The highest trophic level has the least available energy in kilojoules.

Even though the food web is not shown in the question, but we know that energy decreases steadily as it is passed on from one trophic level to the next according to the second law of thermodynamics.

Energy enters into the system from the sun. The primary producers utilize this energy to produce food. As plants are eaten by animals, this energy is transferred along the food web an diminishes at each higher trophic level.

At the highest trophic level, the the least available energy in kilojoules in this food web is found.

Which electromagnetic wave would have a wavelength approximately the size of the tip of a pencil?

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

That's simply because any electromagnetic wave longer than a microwave is called a radio wave. Microwaves: Obviously used for cooking in microwave ovens, but also for transmitting information in radar equipment. Microwaves are like short-wavelength radio waves. Typical size: 15cm (the length of a pencil).

Calculate the average linear momentum of a particle described by the following wavefunctions: (a) eikx, (b) cos kx, (c) e−ax2 ,

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

a) p=0, b) p=0, c) p= ∞

Explanation:

In quantum mechanics the moment operator is given by

p = - i h’ d φ / dx

h’= h / 2π

We apply this equation to the given wave functions

a) φ = $e^{ikx}$

.d φ dx = i k $e^{ikx}$

We replace

p = h’ k $e^{ikx}$

i i = -1

The exponential is a sine and cosine function, so its measured value is zero, so the average moment is zero

p = 0

b) φ = cos kx

p = h’ k sen kx

The average sine function is zero,

p = 0

c) φ = $e^{-ax^{2} }$

d φ / dx = -a 2x $e^{-ax^{2} }$

.p = i a g ’2x $e^{-ax^{2} }$

The average moment is

p = (p₂ + p₁) / 2

p = i a h ’(-∞ + ∞)

p = ∞
