Answer: Consumer

Explanation:

A food chain is a series of distribution of energy in the form of food, when one organism is eaten up by the other organism. A producer is an organism which produces it own food and source of energy either from simple chemical substances like chemosynthesis or by utilizing the light energy from the sun, in the presence of water and carbon dioxide that is through photosynthesis.

A consumer is an organism which is incapable of producing it's own food, and depends upon the producers and other consumers for their food and energy requirements.

CaHeK987 [17]

Complete question:

A block of solid lead sits on a flat, level surface. Lead has a density of 1.13 x 104 kg/m3. The mass of the block is 20.0 kg. The amount of surface area of the block in contact with the surface is 2.03*10^-2*m2, What is the average pressure (in Pa) exerted on the surface by the block? Pa

Answer:

The average pressure exerted on the surface by the block is 9655.17 Pa

Explanation:

Given;

density of the lead, ρ = 1.13 x 10⁴ kg/m³

mass of the lead block, m = 20 kg

surface area of the area of the block, A = 2.03 x 10⁻² m²

Determine the force exerted on the surface by the block due to its weight;

F = mg

F = 20 x 9.8

F = 196 N

Determine the pressure exerted on the surface by the block

P = F / A

where;

P is the pressure

P = 196 / (2.03 x 10⁻²)

P = 9655.17 N/m²

P = 9655.17 Pa

Therefore, the average pressure exerted on the surface by the block is 9655.17 Pa

In Challenge Example 11.9 (p. 280), after the explosion, suppose that the m1 fragment shot directly north at 12 m/s and the m3 f

Inga [223]

The question is incomplete. The mass of the object is 10 gram and travelling at a speed of 2 m/s.

Solution:

It is given that mass of object before explosion is,m = 10 g

Speed of object before explosion, v = 2 m/s

Let $m_1, m_2 \text{ and}\ m_3$ be the masses of the three fragments.

Let $v_1, v_2 \text{ and}\ v_3$ be the velocities of the three fragments.

Therefore, according to the law of conservation of momentum,

$mv=m_1v_1 +m_2v_2+m_3v_3$

$10 \times 2 \hat i=3 \times 12 \hat{j} + 3(v_{2x} \hat{i}+v_{2y} \hat{j})-4 \times 9 \hat{j}$

So the x- component of the velocity of the m2 fragment after the explosion is,

$3v_{2x} = 20$

∴ $v_{2x} = 6.67 \ m/s$

A ball of mass m, attached to the end of a horizontal cord, is rotated in a circle of radius r on a frictionless horizontal surf

kirza4 [7]

Answer: $v=\sqrt{\frac{FL}{m}}$

Explanation:

Given

Ball of mass m

maximum Bearable Tension in string is F

Let length of the cord be L m and moving at a speed of v m/s

Here Tension will Provide Centripetal Force

T=Centripetal Force

$F=T=\frac{mv^2}{L}$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{FL}{m}}$

Mrac [35]

Franklin must not drive through a flood for there may no road at all under the water, unless he is familiar with the road and the flowing water is below one foot.

Moreover, if negotiating a flooded section of road, he must drive in the middle where the water will be at its shallowest and he must not drive through water against approaching vehicle to consider other drivers.
