Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Studies about the time period of oxygen accumulation suggests that free oxygen was first produced by prokaryotic and then later by eukaryotic organisms in the ocean. These organisms carried out photosynthesis more efficiently, producing oxygen as a waste product.

The organism mainly responsible for this is known as cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae. These microbes conduct photosynthesis: using sunshine, water and carbon dioxide to produce carbohydrates and, oxygen.

Do man made elements have a greater number than natural elements
Furkat [3]
A synthetic element is one of 24 chemical elements that do not occur naturally on Earth: they have been created by human manipulation of fundamental particles in a nuclear reactor, a particle accelerator, or the explosion of an atomic bomb; thus, they are called "synthetic", "artificial", or "man-made". The synthetic elements are those with atomic numbers 95–118, as shown in purple on the accompanying periodic table:[1] these 24 elements were first created between 1944 and 2010. The mechanism for the creation of a synthetic element is to force additional protons onto the nucleus of an element with an atomic number lower than 95. All synthetic elements are unstable, but they decay at a widely varying rate: their half-lives range from 15.6 million years to a few hundred microseconds.

Choose the best description of the attraction between you and your classmate.
Lerok [7]

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. There is not enough information to answer this question

Explanation:

The universal gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ 3³/(kg·s²)

For an in between distance of 1 m and equal masses of 60 kg, we have;

F = G \times \dfrac{m_{1}  \times m_{2}}{r^{2}} = 6.67408 \times 10^{-11}  \times \dfrac{60 \times 60}{1^{2}}  \approx  2.403 \times 10^{-7} N

The gravitational attraction ≈ 2.403 × 10⁻⁷ N, which does not correspond with the answers, therefore, the best option is that there is not enough information to answer this question.

A hovering mosquito is hit by a raindrop that is 50 times as massive and falling at 8.4 m/s, a typical raindrop speed. How fast
kenny6666 [7]

The final velocity after the collision is 8.2 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, if we consider the system to be isolated (=no external unbalanced forces), the total momentum of the raindrop+mosquito must be conserved before and after the collision.

If the collision is perfectly inelastic, moreover, the raindrop and the mosquito stick together and travel at the same velocity v after the collision.

Mathematically:

p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v  

where:  

m_1 is the mass of the first mosquito

u_1 = 0 is the initial velocity of the mosquito

m_2 = 50 m_1 is the mass of the raindrop

u_2 = 8.4 m/s is the initial velocity of the raindrop

v is the final combined velocity of the raindrop+mosquito

Re-arranging the equation and substituting, we find:  

m_1 u_1 + 50 m_1 u_2 = (m_1 + 50 m_1) v\\50 m_1 u_2 = 51 m_1 v\\50 u_2 = 51 v\\v=\frac{50}{51}u_2 = \frac{50}{51}(8.4)=8.2 m/s
