1 answer:

4 0

Mainly it belongs in the deciduous forest biome. The U.S also includes the desert, tundra, and coniferous forest biomes.

Put this under 'Geography' next time.

Hope this helps!

A car owner forgets to turn off the headlights of his car while it is parked in his garage. If the 12.0-V battery in his car is

avanturin [10]

Answer: 22.6 hours

Explanation:

The power is the measure of the rate of energy.

In this problem, the 12.0 V battery is rated at 51.0 Ah, which means it delivers 51.0 A of current in a time of t = 1 h = 3600 s. The power delivered by the battery can be written as

$P=IV$

where

I is the current

V = 12.0 V is the voltage of the battery

So the energy delivered by the battery can be written as

$E=Pt=VIt$

Where

$It=51.0 A\cdot h = 51.0 A \cdot 3600 s/h=183,600 A\cdot s$

So the energy delivered is

$E=(12.0)(183,600)=2.2\cdot 10^6 J$

At the same time, the headlight consumes 27.0 W of power, so 27 Joules of energy per second; Therefore, it will remain on for a time of:

$t=\frac{2.2\cdot 10^6 J}{27.0 W}=81481 s = 22.6 h$

A 45 kg bear slides, from rest, 11 m down a lodgepole pine tree, moving with a speed of 5.8 m/s just before hitting the ground.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

change in the gravitational potential energy of the bear-Earth system during the slide = mgh

= 45 x 9.8 x 11

= 4851 J

b )

kinetic energy of bear just before hitting the ground

= 1/2 m v²

= .5 x 45 x 5.8²

= 756.9 J

c ) If the average frictional force that acts on the sliding bear be F

negative work done by friction

= F x 11 J

then ,

4851 J - F x 11 = 756.9 J

F x 11 = 4851 J - 756.9 J

= 4094.1 J

F = 4094.1 / 11

= 372.2 N

Adhira loves to ride her bike around the neighborhood. She starts riding 1.2 miles at 30° S of E. Then, she rides another 2.0 mi

zepelin [54]

Answer:

D = 1.8677 miles , θ = 24.28º at South of West

Explanation:

This is an exercise in adding vectors, the easiest way to solve them is to decompose the vectors and add each component algebraically. Let's use trigonometry

first displacement. d = 1.2 miles to 30º south of East

cos ( 360-30) = cos (-30) = x₁ / d

sin (-30) = y₁ / d

x₁ = d cos (-30)

y₁ = d sin (-30)

x₁ = 1.2 cos (-30) = 1,039 miles

y₁ = 1.2 sin (-30) = -0.6 miles

second shift. d = 2.0 miles to 20º West of South

cos (270-20) = x₂ / d

cos (250) = y₂ / d

x₂ = 2.0 cos 250 = -0.684 miles

y₂ = 2.0 sin250 = -1.879 miles

Third displacement. d = 1.6 miles to 30º South of West

cos (180 + 30) = x₃ / d

sin (210) = y₃ / d

x₃ = 1.6 cos 210 = -1.3856 miles

y₃ = 1.6 sin 210 = -0.8 miles

Fourth displacement. d = 2.6 miles to 15º West of North

cos (90 + 15) = x₄ / d

sin (105) = y₄ / d

x₄ = 2.6 cos 105 = -0.6729 miles

y₄ = 2.6 sin 105 = 2,511 miles

having all the components we add

x-axis (West-East direction)

X = x₁ + x₂ + x₃ + x₄

X = 1.039 -0.684 - 1.3846 - 0.6729

X = -1.7025 miles

Y = y₁ + y₂ + y₃ + y₄

Y = -0.6 -1.879 -0.8 +2.511

Y = -0.768

The modulus of this displacement is we use the Pythagorean theorem

D = √ (X² + Y²)

D = √ (1.7025² + 0.768²)

D = 1.8677 miles

let's use trigonometry to find the direction

tan θ = Y / X

θ = tan⁻¹ Y / x

θ = tan⁻¹ (0.768 / 1.7025)

θ = 24.28º

as the two components are negative this angle is in the third quadrant

therefore in cardinal direction form is

θ = 24.28º at South of West

A rock thrown with speed 8.50 m/s and launch angle 30.0 ∘ (above the horizontal) travels a horizontal distance of d = 19.0 m bef

frez [133]

Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown below.

The vertical component of the launch velocity is
v = (8.5 m/s)*sin30° = 4.25 m/s
The horizontal component of the launch velocity is
8.5*cos30° = 7.361 m/s

Assume that aerodynamic resistance may be ignored.
Because the horizontal distance traveled is 19 m, the time of travel is
t = 19/7.361 = 2.581 s

The downward vertical travel is modeled by
h = (-4.25 m/s)*(2.581 s) + 0.5*(9.8 m/s²)*(2.581 s)²
= 21.675 m

Answer: The height is 21.7 m (nearest tenth)
