This mechanism is called primary production . Other organisms called heterotrophs take in autotrophs as food to carry out functions necessary for their life.

Electronegativity is<br>____ at the top of the periodic table.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Electronegativity is a chemical property at the top of the periodic table

Explanation:

electronegativity is a chemical property that measures the ability of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons when it is part of a compound

it's a property of atom that increases as you go to the right and up.

One example is the Pauling scale. it is a numerical scale of electronegativities. It was first developed by Linus Pauling.

it is commonly used to calculate the ability of electronegativity to attract electrons to itself.

The most common electronegative element is Flourine, having an assigned value of 4.0, ranging down to caesium and francium, having the least electronegative at 0.7

a particle of mass m sits at rest at x = 0. At time t = 0 a force given by F = Fe^(-t/T) is applied in the +x direction; F and T

wlad13 [49]

Explanation:

Given: $F=m\ddot{x}=Fe^{-\frac{t}{T}}$

Solving for $\ddot{x}$ :

$\ddot{x}=\frac{F}{m}e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m} } t}$

where:

$T=\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}$

Integrating to get $\dot{x}$ with initial conditions $\dot{x}(0)=0$ :

$\dot{x}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} t}$

Integrating to get x with initial conditions x(0) = 0:

$x=-1+\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} t+e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}t}$

When t=T:

$x=-1+\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}+e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}}=\frac{1}{e}$

$\dot{x}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}(1-\frac{1}{e})$

A 10 kg monkey climbs up a massless rope that runs over a frictionless tree limb and back down to a 15 kg package on the ground.

pshichka [43]

Answer:

A. 4,9 m/s2

B. 2,0 m/s2

C. 120 N

Explanation:

In the image, 1 is going to represent the monkey and 2 is going to be the package. Let a_mín be the minimum acceleration that the monkey should have in the upward direction, so the package is barely lifted. Apply Newton’s second law of motion:

$\sum F_y=m_1*a_m_i_n = T-m_1*g$

If the package is barely lifted, that means that T=m_2*g; then:

$\sum F_y =m_1*a_m_i_n=m_2*g-m_1*g$

Solving the equation for a_mín, we have:

$a_m_i_n=((m_2-m_1)/m_1)*g = ((15kg-10kg)/10kg)*9,8 m/s^2 =4,9 m/s^2$

Once the monkey stops its climb and holds onto the rope, we set the equation of Newton’s second law as it follows:

For the monkey: $\sum F_y = m_1*a \rightarrow T-m_1*g=m_1*a$

For the package: $\sum F_y = m_2*a \rightarrow m_2*g - T = m_2*a$

The acceleration a is the same for both monkey and package, but have opposite directions, this means that when the monkey accelerates upwards, the package does it downwards and vice versa. Therefore, the acceleration a on the equation for the package is negative; however, if we invert the signs on the sum of forces, it has the same effect. To be clearer:

For the package: $\sum F_y = -m_2*a \rightarrow T-m2*g=-m_2*a \rightarrow m_2*g -T=m_2 *a$

We have two unknowns and two equations, so we can proceed. We can match both tensions and have:

$m_1*a+m_1*g=m_2*g-m_2*a$

Solving a, we have

$(m_1+m_2)*a =(m_2 - m1)*g\\\\a=((m_2-m_1)/(m_1+m_2))*g \rightarrow a=((15kg-10kg)/(10kg+15kg))*9,8 m/s^2\\\\a= 2,0 m/s^2$

We can then replace this value of a in one for the sums of force and find the tension T:

$T = m_1*a+m_1*g \rightarrow T=m_1*(a+g)\\\\T = 10kg*(2,0 m/s^2+9,8 m/s^2) \\\\T = 120 N$
