Answer:

Because there is less energy at higher trophic levels

Explanation:

In a food chain that shows the feeding levels of organisms in an ecosystem, energy decreases as you move from the lowest trophic level to the highest trophic level.
The lowest trophic level consists of producers which have the highest energy as they trap energy directly from the sunlight.
The energy is lost from one trophic level to the next up to the highest trophic level which has the lowest energy.
Therefore, organisms at the highest trophic level are fewer in number but large in size.

when a constant force acts upon an object the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. when a certain constant

solong [7]

Explanation:

When a constant force acts upon an object the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass.

$a\propto \dfrac{1}{m}$

or

$\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}$

If m₁ = 21 kg, a₁ = 3 m/s², m₂ = 9 kg

We need to find a₂

So,

$a_2=\dfrac{m_1a_1}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{21\times 3}{9}\\\\a_2=7\ m/s^2$

So, if mass is 9 kg, its acceleration is 7 m/s².

One mole of an ideal gas does 3000 J of work on its surroundings as it expands isothermally to a final pressure of 1.00 atm and

taurus [48]

Answer:

(a) Initial volume will be 7.62 L

(b) Final temperature will be 303.85 K

Explanation:

We have given one mole of ideal gas done 3000 J

So work done W = 3000 J

Let initial volume is $V_1$ and initial pressure $P_1=1atm$ ( As pressure is constant )

Final volume $V_2=25L$ = 0.025 $m^3$

Number of moles n = 1

(B) From ideal gas of equation we know that $PV=nRT$

So $1.01\times 10^5\times0.025=1\times 8.31\times T$

T = 303.85 Kelvin

(B) For isothermal process work done is equal to

$W=nRTln\frac{V_2}{V_1}$

$3000=1\times 8.314\times 303.85\times ln\frac{0.025}{V_1}$

$ln\frac{0.025}{V_1}=1.1881$

$\frac{0.025}{V_1}=3.2808$

$V_2=0.00846m^3=7.62L$

So initial volume will be 7.62 L
