C. At what height would the pomegranate have the same potential energy as the melon? (1 point)

Biology
1 answer:
zvonat [6]2 years ago

Answer:

Given a set of assumptions which are given below, the height at which the pomegranate will have the same potential energy as the melon is 39.19 meters.

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy refers to the acquired innate energy of an object due to its elevation above the surface of the earth.

This energy is the result of gravitational pull or force acting on the object.

In other to determine at what height a pomegranate and a watermelon will have the same potential energy we need to know the other factors in play.

Gravitational Potential Energy (E<em>p</em>)= <em>mgh</em>

Where m = Mass (kg)

            g  =  gravitational field strength (N/kg)

            h  = height (m)

           E<em>p </em>= gravitational potential energy ( <em>j </em>)

Let us assume that the

  • An average pomegranate weighs about 0.255146Kg
  • An average melon weighs about  10Kg
  • g is always constant at 9.8 N/kg

Note that melons weight much more than pomegranates.

   

So, let's calculate for the E<em>p </em>of the melon at the height of  1 meter

E<em>p</em> = 10 x 9.8 X 1 = 98<em>j</em>  

Using the above assumptions, we do a goal seek using Microsoft Excel. Please see the attached image.

Calculation shows that the Height (h/Meters) at which the E<em>p </em>of both veggies become equal is 39.19m

This can be verified by inserting the figure and multiplying it. It can also be calculated as follows:

That is

E<em>p = 98j</em>

<em>m = </em>0.255146kg

<em>g= 9.8kg</em>

<em>h=  ?</em>

98= 0.255146 x 9.8 x <em>h</em>

98 = 2.5004308<em>h (we divide both sides by </em>2.5004308 to make h the subject matter<em>)</em>

<em>h = 98 / </em>2.5004308

<em>h = 39.1932462198</em>

Which is approximately 39.19

Why is it important to keep things from moving through a window screen
Ket [755]

Answer:

Brainliest

Explanation:

Skylight damage is particularly problematic because it an allow moisture to seep into the roof structure and lead to mold and structural damage. Even the rips in window screens limit your protection from the elements as bugs start moving into your home through the ripped screens and cracked windows.

2a) Which of the following statements about pyruvate oxidation IS TRUE?
Darina [25.2K]

The true statements are:

  • Substrate level phosphorylation ocvurs during Pyruvate oxidation
  • 32 ATP molecules can be made by cellular respiration but only 2 ATP molecules when oxygen is lacking
  • Electrons move from protein to protein due to increasing electronegativity in the electron transport chain
  • ADP is phosphorylated in the matrix of the mitochondria during oxidative phosphorylation
  • ATP inhibits pyruvate dehydrogenase by feedback inhibition

<h3>What is glucose oxidation?</h3>

Glucose oxidation refers to the process in the cells in which glucose molecules are oxidized to form ATP and carbon dioxide in the presence of oxygen.

The first stage of glucose oxidation is the conversion to pyruvate.

Pyruvate is oxidized to acetylCoA.

AcetylCoA enters the citric acid cycle to produce reducing equivalents, NADH for the electron transport chain.

  • The true statements about pyruvate oxidation is that there is substrate level phosphorylation during the process
  • When there is sufficient oxygen, 36 ATP molecules can be made (theoretically) by cellular respiration. However, when oxygen is lacking, only 2 ATP molecules are made.
  • In the electron transport chain of cellular respiration, electrons move from protein to protein due to increasing electronegativity
  • During oxidative phosphorylation, ADP is phosphorylated in the matrix of the mitochondria
  • Aerobic respiration can be regulated by feedback inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase by ATP.

A student is setting up a model to study the carbon cycle and natural sources of carbon dioxide. They create a microenvironment
Alex Ar [27]

The natural source of carbon dioxide that was left out is the calcareous shells of organisms. The major metabolic process that was left out is respiration.

<h3>What is carbon dioxide?</h3>

Carbon dioxide is one of the gases that cycle around in the universe. It is an integral part of the carbon cycle. The carbon cycle is a model that depicts the movement of carbon in the ecosystem.

The natural source of carbon dioxide that was left out is the calcareous shells of organisms. The major metabolic process that was left out is respiration.
