of energy that is transferred between trophic levels.

An object is moving north with an initial velocity of 14 m/s accelerates 5m/s for 20 seconds. What is the final velocity of the
olga2289 [7]

Use the kinematic equation: Vf=Vi+at

Then plug;

Vi=14 m/s

a=5 m/s²

t=20 s. Therefore;

Vf=14+(5*20)

Vf=114 m/s.

In a fireworks display, a rocket is launched from the ground with a speed of 18.0 m/s and a direction of 51.0° above the horizon
Masja [62]

Answer:38.66 m

Explanation:

Given

launch angle \theta =51^{\circ}

launch velocity u=18 m/s

center of mass continue to travel its original Path so it center of mass will be at a distance of

R=\frac{u^2\sin 2\theta }{g}

R=\frac{18^2\sin 102}{9.8}

R=32.33 m

Center of mass will be at x=32.33 m

(b)if one of the piece will be at x=26  m then other will be at

x_{com}=\frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2}{m_1+m_2}

x_{com}=\frac{\frac{m}{2}\cdot 26+\frac{m}{2}\cdot x_0}{\frac{m}{2}+\frac{m}{2}}

32.33=\frac{26+x_0}{2}

x_0=38.66 m

A girl (mass M) standing on the edge of a frictionless merry-go-round (radius R, rotational inertia I) that is not moving. She t
vladimir1956 [14]

a) \omega=\frac{-mvR}{I+MR^2}

b) v=\frac{-mvR^2}{I+MR^2}

Explanation:

a)

Since there are no external torques acting on the system, the total angular momentum must remain constant.

At the beginning, the merry-go-round and the girl are at rest, so the initial angular momentum is zero:

L_1=0

Later, after the girl throws the rock, the angular momentum will be:

L_2=(I_M+I_g)\omega +L_r

where:

I is the moment of inertia of the merry-go-round

I_g=MR^2 is the moment of inertia of the girl, where

M is the mass of the girl

R is the distance of the girl from the axis of rotation

\omega is the angular speed of the merry-go-round and the girl

L_r=mvR is the angular momentum of the rock, where

m is the mass of the rock

v is its velocity

Since the total angular momentum is conserved,

L_1=L_2

So we find:

0=(I+I_g)\omega +mvR\\\omega=\frac{-mvR}{I+MR^2}

And the negative sign indicates that the disk rotates in the direction opposite to the motion of the rock.

b)

The linear speed of a body in rotational motion is given by

v=\omega r

where

\omega is the angular speed

r is the distance of the body from the axis of rotation

In this problem, for the girl, we have:

\omega=\frac{-mvR}{I+MR^2} is the angular speed

r=R is the distance of the girl from the axis of rotation

Therefore, her linear speed is:

v=\omega R=\frac{-mvR^2}{I+MR^2}

How do I differentiate between final and initial velocity in Physics?​
pychu [463]

Answer:

Initial velocity describes how fast an object travels when gravity first applies force on the object. On the other hand, the final velocity is a vector quantity that measures the speed and direction of a moving body after it has reached its maximum acceleration.
