When a volcano erupts, it emits volcanic ash into the sky. Based on this information and your knowledge of photosynthesis, answe

r each question below.
1. What effect would a volcanic eruption have on the sky and sun?
2. How would this affect plants’ ability to carry out photosynthesis?
3. What could be done to increase photosynthesis in a situation like this?
4. What other events might prevent sunlight from reaching Earth? How might this affect all life on Earth?

Answer 1. Since all the volcanic ash blocks out the sun's rays and is composed of many toxic chemicals including heavy amounts of anti-oxygen chemicals it will make the atmosphere around the volcano full of chemicals that make it hard for life to exist.

Answer 2. Photosynthesis is the process of converting water, Co^2, and sunlight into glucose and oxygen. Sunlight will be blocked out making it difficult for the plants to photosynthesize. Nearby waters will be contaminated too because of all the ash. The amount of C0^2 will be too overwhelming for most plants thereby killing many of them.

Answer 3. People can bring plants indoors and see that the plants are treated with care and properly. An alternative is to grow newer plants or gardens locally if possible. This will be ill-advised if you see lava coming straight towards your town.

Answer 4. Other events that can block out the sun are storms. If powerful enough they can block out the sun. Since the sun is our prime source of energy, we would seriously take a major hit population wise. Some plants might live if we use flashlights or other light alternatives. Animal's will die off and people eventually. Ends pretty bad and more complex.

A car with a mass of 1.1 × 103 kilograms hits a stationary truck with a mass of 2.3 × 103 kilograms from the rear end. The initi
d1i1m1o1n [39]
The answer is C : 15.7 m/s
Use the idea of : momentum before collision = momentum after collision

Before collision;
For car:mass=1.1×10^3, velocity=22
For truck:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=0
After collision;
For car:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=-11
For truck:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=V
(1.1×10^3 × 22) + (2.3×10^3 × 0) = (1.1×10^3 × -11) + (2.3×10^3 × V)
24200 = -12100 + 2.3×10^3V
2.3×10^3V = 36300
V = 15.7 m/s

Aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/cm3. what would be the mass of a sample whose volume is 10.0 cm3?
anastassius [24]
Hey there!

Density = 2.70 g/cm³

Volume = 10.0 cm³

Therefore:

Mass = density *  volume

Mass = 2.70 * 10.0

Mass = 27.0 g

what conclusions can be made about the relationship between metallic character and the atomic radius?
kolezko [41]

We have to get the relationship between metallic character and atomic radius.

Metallic character increases with increase in atomic radius and decrease with decrease of atomic radius.

If electrons from outermost shell of an element can be removed easily, that atom can be considered to have more metallic character.

With increase in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electron decreases which facilitates the release of electron.

With decrease in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electrons increases, so electrons are hold tightly to nucleus. Hence, removal of electron from outermost shell becomes difficult making the atom less metallic in nature.
