Answer: C solar energy

Solar energy has the greatest impact on primary productivity.

Explanation:

Primary productivity is the amount of organic compounds synthesized from carbon dioxide. Primary production occurs by the process of photosynthesis. Since the process of photosynthesis uses sunlight as the energy source solar energy has the greatest impact on primary productivity.

The synthesis can occur in atmosphere as well as aquatic environment. The organisms that perform the function of primary production are called producers .In terrestrial regions plants are the producers and in aquatic systems algae are the primary producers.

Anettt [7]

Answer:

the answer is B

Melting point, temperature at which the solid and liquid forms of a pure substance can exist in equilibrium. As heat is applied to a solid, its temperature will increase until the melting point is reached. More heat then will convert the solid into a liquid with no temperature change.

A ball of radius R and mass m is magically put inside a thin shell of the same mass and radius 2R. The system is at rest on a ho

dlinn [17]

Answer:

$x =\frac{-R}{2}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that mass

Thin layer radius $= 2R$

Generally the expression for ths solution is given as

Xcm =(m*0 =m(-2R))/2m =-mR/(2m)=-R/2

the center of mass will not move at initial state

Considering the center of mass of both bodies

$xcm=\frac{m*x+m*x)}{2m} =x$

$x =\frac{-R}{2}$

Therefore the enclosing layer moves $x =\frac{-R}{2}$

A car whose total mass is 800kg travelling with a uniform velocity of 20m/s suddenly observes a stationary dog 50m ahead on its

maxonik [38]

Answer:

The driver hits the stationery dog because the applied force is less than required force

Explanation:

Kinetic energy will be given by

$KE=0.5mv^{2}$ where m is the mass of the vehicle and v is the speed/velocity of the vehicle.

Substituting 800 Kg for m and 20 m/s for v we obtain

$KE=0.5*800*(20 m/s)^{2}=160,000$

Frictional force by vehicle pads is given by

$Fr=\frac {KE}{d}$ where d is the distance moved

Substituting 160000 for KE and 50 m for d we obtain

$Fr=\frac {160000}{50}=3200 N$

Therefore, the vehicle hits the dog since the required force is 3200N but the driver applied only 2000 N
