Why should we conserve biodiversity​

Physics
1 answer:
irga5000 [103]3 years ago

Biodiversity conservation protects plant, animal, microbial and genetic resources for food production, agriculture, and ecosystem functions such as fertilizing the soil, recycling nutrients, regulating pests and disease, controlling erosion, and pollinating crops and trees.

Hurricane sandy produced some of the greatest destruction along the new jersey coast in communities situated along narrow strips
FrozenT [24]

The correct answer to fill in the blank would be:

“a barrier island”

Barrier islands are coastal landforms and a category of dune system that are remarkably even or lumpy areas of sand that was formed by wave and tidal actions that are parallel to the mainland coast. Due to this feature, there are no enough sand blockades to minimize the destruction by Hurricane Sandy.

How does a change in thermal energy cause matter to change from one state to another?
Mnenie [13.5K]
Thermal energy gives the particles of the substance kinetic energy because temperature is an average measure of kinetic enegy of the particle. If we give them thermal energy the particle will move faster, gaining enough energy to escape and become free. For example, from solid to liquid, the particles would espace their fixed position and be free to move as a liquid.

Independent practice
coldgirl [10]

Explanation:

formula: <u>Mass</u>

Density x volume

2a) m=10kg v=0.3m³

10÷0.3=33.3 kg/m

2b) m = 160 kg V=0.1m³

160÷0.1=1600 kg/m

2c) m = 220 kg V = 0.02m³

220÷0.02=11000 kg/m

A wooden post has a volume of 0.025m³ and a mass of 20kg. Calculate its density in kg/m.

density = volume ÷ mass

20÷ 0.025=800 kg/m

Challenge: A rectangular concrete slab is 0.80m long, 0.60 m wide and 0.04m thick. Calculate its volume in m³.

Formula : Length x width x height = Volume

0.80 x 0.60 x 0.04 = 0.0192m³

B) The mass of the concrete slab is 180 kg. Calculate its density in kg/m.

density = volume ÷ mass

180 ÷ 0.0192 = 9375 kg/m

A 75-kg sprinter accelerates from rest to a speed of 11.0 m/s in 5.0 s. (a) calculate the mechanical work done by the sprinter d
mezya [45]

The mechanical work done by the sprinter during this time will be 4537.5 J , the average power the sprinter must generate will be 907.5 W and if the sprinter converts food energy to mechanical energy with an efficiency of 25% then he will be burning calories at 54.20 calories per second.

Work in physics is the energy that is transferred to or from an item when a force is applied along a displacement. It is frequently described in its most basic form as the result of force and displacement.

The quantity of energy moved or transformed per unit of time is known as power in physics. The watt, or one joule per second, is the unit of power in the International System of Units.. A scalar quantity is power.

Given 75-kg sprinter accelerates from rest to a speed of 11.0 m/s in 5.0 s.

So let,

m = 75 kg

v = 11.0 m/s

t = 5.0 s

So the mechanical work done by the sprinter during this time will be as follow:

W = 0.5 mv²

W = 0.5 (75)(11)²

W = 4537.5 J

The average power the sprinter must generate will be as follow:

Power(P) = W / t

P =  4537.5/5

P = 907.5 W

Only 25% is absorbed. So, the sprinter only absorbed 226.875 J per second which is equal to 54.20 calories per second.

Hence   mechanical work done by the sprinter during this time will be 4537.5 J , the average power the sprinter must generate will be 907.5 W and if the sprinter converts food energy to mechanical energy with an efficiency of 25% then he will be burning calories at 54.20 calories per second.
