A

most common source of phosphates in the soil is the weathering of the mineral apatite.

Explanation:

Apatite is a group of phosphate minerals like hydroxylapatite, fluorapatite, and chlorapatite. When apatite rocks weather, they release the phosphate minerals mainly in the form of PO₄ ³⁻ . These minerals become dissolved in water (hydrosphere), where they are readily available to plants and other organisms in the biosphere. The phosphates are taken up and used in biosynthesis. When these organisms die and become buried with sediments, the phosphate gets back to the lithosphere as sedimentary rock.

You need to remove a broken light bulb from a lamp. without a pair of gloves, you are likely to cut yourself on the jagged glass
mojhsa [17]
<span>You have just demonstrated an insight learning. Internal insight occurs if one learned a new way without the help of environmental factors. In here, what the person initially learned that if one saw a broken light bulb from a lamp, he can be cut through the jagged glass if one does not wear a pair of gloves. And maybe because at the moment, the person could not find one, he felt using a cut potato to pick up the pieces of the broken lamp. This is a demonstration of insight learning. The person found a way to pick up the pieces of the broken lamp by using his instinct at the moment. The person is not influenced by an outside source to tell him to use a potato. </span>

Energy Conservation With Conservative Forces: If a spring-operated gun can shoot a pellet to a maximum height of 100 m on Earth,
crimeas [40]

Answer:

h' = 603.08 m

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the initial velocity of the pellet on the surface of Earth by using third equation of motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth = - 9.8 m/s² (negative sign due to upward motion)

h = height of pellet = 100 m

Vf = final velocity of pellet = 0 m/s (since, pellet will momentarily stop at highest point)

Vi = Initial Velocity of Pellet = ?

Therefore,

(2)(-9.8 m/s²)(100 m) = (0 m/s)² - Vi²

Vi = √(1960 m²/s²)

Vi = 44.27 m/s

Now, we use this equation at the surface of moon with same initial velocity:

2g'h' = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g' = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon = 1.625 m/s²

h' = maximum height gained by pellet on moon = ?

Therefore,

2(1.625 m/s²)h' = (44.27 m/s)² - (0 m/s)²

h' = (1960 m²/s²)/(3.25 m/s²)

<u>h' = 603.08 m</u>

The patellar tendon attaches to the tibia at a 20 deg angle 3 cm from the axis of rotation at the knee. If the force generated i
gregori [183]

Answer:

the resulting angular acceleration is 15.65 rad/s²

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

force generated in the patellar tendon F = 400 N

patellar tendon attaches to the tibia at a 20° angle 3 cm( 0.03 m ) from the axis of rotation at the knee.

so Torque produced by the knee will be;

T = F × d⊥

T = 400 N × 0.03 m × sin( 20° )

T = 400 N × 0.03 m × 0.342

T = 4.104 N.m

Now, we determine the moment of inertia of the knee

I = mk²

given that; the lower leg and foot have a combined mass of 4.2kg and a given radius of gyration of 25 cm ( 0.25 m )

we substitute

I = 4.2 kg × ( 0.25 m )²

I = 4.2 kg × 0.0626 m²

I = 0.2625 kg.m²

So from the relation of Moment of inertia, Torque and angular acceleration;

T = I∝

we make angular acceleration ∝, subject of the formula

∝ = T / I

we substitute

∝ = 4.104 / 0.2625

∝ = 15.65 rad/s²

Therefore, the resulting angular acceleration is 15.65 rad/s²

According to Ohm's law, a circuit with a high resistance _____. will have a low electric current will have a high electric curre
lyudmila [28]
Remark
When you are asked a question like this, the first thing to do is search out a formula and put some limits on it.

Formula
I = E/R which comes from E = IR. To get to the derived formula, divide both sides by R
E/R = I*R/R
E/R = I

Discussion
This is an inverse relationship. That means that as one goes up the other one will go down. 

So in this case you keep E constant and you manipulate R and look at your results for I

Case 1

Let us say that E = 10 volts
Let us also say the R = 10 ohms

I = E/R
I = 10/10
I = 1 ohm

Case Two
Let's raise the Resistance to 100 ohms
E = 10
R = 100
I = 10/100 = 0.1 

Conclusion
As the Resistance goes up, the current goes down. Answer: A
