Which of the following is NOT a valid reason that less energy is transferred at each level of the food chain?

Physics
1 answer:
stealth61 [152]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

I'm pretty sure the answer is B because animals at the top need a lot of energy, so to make up for loss of energy at the higher levels, those organisms at the top have to consume a lot more.

Two identical small charged spheres hang in equilibrium with equal masses (0.02kg). The length of the strings is equal (0.18m) a
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The value is q = 3.4 *10^{-6} \ C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of each sphere is m_1 = m_2  = m  =  0.020 \ kg

     The length of the string is  l = 0.18 \  m

     The angle of with the vertical is \theta  =  7^o

      The acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.8 \ m/s^2

Generally the force acting between the forces is mathematically represented as

       F  =  T cos \theta =  \frac{k*  q^2}{ r^2}

=>     T cos \theta =  \frac{k*  q^2}{ r^2}

Generally from Pythagoras theorem the radius of the circular curve created by the force is

         r = 2 L sin (\theta )

=>      r = 2* 0.180 sin (7)

=>      r = 0.043 \ m  

=>     q = tan \theta * \frac{m * g * r^2 }{k}

=>      q = tan(7)* \frac{ 0.02 * 9.8 * 0.043^2 }{9*10^{9}}

=>      q = 3.4 *10^{-6} \ C

Explain how evaporation cools a liquid​
MAVERICK [17]

When evaporation occurs liquid absorbs heat from the surroundings to get converted to its vapour form as a result, there is an overall decrease in the heat leading to cooling of the liquid.

Hope that this was helpful :)

A visitor is staying in a tent that is 11 kilometers west of the closest point on a shoreline to a coral reef. The coral reef is
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question, it says that their tent is 11 km away from the shore which is also 3 km away from the coral reef. Essentially, the tent us 11 + 3 km away from the coral reef, and that's 14 km. He has to run at a rate of 7 know to cover an 11 km length and swim at 2 kmph to cover a 3 km length.

All the visitor needs to do is run more than 7 kmph to reduce the days time. For example, running at 11 kmph takes him or her exactly 1 hour to reach the shore, before taking another swim of about an hour to reach the reef

Four velcro-lined air-hockey disks collide with each other in a perfectly
Reil [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of the final velocity is approximately 0.526 m/s in approximately the direction of 8.746° East of South

Explanation:

The given collision parameters are;

The kind of collision experienced by the four velcro-lined air-hockey disk = Inelastic collision

The mass of the first disk, m₁ = 50.0 g

The velocity of the first disk, v₁ = 0.80 m/s West = -0.8·i

The mass of the second disk, m₂ = 60.0 g

The velocity of the second disk, v₂ = 2.50 m/s North = 2.5·j

The mass of the third disk, m₃ = 100.0 g

The velocity of the third disk, v₃ = 0.20 m/s East = 0.20·i

The mass of the fourth disk, m₄ = 40.0 g

The velocity of the fourth disk, v₄ = 0.50 m/s South = -0.50·j

Therefore, the total initial momentum of the four velcro-lined air-hockey disk, \Sigma P_{initial} is given as follows;

\Sigma P_{initial} = m₁·v₁ + m₂·v₂ + m₃·v₃ + m₄·v₄ = 50.0×(-0.80·i) + 60.0×(2.50·j) + 100 × (0.20·i) + 40.0 × (-0.50·j)

∴ \Sigma P_{initial} = -40·i + 150·j + 20·i - 20·j = -20·i + 130·j

∴ \Sigma P_{initial} = -20·i + 130·j

By the law of conservation of linear momentum, we have;

\Sigma P_{initial} = \Sigma P _{final} = -20·i + 130·j

Therefore, given that the collision is perfectly inelastic, the disks move as one after the collision and the four masses are added to form one mass, "m", m = m₁ + m₂ + m₃ + m₄ = 50.0 + 60.0 + 100.0 + 40.0 = 250.0

∴ m = 250.0 g

Let, "v" represent the final velocity of the four disks moving as one after the collision

We have;

\Sigma P _{final} = m × v = 250.0 × v = -20·i + 130·j

∴ v = -20·i/250 + 130·j/250 = -0.08·i + 0.52·j

The final velocity of the four disks after collision, v = -0.08·i + 0.52·j

The magnitude of the final velocity, \left | v \right | = √((-0.08)² + (0.52)²) ≈ 0.526

\left | v \right | ≈ 0.526 m/s

The direction of the final velocity, θ = arctan(0.52/(-0.08)) ≈ -81.254°

The direction of the final velocity, θ ≈ -81.254° which is 8.746° East of South
