The answer is metabolic heat.

<span>Organisms from the higher trophic levels consume organisms from the lower trophic level and during that process, energy is lost as metabolic heat. Primary producers (plants) contain the greatest amount of energy originally from the sunlight. The next trophic level belongs to primary consumers that consume primary producers. During consumption, energy is lost. Similarly, secondary consumers eat primary consumers and energy is lost again. The highest trophic level is tertiary consumers that contains the least amount of energy.</span>

While on an ice-fishing trip, you find yourself holding a 10 kg fish but stuck in the middle of
Anna007 [38]

The forward force you exert on the fish and your backward action will allow you to reach the shore.

<h3>Newton's third law of motion</h3>

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Fa = -Fb

Let's assume the fish is held in the hook, this will give you the opportunity to throw the fish forward while still holding it.

When the the fish is thrown forward, you will move backwards with an equal force based on Newton's third law. Your backward momentum towards the shore will help to maintain equal linear momentum between you and the fish.

Thus, this forward force of the fish and your backward action will allow you to reach the shore.

A bungee cord is 30m long and when stretched a distance x itexerts a restoring force of magnitude kx. Your father-in-law (mass95
madam [21]

Answer:

The distance the bungee cord that would be stretched 0.602 m, should be selected when pulled by a force of 380 N.

Explanation:

As from the given data

the length of the rope is given as l=30 m

the stretched length is given as l'=41m

the stretched length required is give as  y=l'-l=41-30=11m

the mass is m=95 kg

the  force is  F=380 N

the gravitational acceleration is g=9.8 m/s2

The equation of  k is given by equating the energy at the equilibrium point which is given as

U_{potential}=U_{elastic}\\mgh=\dfrac{1}{2} k y^2\\k=\dfrac{2mgh}{y^2}

Here

m=95 kg, g=9.8 m/s2, h=41 m, y=11 m so

k=\dfrac{2mgh}{y^2}\\k=\dfrac{2\times 95\times 9.8\times 41}{11^2}\\k=630.92 N/m

Now the force is

F=kx\\ or

x=\dfrac{F}{k}\\

So here F=380 N, k=630.92 N/m

x=\dfrac{F}{k}\\x=\dfrac{380}{630.92}\\x=0.602 m

So the distance is 0.602 m

A clam dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 seconds to hit the ground. What is the seagull's approximate height above the ground at th
ankoles [38]
<h2>The seagull's approximate height above the ground at the time the clam was dropped is 4 m</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

        Time, t = 3 s      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      s = 0 x 3 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 3²

                      s = 44.145 m

The seagull's approximate height above the ground at the time the clam was dropped is 4 m

How are magnetic and electric fields similar?
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Similarities between magnetic fields and electric fields: ... Magnetic fields are associated with two magnetic poles, north and south, although they are also produced by charges (but moving charges). Like poles repel; unlike poles attract. Electric field points in the direction of the force experienced by a positive charge ...

Explanation:

copied and pasted from google. I copied and pasted your question into google and got this exact answer

Here is another thing from the same website just not shortened:

Similarities between magnetic fields and electric fields:

- Electric fields are produced by two kinds of charges, positive and negative. Magnetic fields are associated with two magnetic poles, north and south, although they are also produced by charges (but moving charges).

- Like poles repel; unlike poles attract

- Electric field points in the direction of the force experienced by a positive charge. Magnetic field points in the direction of the force experienced by a north pole.

Differences between magnetic fields and electric fields:

- Positive and negative charges can exist separately. North and south poles always come together. Single magnetic poles, known as magnetic monopoles, have been proposed theoretically, but a magnetic monopole has never been observed.

- Electric field lines have definite starting and ending points. Magnetic field lines are continuous loops. Outside a magnet the field is directed from the north pole to the south pole. Inside a magnet the field runs from south to north.
