When you go "down" the food chain by continuing to ask "what does it eat?" at what category of living things do you always end u
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Autotrophs

Explanation:

When you go down a food chain continuing to ask "what does it eat?" the last living thing that you will land upon is an autotroph.

Autotrophs are the primary producers as they (photoautotrophs) use the energy either from the sun to prepare  there food by the process of photosynthesis or, more rarely, obtain chemical energy through oxidation (chemoautotrophs) to make organic substances from inorganic ones.

Autotrophs get consumed by the primary consumers in the food chain.

Finish A 16 N force is applied to an object and 96 J of work is done. How far was the object moved?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 6 \ meters}}

Explanation:

Work is the product of force and distance.

W=F*d

We know that 96 Joules of work were done and a 16 Newton force was applied to the object.

  • W= 96 J
  • F= 16 N

Substitute the values into the formula.

96 \  J= 16 \ N * d

First, let's convert the units. This will make cancelling units easier later in the problem. 1 Joule (J) is equal to 1 Newton meter (N*m), so the work of 96 Joules equals 96 Newton meters.

96 \ N*m= 16 \ N * d

Now, solve for distance by isolating the variable, d. It is being multiplied by 16 Newtons and the inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 16 N.

\frac {96 \ N*m}{16 \ N}= \frac{16 \ N *d}{16 \ N}

\frac {96 \ N*m}{16 \ N}=d

The units of Newtons cancel.

\frac {96}{16} \ m = d

6 \ m = d

The object moved a distance of <u>6 meters.</u>

Hlo <br><br> what is a force........??
Paha777 [63]

Explanation:

In physics, a force is any interaction that, when unopposed, will change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity.

Formula

Newton's Second Law

F = m * a

F = force

m = mass of an object

a = acceleration

Which one of the following energy conversion devices has the lowest energy efficiency?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

A) incandescent ligth bulb, its efficiency is about 10%

Explanation:

The incandescent bulb, that is, the well-known focus with its warm light, was one of the most useful inventions of the 19th century although its use is currently considered very inefficient. These lamps waste between 80 and 90 percent of the total electricity they consume by turning it into heat. The metal filament thus heated and which is the central part of the bulb, only converts the remaining energy into light. Its service life ranges from 750 to 1,000 hours.

This is why they are used in ovens for food preparation, because of the large amount of heat they generate.

The steam boiler in a power plant depends on the fuel that it is using, but a coal-fired power plant with modern technology its efficiency is about 40%

Electric motor are around 85-92%

In order to better understand the concept of efficiency it is as if we pay 100 dollars of gasoline for our weekly use, but of that 100 dollars the car only uses 10 dollars to do that activity the rest of the money the 90 dollars were lost because of the inefficiencies of the vehicle.

Which of the following is one way that an electric motor's rotation speed can be controlled?
malfutka [58]
Depending on which type of motor you're talking about, but the first 3 are true.  A stronger magnetic field in a DC motor will slow it down but increase its torque.
The amount of current in the motor will control the magnetic fields and therefore affect the speed (and torque).  In an induction motor, the rotational speed is given by n= \frac{120f}{p}  where f is the line frequency and p is the number of poles.  Thus fewer poles makes it go faster.
