Why do we classify living organisms

Physics
1 answer:
DedPeter [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The science of classifying living things is called taxonomy. Scientists classify living things in order to organize and make sense of the incredible diversity of life. Modern scientists base their classifications mainly on molecular similarities. They group together organisms that have similar proteins and DNA.

Explanation:

The science of classifying living things is called taxonomy.

a rectangular block weighs 240N. The area of the block in contact with the floor is 20cm2 calculate the pressure on the floor
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The pressure on the floor is 12 Pascal(Pa).

Explanation:

Given,

Force (F) = 240N

Area (A) = 20 cm^2

Pressure (P) = ?

we know that,

P = F/A

= 240/ 20

= 12 Pa

A newly discovered planet is found to have a density if 2/3pe and a radius of 2RE, where PE and RED are the density and radius o
Liono4ka [1.6K]
Missing question in the text of the exercise. Found on internet:
"What is the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the planet?"

Solution:
The gravitational acceleration at Earth's surface is given by:
g= \frac{GM}{r^2} 
where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth's mass
r is the Earth's radius

The Earth's mass can be rewritten also as the product between the Earth's density, d, and its volume (the volume of a sphere of radius r):
M=dV=d ( \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3)=  \frac{4}{3} \pi d r^3 

Now let's call M' the mass of the new planet, r' its radius and d' its density. The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the new planet is
g' =  \frac{GM'}{r'^2} (1)
so we need to find M' and r'.

The problem says the radius of the new planet is twice the Earth's radius: 
r'=2r (2)
and that its density is 2/3 of Earth's density:
d'= \frac{2}{3} d
so the mass M' of the new planet is, with respect to the Earth's mass:
M' = d'V' = \frac{4}{3} \pi d' (r')^3 =  \frac{4}{3} \pi ( \frac{2}{3}d) (2r)^3 = ( \frac{4}{3} \pi d r^3 )( \frac{16}{3}) =  \frac{16}{3} M (3)

And if we substitute (2) and (3) into (1), we find the gravitational acceleration on the surface of the new planet:
g'= \frac{G( \frac{16}{3}M) }{(2r)^2}=  \frac{GM}{r^2}  \frac{4}{3} =  \frac{4}{3}g
And since g=9.81 m/s^2, we find
g'=  \frac{4}{3}(9.81 m/s^2)=13.1 m/s^2

What type of conducting medium has the highest conductivity?
andreyandreev [35.5K]
I can't really answer this question without giving me any limits to the possibilities of the answers. However, I found a similar problem with a given set of choices. I think the answer is plasma. The medium that has the highest conductivity must be electric or ionized in nature. Since plasma is a very hot ionized gas, then it would be the most conductive out of all the choices.
