Nitrogen fixing bacteria changes dead plants and animals into ammonia compounds.

<h2>What is nitrogen fixation?</h2>

Atmospheric nitrogen is converted into nitrogen oxides by the action of lightning, which helps its incorporation into the soil.

<h3>Characteristics of Nitrogen fixing bacteria</h3>

Nitrogen is fixed by these bacteria and other prokaryotes through various metabolic processes, which convert it into different usable compounds, such as ammonia (NH3) and ammonium ion (NH4+).

These microorganisms can be found in soil and water, or as plant symbionts.

Therefore, we can conclude that nitrogen fixing bacteria fix nitrogen from the air, that is, they originate soluble compounds by plants, such as ammonia.

A force of 6N is exerted on a cart that is carrying a rock and produces an acceleration of 2 m/s2. If the cart has a mass of 1 k

vaieri [72.5K]

If you use the equation F=ma and re-arrange it to get m = F/a, you'll get the total mass. Then you have to subtract the mass of the cart from the total mass to get the mass of the rock.

Thus, m = 6N over 2m/s^2. The total mass will then be 3kg. Subtracting 1kg from the total mass will then yield you 2kg, which is the mass of the rock. Hope this helps.

A crate pushed along the floor with velocity vâ i slides a distance d after the pushing force is removed. if the mass of the cra

Alenkinab [10]

<span>d The mass is doubled which means that both the momentum and kinetic energy are also doubled. Also the normal force that's acting along with the coefficient of kinetic friction is also doubled. So the friction that's working to slow down the crate is doubled. So the crate will have double the kinetic energy that needs to be dissipated, but the rate of dissipation is also doubled, so the total time required to dissipate the kinetic energy is the same. And since both crates start out with the same velocity and since they'll lose energy (and velocity) at the same proportional rate, they'll take the same distance to slide to a stop.</span>

velikii [3]

This problem must be solved using a sketch. I attached an illustration of the problem.
You must trace the ray that reflects from the top off the table to your eyes. This how eyesight works, light rays reflects off the objects into your eyes.
Law of reflection tells us that light ray reflects off the surface at the same angle in which it falls on it( i attached another illustration of this).
Now we can write tangens equations:
$tan(\theta)=\frac{h-0.8}{1}\\
tan(\theta)=\frac{1.8-h}{2.8}\\
\frac{h-0.8}{1}=\frac{1.8-h}{2.8}$
We solve for h:
$\frac{h-0.8}{1}=\frac{1.8-h}{2.8}\\
2.8h-0.8\cdot 2.8=1.8-h\\
3.8h=1.8+2.24\\
h=\frac{4.04}{3.8}\\
h=1.06m$
