Answer:

Explanation:

It's Newton's first law of motion, and object in motion continues to stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. In this case, your body is the force that's moving on the bus. When you jump(the unbalanced force) your body is still used to being in motion, which makes you fall and not land on your feet.

An aluminum cylinder with a radius of 2.7 cm and a height of 67 cm is used as one leg of a workbench. The workbench pushes down

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

$1.9\times 10^{-4}$

$1.2\times 10^{-4}\ m$

Explanation:

r = Radius = 2.7 cm

F = Force = $3.2\times 10^4\ N$

A = Area = $\pi r^2$

$\sigma$ = Stress = $\frac{F}{A}$

E = Young's modulus = $7\times 10^{10}\ Pa$

$\epsilon$ = Strain

$L_0$ = Original length = 67 cm

$\Delta L$ = Change in length

Young's modulus is given by

$E=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon}\\\Rightarrow \epsilon=\frac{\sigma}{E}\\\Rightarrow \epsilon=\frac{\frac{3.2\times 10^4}{\pi 0.027^2}}{7\times 10^{10}}\\\Rightarrow \epsilon=0.0001996=1.9\times 10^{-4}$

Strain is $1.9\times 10^{-4}$

Strain is given by

$\epsilon=\frac{\Delta L}{L_0}\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=\epsilon\times L_0\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=1.9\times 10^{-4}\times 0.67\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=0.0001273\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=1.2\times 10^{-4}\ m$

The cylinder height decreases by $1.2\times 10^{-4}\ m$

Which trophic level has the least available energy in kilojoules in this food web?

insens350 [35]

The highest trophic level has the least available energy in kilojoules.

Even though the food web is not shown in the question, but we know that energy decreases steadily as it is passed on from one trophic level to the next according to the second law of thermodynamics.

Energy enters into the system from the sun. The primary producers utilize this energy to produce food. As plants are eaten by animals, this energy is transferred along the food web an diminishes at each higher trophic level.

At the highest trophic level, the the least available energy in kilojoules in this food web is found.
