Important agronomic soil properties include the soil water-holding capacity, infiltration rate, aggregation, temperature, organic matter content, and nutrient availability. This publication focuses on physical characteristics of soil that influence how soil retains water and water availability for crop production. Porous loamy soils are the richest of all, laced with organic matter which retains water and provides the nutrients needed by crops. Land that has a balance of sand, clay, dirt and rock that provides a stable, well-drained environment for plants is the best for farming.

Maddie wanted to make a sugar-water solution to put in her hummingbird feeder. She found some sugar cubes and was about to drop

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

this is a good suggestion

Explanation:

when the sugar cubes are crushed and they become a powder so its surface area increases. And as surface area is directly proportional to rate of reaction so the desired solution will be formed rapidly

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac

matrenka [14]

Answer:

a) 6.1 m

b) 4.6 s

c) 1.326 m/s

d) 0.325 m

Explanation:

a) The wave length is the distance between 2 crests λ = 6.1m

b) The period of the wave is the time it takes from the lowest point to the next lowest point, which is twice the time it takes from the lowest point to the highest point = 2*2.3 = 4.6 s

c) The speed of the wave is the distance per unit of time, or wave length over period = 6.1 / 4.6 = 1.326 m/s

d)The amplitude A is half the distance from the highest point to the lowest point = 0.65 / 2 = 0.325 m

A 5 kg box drops a distance of 10 m to the ground. If 70% of the initial potential energy goes into increasing the internal ener

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The initial PE $(PE)_i$ = m×g×h

= 5 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 10 m

= 490.5 J

The change in Potential energy P.E of the box is:

ΔP.E = $P.E_f -P.E_i$

ΔP.E = 0 - $(PE)_i$

ΔP.E = $-P.E_i$

If we take a look at conservation of total energy for determining the change in the internal energy of the box;

$\Delta P.E + \Delta K.E + \Delta U = 0$

$\Delta U = -\Delta P.E - \Delta K.E$

this can be re-written as:

$\Delta U =- (-\Delta P.E_i) - \Delta K.E$

Here, K.E = 0

Also, 70% goes into raising the internal energy for the box;

Thus,

$\Delta U =(70\%) \Delta P.E_i-0$

$\Delta U =(0.70) (490.5)$

ΔU = 343.35 J

Thus, the magnitude of the increase is = 343.35 J

The energy stored in oil come from the sun. Describe how energy from the sun became stored in oil

nirvana33 [79]

Crude oil has parts of decomposed dinosaurs and plants from millions of years ago. When the sun gave energy to the plants for their growth, the dinasours ate them which is now is stored in the oil today. So the sun gave energy to plants, dinosaurs ate them, pasted away and decomposed, then we drill and use it as oil.

One mole of an ideal gas does 3000 J of work on its surroundings as it expands isothermally to a final pressure of 1.00 atm and

taurus [48]

Answer:

(a) Initial volume will be 7.62 L

(b) Final temperature will be 303.85 K

Explanation:

We have given one mole of ideal gas done 3000 J

So work done W = 3000 J

Let initial volume is $V_1$ and initial pressure $P_1=1atm$ ( As pressure is constant )
