While trees are not the largest level in the pyramid of numbers, they are still the base for both the pyramids of biomass and py

ramids of energy.
True or False??
Physics
1 answer:
Oxana [17]2 years ago
6 0
It is true because <span>A pyramid of biomass is a representation of the amount of energy contained in biomass, at different trophic levels for a given point in time . The amount of energy available to one trophic level is limited by the amount stored by the level below. Because energy is lost in the transfer from one level to the next, there is successively less total energy as you move up trophic levels. Tree is a base as it provides food and energy.</span>

One of the harmonics on a string 1.30m long has a frequency of 15.60 Hz. The next higher harmonic has a frequency of 23.40 Hz. F
Alja [10]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{(a) 7.800 Hz; (b) 20.3 m/s; 40.6 m/s; 60.8 m/s}}

Explanation:

a) Fundamental frequency

A harmonic is an integral multiple of the fundamental frequency.

\dfrac{\text{23.40 Hz}}{\text{15.60 Hz}} = \dfrac{1.500}{1} \approx \dfrac{3}{2}

f = \dfrac{\text{24.30 Hz}}{3} = \textbf{7.800 Hz}

b) Wave speed

(i) Calculate the wavelength

In a  fundamental vibration, the length of the string is half the wavelength.

\begin{array}{rcl}L & = & \dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\\text{1.30 m} & = & \dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\\lambda & = & \text{2.60 m}\\\end{array}

(b) Calculate the speed s

\begin{array}{rcl}v_{1}& = & f_{1}\lambda\\& = & \text{7.800 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{20.3 m/s}\\\end{array}

\begin{array}{rcl}v_{2}& = & f_{2}\lambda\\& = & \text{15.60 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{40.6 m/s}\\\end{array}

\begin{array}{rcl}v_{3}& = & f_{3}\lambda\\& = & \text{23.40 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{60.8 m/s}\\\end{array}

You lift a 10-N physics book up in the air a distance of 1.0 m, at a constant velocity
Anarel [89]

The book is lifted upward, but gravity points down, so the work done by gravity must be negative (so you can eliminate options 1 and 3).

The force exerted on the book by gravity has magnitude

<em>F</em> = <em>mg</em> = (10 N) (9.80 m/s^2) = 9.8 N ≈ 10 N

You raise the book 1.0 m in the opposite direction, so the work done is

<em>W</em> = (10 N) (-1.0 m) = -10 J

One beam of electrons moves at right angles to a magnetic field. the force on these electrons is 4.9 x 10-14 newtons. a second b
diamong [38]
Below are the choices that can be found elsewhere:

A. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · tan(30°) 
<span>B. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · sin(30°) </span>
<span>C. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · cos(30°) </span>
<span>D. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · arctan(30°) </span>
<span>E. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · arccos(30°)
</span>
<span>Force is proportional to the angle made by the velocity with respect to the magnetic field. It is maximum when velocity is perpendicular to the magnetic field and minimum when the velocity is parallel to the magnetic field. It is proportional to sin of the angle. In this problem it will be proportional to sin(30)</span>

Technician A says a short to voltage may or may not blow a fuse and may or may not affect more than one circuit. Technician B sa
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

C. Both A and B

Explanation:

Fuses are rated by the amperage they can carry before heat melts the element. The fuse is ideal for protection against short circuits. Short circuits produce enough amperage to vaporize a fuse element and break connection in one cycle of a 60-cycle system.

Specifically, the voltage rating determines the ability of the fuse to suppress the internal arcing that occurs after a fuse link melts and an arc is produced.

The law of conservation of energy states:
Alborosie

Answer:

In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. ... For instance, chemical energy is converted to kinetic energy when a stick of dynamite explodes.
