Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Work done is given by :

W = Fd, where F is force and d is displacement

Unit of work done :

The SI unit of force is Newton (N) and that of displacement is meter (m). So, the unit of work done is N-m. It is call Joule. It means that the unit of work done is Joule.

Power is given by rate at which the work is done. It is given by :

P = W/t, W is work done and t is time

Unit of power:

Unit of work is Joule (J) and that of time is second (s). It means that the unit of power is Watt and it is equal to Joule/second

Hence, the correct option is (d) "The unit for work is a joule. The unit for power is a watt, which is a joule per second".

Which of the following are important biotic factors that can affect the structure and organization of biological communities?

umka21 [38]

Answer:

c. predation, competition, parasitism

Explanation:

The important and only biotic factors from the given choices that can affect the structure and organization of biological communities are predation, competition and parasitism.

These factors ensures that there are interaction between organisms of the same and different species and only occur in life.

Biotic factors are the living component of the ecosystem that dictates what happens therein.

Predation is an interaction between two organisms in which the predator, bigger organism feeds on the prey, smaller organism.
Competition occurs where two organism of the same or different species struggles for limited resources in the ecosystem.
Parasitism is an interaction where one organism feeds on the another and it causes harm to it. The organism feeding on another is called the parasite. And the one it is dependent on is the host.

All of these are biotic factors.

31. If you threw a baseball straight out at 45 m/s from a height of 1.5 meters (A) how long would it be in the air? B) How far o

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

A) t = 0.55 s

B) x = 24.8 m

Explanation:

A) We can find the time at which the ball will be in the air using the following equation:

$y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0y}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Where:

$y_{f}$ is the final height= 0

$y_{0}$ is the initial height= 1.5 m

$v_{0y}$ is the component of the initial speed in the vertical direction = 0 m/s

t: is the time =?

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$0 = 1.5 m - \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}t^{2}$

By solving the above equation for t we have:

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2*1.5 m}{9.81 m/s^{2}}} = 0.55 s$

Hence, the ball will stay 0.55 seconds in the air.

B) We can find the distance traveled by the ball as follows:

$x_{f} = x_{0} + v_{0x}t + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

Where:

a: is the acceleration in the horizontal direction = 0

$x_{f}$ is the final position =?

$x_{0}$ is the initial position = 0

$v_{0x}$ is the component of the initial speed in the horizontal direction = 45 m/s

$x_{f} = x_{0} + v_{0x}t + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

$x_{f} = 0 + 45 m/s*0.55 s + 0 = 24.8 m$

Therefore, the ball will travel 24.8 meters.

I hope it helps you!

To get off a frozen lake, a 70 kg person removes his shoe of mass 0.175 kg and throws it horizontally away from the shore at a v

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

the person will be in the shore at 10.73 minutes after launch the shoe.

Explanation:

For this we will use the law of the lineal momentum.

$L_i = L_f$

Also,

L = MV

where M is de mass and V the velocity.

replacing,

$M_i V_i = M_{fp}V_{fp} + M_{fz}V_{fz}$

wher Mi y Vi are the initial mass and velocity, Mfp y Vfp are the final mass and velocity of the person and Mfz y Vfz are the final mass and velocity of the shoe.

so, we will take the direction where be launched the shoe as negative. then:

(70)(0) = (70-0.175)( $V_fp$ ) + (0.175)(-3.2m/s)
