the energy lost between trophic levels why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy decreases as it moves up trophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level. Trophic level transfer efficiency (TLTE) measures the amount of energy that is transferred between trophic levels

A student lifts a school bag from the ground and puts it on his shoulders 1.5m above the ground. A force of 5N is acting on an object. Calculate the work done by him on the school bag.

Answers

Answer:

w = 7.5 [J]

Explanation:

We must remember the definition of mechanical work, which tells us that work is equal to the product of force by distance. This force must be applied in the direction of movement. So we have the following equation:

w = F*d

where:

w = work [J]

F = force [N]

d = distance [m]

Now replacing we have:

w = 5*1.5

w = 7.5 [J]

A baseball is thrown vertically downward from the top of a 155 m tower with an initial velocity of -25 m/s. How long will it take, until it reaches the ground?

Answers

Answer:

t = 2.55 s

Explanation:

Given that,

Height from which the baseball is thrown, h = 155 m

Initial velocity of the baseball, u = -25 m/s

We need to find the time taken by it to reach the ground. Let the time is t. Using equation of kinematics to find it as follows:

[tex]v=u+at\\\\t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\dfrac{0-(-25)}{9.8}\\\\t=2.55\ s[/tex]

So, it will take 2.55 seconds to reach the ground.

Two curves on a highway have the same radii. However, one is unbanked and the other is banked at an angle θ. A car can safely travel along the unbanked curve at a maximum speed v0 under conditions when the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is 0.563. The banked curve is frictionless, and the car can negotiate it at the same speed v0. Find the angle θ of the banked curve.

Answers

Answer:

θ = 29.38°

Explanation:

The centripetal force is given by the formula;

F_c = F_n(sin θ) = mv²/r

Now, the vertical component of the normal force is; F_n(cos θ)

Now, this vertical component is also expressed as; F_n(cos θ) = mg

Thus, the slope is;

F_n(sin θ)/F_n(cos θ) = (mv²/r)/mg

tan θ = v²/rg

v² = rg(tan θ)

The initial speed will be gotten from the relation;

(v_o)² = μ_s(gr)

Plugging rg(tan θ) for (v_o)², we have;

μ_s(gr) = rg(tan θ)

rg will cancel out to give;

μ_s = (tan θ)

Thus, θ = tan^(-1) μ_s

μ_s is coefficient of static friction given as 0.563

θ = tan^(-1) 0.563

θ = 29.38°

Both objects are speeding up at a constant rate.

One object speeds up before it slows to a stop.

Both objects speed up before stopping.

One object speeds up at a constant rate until it stops.

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

One object speeds up before it slows to a stop.

When reading this type of graph, we know that when the points are far apart, then the object is definitely moving quickly. Also again, we know that when the points are besides each other, then we say that the object is moving slow. When the distance that is between the points are changed, the velocity of the object subsequently changes too, and therefore, we say that the object is accelerated. When there are lots of points in one location, we will see that the object is not moving.

This then translates into that

The object(s) at the top begins to slow, eventually, it increases in its speed, going forward, it slows down again, before it finally halts. The object at the bottom on the other hand, starts fast, before slowing down.

then:

"One object speeds up before it slows to a stop "

(b) The rock takes about the same time to hit the water

(c) The rock hits the water below with the highest speed

(d) The rock hits the water with the same speed in each|
case
Student Answer(s):
Student Reasoning:

Answers

Answer:

The true statement is;

(b) The rock takes about the same time to hit the water in each case

Explanation:

The given information are;

The direction in which the rock is kicked = Horizontally

The number of different initial horizontal with which the rock as kicked =  different horizontal velocity

The time taken for the rock to hit the water is given by the following equation for projectile motion;

y = y₀ + v₀× sin(θ₀)×t - 1/2×g×t²

Where;

θ = The angle the rock makes with the horizontal when it was kicked = 0

y = The height through which the rock drops

y₀ = The initial height of the rock

t = The time taken for the ball to hit the water

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

For the different speeds, v₁, v₂, and v₃, we have;

y = y₀ + v₁× sin(0)×t - 1/2×g×t² = y₀ - 1/2×g×t²

y = y₀ + v₂× sin(0)×t - 1/2×g×t² = y₀ - 1/2×g×t²

y = y₀ + v₃× sin(0)×t - 1/2×g×t² = y₀ - 1/2×g×t²

Therefore, the time it takes for the ball to hit the water is given as follows;

[tex]t = \sqrt{\dfrac{(y_0 - y) \times 2}{g} }[/tex]

Which is the same for each case

However, the speed, v, with which the rock hits the water is given by the following equation;

[tex]v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}[/tex]

[tex]v_y[/tex] = The vertical velocity = v₀ × sin(θ₀) - g×t = v₀ × sin(0) - g×t = -g×t

[tex]v_y[/tex] = -g×t

Therefore, [tex]v_y[/tex], is the same for all three times

While vₓ = v₁, v₂, and v₃, for each of the three times.

Therefore, [tex]v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}[/tex]  the speed with which the rock hits the water is different for all three times.

What is the net force on the skater?

Answers

Answer:

The net force on the skater is zero. ([tex]F_{net} = 0\,N[/tex])

Explanation:

According to Newton's First Law, an object is at equilibrium when either it is at rest or moves at constant velocity, which means a net force of zero. Based on the given statement, there are no external forces acting on skate and, therefore, the net force on the skater is zero. ([tex]F_{net} = 0\,N[/tex])

Again, they measure how far the ball goes using the same meter stick. What is the Independent Variable?

Answer:

Explanation:

When establishing a relationship between two variables the effect one variable has on the other is studied. The variable that changes with respect to the other is the dependent variable while the other variable is called the independent variable.

Here the distance the football covers in the presence and absence of wind is studied. So, the presence or absence of wind is the independent variable.

Net force is essentially the sum of the forces enacting upon an object. One example of net force is gravity and normal force. It is commonly accepted that every object has a force acting upon it, even if it is stationary. To give an example, the weight of an object has a force upon the earth but the earth pushes back, essentially meaning that the object will not sink.
