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.

Two workers pull horizontally on a heavy box. but one pulls twice as hard as the other. The larger pull is directed at 21.0° wes

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of F1 is

$|F1|=358.74 \ N$

The magnitude of F2 is

$|F2|=179.37\ N$

And the direction of F2 is

$\alpha = 44.214^o$

Explanation:

<u>Net Force </u>

Forces are represented as vectors since they have magnitude and direction. The diagram of forces is shown in the figure below.

The larger pull F1 is directed 21° west of north and is represented with the blue arrow. The other pull F2 is directed to an unspecified direction (red arrow). Since the resultant Ft (black arrow) is pointed North, the second force must be in the first quadrant. We must find out the magnitude and angle of this force.

Following the diagram, the sum of the vector components in the x-axis of F1 and F2 must be zero:

$\displaystyle -2F\ sin21^o+F\ cos\alpha =0$

The sum of the vertical components of F1 and F2 must equal the total force Ft

$\displaystyle -2F\ cos21^o+F\ sin\alpha =460$

Solving for $\alpha$ in the first equation

$\displaystyle cos\alpha =\frac{2F\ sin21^o}{F}=2sin21^o$

$\displaystyle cos\alpha =0.717=>\alpha =44.214^o$

$\displaystyle F(2cos21^o+sin\alpha)=460$

$\displaystyle F=\frac{460}{2cos21^o+sin\alpha}$

$\displaystyle F=\frac{460}{2cos21^o+sin44.214^o}$

$\displaystyle F=179.37\ N$

The magnitude of F1 is

$|F1|=2*F=358.74 \ N$

The magnitude of F2 is

$|F2|=179.37\ N$

And the direction of F2 is

$\alpha = 44.214^o$

Explain what effect losing a gamma ray has on a nucleus.

gogolik [260]

Answer:

Hi, Since energy levels in the nucleus are much higher than those in the gas, the nucleus will cool down by emitting a more energetic electromagnetic wave called a gamma ray . Gamma ray emission causes no change in the number of particles in the nucleus meaning both the atomic number and mass number remain the same.
