Answer:

1. Photosynthesis releases oxygen gas as a product.

2. Subtracting cellular respiration from gross primary productivity

3. True

Explanation:

1. Photosynthesis is the process by which autotrophic organisms synthesize their food in form of sugars in the presence of sunlight. Photosynthetic process combines carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) to form glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen gas as products. The equation is as follows:

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

2. Net primary productivity, denoted by NPP, refers to the amount of biomass present in an ecosystem. It can be calculated by subtracting the amount of CO2 lost via cellular respiration from the amount produced called Gross primary productivity (GPP). That is;

NPP = GPP - cellular respiration

3. The process by which organic matter is synthesized from inorganic ones by organisms called AUTOTROPHS or PRIMARY PRODUCERS is called PRIMARY PRODUCTIVITY. Examples of autotrophic organisms are green plants, algae etc. Hence, in an ecosystem that have a high primary productivity, there would be a rapid rate of conversion of solar energy to biomass via PHOTOSYNTHESIS.

A car is moving at 14 m/s. After 30 s, its speed inncreased to 20 m/s. What is the acceleration over time

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

0.2 m/s^2

Explanation:

initial speed 14m/s

final speed 20m/s

acceleration:

(20m/s - 14m /s) /30s = (6m/s)/30s = 0.2 m/s^2

A 3" diameter germanium wafer that is 0.020" thick at 300K has 1.015 x 10^17 As atoms added to it. What is the resistivity of th

Ber [7]

Answer:

0.546 ohm / μm

Explanation:

Given that :

N = 1.015 * 10^17

Electron mobility, u = 3900

Hole mobility, h = 1900

Ng = 4.42 x10^22

q = 1.6*10^-19

Resistivity = 1/qNu

Resistivsity (R) = 1/(1.6*10^-19 * 1.015 * 10^17 * 3900)

= 0.01578880889 ohm /cm

Resistivity of germanium :

R = 1 / 2q * sqrt(Ng) * sqrt(u*h)

R = 1 / 2 * 1.6*10^-19 * sqrt(4.42 x10^22) * sqrt(3900*1900)

R = 1 /0.0001831

R = 5461.4964 ohm /cm

5461.4964 / 10000

0.546 ohm / μm

Glass is transparent to visibile light under normal conditions; however, at extremely high intensities, glass will absorb most o

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

3 photons

Explanation:

The energy of a photon E can be calculated using this formula:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

Where $h$ corresponds to Plank constant (6.626070x10^-34Js), $c$ is the speed of light in the vacuum (299792458m/s) and $\lambda$ is the wavelength of the photon(in this case 800nm).

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{(6.626070\times10^{-34})(299792458)}{800\times10^{-9}}=\frac{1.986445812\times10^-25}{800}=2.483057265\times10^{-19}J$

Tranform the units

$1eV=1.602176634\times10^{-19}J\\2.483057265\times10^{-19}J(\frac{1eV}{1.602176634\times10^{-19}J})=1.549802445eV$

The band Gap is 4eV, divide the band gap between the energy of the photon:

$\frac{4ev}{1.549802445eV}=2.508974118$

Rounding to the next integrer: 3.

Three photons are the minimum to equal or exceed the band gap.

What is newton's second law of motion?

lord [1]

Answer:

Newton's second law of motion can be formally stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
