Answer: O horizon

Horizons refers to the distinct layers of soil lying parallel to the earth surface. Horizons develop as a result of soil formation. Soil forms as a result of weathering or rocks and addition of organic matter from the decomposition of plant and animal waste. Each horizon differs from the others on the basis of color, texture, type of particles present in the soil, type of minerals present and amount of organic matter present in the soil.

O horizon is the soil horizon that is located closest to the earth's crust. This horizon consist of undecayed or partially decayed animal and plant waste like shedded leaves, bark, animal skin and feces. As, the matter remains undecomposed, therefore, this horizon consists of low amount of organic matter and it is less fertile for plant growth.

The soil horizon that is located closest to the earth's crust is :
O horizon
On this area, lies a lot of rich nutrients and mineral

hope this helps

A fireman is sliding down a fire pole. As he speeds up, he tightens his grip on the pole, thus increasing the vertical frictiona

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The fireman will continue to descend, but with a constant speed.

Explanation:

In kinetic friction <em>(which is the case discussed here) </em>since the fireman is already in motion because of a certain force, once the frictional force matches the normal force, the fireman will stop accelerating and continue moving at a constant rate with the original speed he had. We will need a force greater than the normal force acting on the fireman to cause a deceleration.

We need to understand the difference between static friction and kinetic friction.

Static friction occurs in objects that are stationary, while kinetic friction occurs in objects that are already in motion.

In static friction, when the frictional force matches the weight or normal force of the object, the object remains stationary.

While in kinetic friction, when the frictional force matches the normal force, the object will stop accelerating. This is the case of the fireman sliding down the pole as discussed above.

An eagle carrying a trout flies above a lake along a horizontal path. The eagle drops the trout from a height of 6.1 m. The fish

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

7.1 m/s

Explanation:

First, find the time it takes for the fish to reach the water.

Given in the y direction:

Δy = 6.1 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

6.1 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 1.12 s

Next, find the velocity needed to travel 7.9 m in that time.

Given in the x direction:

Δx = 7.9 m

a = 0 m/s²

t = 1.12 s

Find: v₀

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

7.9 m = v₀ (1.12 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.12 s)²

v₀ = 7.1 m/s

In an experiment, a large number of electrons are fired at a sample of neutral hydrogen atoms and observations are made of how t

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

N = 1036 times

Explanation:

The radial probability density of the hydrogen ground state is given by:

$p(r) = \frac{4r^{2} }{a_{0} ^{3} } e^{\frac{-2r}{a_{0} } }$

$p(\frac{a_{0} }{2} ) = \frac{4(\frac{a_{0} }{2} )^{2} }{a_{0} ^{3} } e^{\frac{-2(\frac{a_{0} }{2} )}{a_{0} } }$

$p(2a_{0} ) = \frac{4(2a_{0}) ^{2} }{a_{0} ^{3} } e^{\frac{-4a_{0} }{a_{0} } }$

$N = 1300\frac{p(2a_{0}) }{p(\frac{a_{0} }{2} )}$

$N = 1300\frac{(2a_{0}) ^{2}e^{\frac{-4a_{0} }{a_{0} } } }{(\frac{a_{0} }{2} )^{2} e^{\frac{-a_{0} }{a_{0} } }}$

$N = 1300(16) e^{-3}$

N = 1035.57

N = 1036 times
