Answer: The ratio of carnivorous species to all mammal species is 1:20

Explanation:

250:5000 = 250/250 = 1

250:5000 = 5000/250 = 20

Answer = 1:20

Lena [83]

Answer:

After 1 sec = 4.9 m

After 2 sec = 19.6 m

After 3 sec = 44.1 m

After 4 sec = 78.4 m

After 5 sec = 122.5 m

Explanation:

After 1 sec:

u=0m/s t=1 s a=9.8m/s²

s = ut + (1/2)at²

=0(1) + (1/2)(9.8)(1²) = 4.9m

After 2 sec:

u=0m/s t=2 s a=9.8m/s²

s = ut + (1/2)at²

=0(2) + (1/2)(9.8)(2²) = 19.6m

After 3 sec:

u=0m/s t=3 s a=9.8m/s²

s = ut + (1/2)at²

=0(3) + (1/2)(9.8)(3²) = 44.1m

After 4 sec:

u=0m/s t=4 s a=9.8m/s²

s = ut + (1/2)at²

=0(4) + (1/2)(9.8)(4²) = 78.4m

After 5 sec:

u=0m/s t=5 s a=9.8m/s²

s = ut + (1/2)at²

=0(5) + (1/2)(9.8)(5²) = 122.5m

At what height h above the ground does the projectile have a speed of 0.5v?

maw [93]

Answer:

$h=\dfrac{3v^2}{8g}$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the projectile is 0.5 v. Let h is the height above the ground. Using the first equation of motion to find it.

$v=u+at$

$v=u-gt$

Initial speed of the projectile is v and final speed is 0.5 v.

$0.5v=v-gt$

$t=\dfrac{v}{2g}$

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Let h is the height above the ground. Using the second equation of motion as :

$h=vt-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$h=v\dfrac{v}{2g}-\dfrac{1}{2}g(\dfrac{v}{2g})^2$

$h=\dfrac{3v^2}{8g}$

So, the height of the projectile above the ground is $\dfrac{3v^2}{8g}$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

How much heat is evolved when 1234 g of water condenses to a liquid at 100.°c?

lbvjy [14]

During the phase transition vapour --> liquid water, the temperature of the water does not change; the molecules of water release heat and the amounf of heat released is equal to
$Q=mL_e$
where
m is the mass of the water
$L_e$ is the latent heat of evaporation.

For water, the latent heat of evaporation is $L=2257 kJ/kg$ , while the mass of the water is
$m=1234 g=1.234 kg$

so, the amount of heat released in the process is
$Q=mL_e = (1.234 kg)(2257 kJ/kg)=2785 kJ$
