Ecosystems that have a high primary productivity can convert solar energy to biomass rapidly. (3 points)
False
True
Answer:
1. Photosynthesis releases oxygen gas as a product.
2. Subtracting cellular respiration from gross primary productivity
3. True
Explanation:
1. Photosynthesis is the process by which autotrophic organisms synthesize their food in form of sugars in the presence of sunlight. Photosynthetic process combines carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) to form glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen gas as products. The equation is as follows:
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
2. Net primary productivity, denoted by NPP, refers to the amount of biomass present in an ecosystem. It can be calculated by subtracting the amount of CO2 lost via cellular respiration from the amount produced called Gross primary productivity (GPP). That is;
NPP = GPP - cellular respiration
3. The process by which organic matter is synthesized from inorganic ones by organisms called AUTOTROPHS or PRIMARY PRODUCERS is called PRIMARY PRODUCTIVITY. Examples of autotrophic organisms are green plants, algae etc. Hence, in an ecosystem that have a high primary productivity, there would be a rapid rate of conversion of solar energy to biomass via PHOTOSYNTHESIS.
A person pushes a 10 kg box from rest and accelerates it to a speed of 4 m/s with a constant force. If the box is pushed for a time of 2.5 s, what is the force exerted by the person?
The box is accelerated from rest to 4 m/s in a matter of 2.5 s, so its acceleration a is such that
4 m/s = a (2.5 s) → a = (4 m/s) / (2.5 s) = 1.6 m/s²
Then the force applied to the box has a magnitude F such that
F = (10 kg) (1.6 m/s²) = 16 N

Consider a corn yield of 7,500 kg/hectare (equivalent to 120 bushels per acre). If 25 kg (one bushel) of corn consumed about 20m3 of water during the growing season, what is the ratio of the weight of corn to the weight of water consumed
Answer:
[tex]\frac{W_{1}}{W_{2}} = 0.5[/tex]
Explanation:
The ratio of the weight of corn to the weight of water consumed will be the same. Either we compare the total weights for the total amount of corn or we compare only a small proportion of it. So, we consider the given 25 kg of corn. So, the mass of corn is given:
m₁ = mass of corn = 25 kg
Now, for mass of water, we will use its density:
ρ₂ = m₂/V₂
m₂ = ρ₂V₂
where,
m₂ = mass of water = ?
V₂ = Volume of water consumed by 25 kg corn = 20 m³
ρ₂ = density of water = 1000 kg/m³
Therefore,
m₂ = (1000 kg/m³)/(20 m³)
m₂ = 50 kg
Now, we calculate the ration:
[tex]\frac{Weight of Corn}{Weight of Water} = \frac{W_{1}}{W_{2}} = \frac{m_{1}g}{m_{2}g}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{W_{1}}{W_{2}}=\frac{m_{1}}{m_{2}} = \frac{25 kg}{50 kg}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{W_{1}}{W_{2}} = 0.5[/tex]

What Initial Velocity would you have to give the Marble to make it hit the ground in 5 s
Answer:
Traveling 381m in 5 seconds means the average velocity is: 381m/5s = 76.2 m/s.
Explanation:
Letting x be the initial velocity and v the final velocity, we have:
12(x+v)=76.2m/s
and (since v=x+50),
12(2x+50)=76.2m/s
x+25=76.2m/s
x=51.2m/s
Answer:
-49 m/s
Explanation:
You would use the formula vf = vi + at, where vf stands for final velocity, vi stands for initial velocity, a stands for acceleration, and t stands for time. Assuming you're dropping the marble on Earth, the acceleration would be -9.8m/s², and the final velocity would be 0 m/s, as it stops after hitting the ground. (0 = vi + (9.8)(5))

A 25-g string is stretched with a tension of 43 N between two fixed points 12 m apart. What is the frequency of the second harmonic?
Answer:
The frequency of the second harmonic ([tex]2f_o[/tex]) is 11.97 Hz.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the string, m = 25 g = 0.025kg
tension on the string, T = 43 N
length of the string, L = 12 m
The speed of wave on the string is given as;
[tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }[/tex]
where;
μ is mass per unit length = 0.025 / 12 = 0.002083 kg/m
[tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{43}{0.002083} }\\\\v = 143.678 \ m/s[/tex]
The wavelength of the first harmonic wave is given as;
[tex]L = \frac{1}{2} \lambda _o\\\\\lambda _o = 2L \\\\\lambda _o = 2 \ \times \ 12\\\\\lambda _o = 24 \ m[/tex]
The frequency of the first harmonic is given as;
[tex]f_o = \frac{v}{\lambda _o} = \frac{v}{2L} = \frac{143.678}{24} = 5.99 \ Hz\\\\[/tex]
The wavelength of the second harmonic wave is given as;
[tex]L = \lambda_1 \\\\\lambda_1 = 12 \ m[/tex]
The frequency of the second harmonic is given as;
[tex]f_1 = \frac{v}{\lambda _1} = \frac{143.678}{12} = 11.97 \ Hz = 2(\frac{v}{\lambda _0}) = 2f_o[/tex]
Therefore, the frequency of the second harmonic ([tex]2f_o[/tex]) is 11.97 Hz.

To initiate a nuclear reaction, an experimental nuclear physicist wants to shoot a proton into a 5.50-fm-diameter 12C nucleus. The proton must impact the nucleus with a kinetic energy of 2.30 MeV. Assume the nucleus remains at rest. With what speed must the proton be fired toward the target?
Answer:
The value is [tex]u = 3.23 *10^{7} \ m/s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The diameter of the nucleus is [tex]d = 5.50 \ fm = 5.50 *10^{-15} \ c[/tex]
The charge of the proton that makes up the nucleus is [tex]Q_2 = \frac{12}{2} * 1.60 *10^{-19} =9.6*10^{-19} \ C[/tex]
The energy to be impacted is [tex]KE_f = 2.30 \ MeV = 2.30 *10^{6} \ eV = 2.30 *10^{6} * 1.60 *10^{-19} = 3.68*10^{-13} \ J[/tex]
Generally the radius of the nucleus is mathematically represented as
[tex]r = \frac{d}{2}[/tex]
=> [tex]r = \frac{5.50 *10^{-15}}{2}[/tex]
=> [tex]r = 2.75 *10^{-15} \ m[/tex]
Generally from the law energy conservation we have that
[tex]Initial \ total \ energy \ of the \ proton = final \ total \ energy \ of the \ proton[/tex]
i.e
[tex]T_i = T_f[/tex]
Here
[tex]T_i = KE_i + PE_i[/tex]
Here [tex]KE_i[/tex] is the initial kinetic energy which is mathematically represented as
[tex]KE_I = \frac{1}{2} * m * u ^2[/tex]
Here [tex]PE_i[/tex] is the initial potential energy of the proton and the value is 0 J given that the proton is moving
Also [tex]T_f[/tex] is mathematically represented as
[tex]T_f = KE_f + PE_f[/tex]
Here
[tex]PE_f[/tex] is the final potential energy which is mathematically represented as
[tex]PE_f = \frac{k * Q_1 * Q_2}{r}[/tex]
Here [tex]Q_1[/tex] is the charge on the proton with a value of [tex]Q_1 = 1.60 *10^{-19} \ C[/tex]
So
[tex]PE_f = \frac{9*10^{9} *(1.60 *10^{-19} ) * ( 9.6 *10^{-19})}{ 2.75 *10^{-15}}[/tex]
=> [tex]PE_f = 5.027 *10^{-13 } \ J[/tex]
So
[tex]KE_i + PE_i = KE_f + PE_f[/tex]
=> [tex]\frac{1}{2} * m * u ^2 +0 = 3.68*10^{-13} + 5.027 *10^{-13 }[/tex]
Here m is the mass of the moving proton with value [tex]m = 1.67*10^{-27} \ kg[/tex]
So
[tex]\frac{1}{2} * 1.67*10^{-27} * u ^2 +0 = 3.68*10^{-13} + 5.027 *10^{-13 }[/tex]
=> [tex]u = \sqrt{\frac{3.68*10^{-13} + 5.027 *10^{-13 }}{0.5 * 1.67*10^{-27}} }[/tex]
=> [tex]u = 3.23 *10^{7} \ m/s[/tex]

The highest surface temperature on any of the solar system’s planets is found on Venus. Partly because of its nearness to the sun and partly because of the extreme pressure of its atmosphere, the average daytime temperature on Venus is 453°C. What is this temperature in degrees Fahrenheit and in kelvins?
Answer:
Fahrenheit ⇒ 847.4 °FKelvin ⇒ 726.15KExplanation:
To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, use the following formula;
= (°C * 9/5) + 32
= (453 * 9/5) + 32
= 847.4 °F
To convert Celsius to Kelvin, use the following;
= °C + 273.15
= 453 + 273.15
= 726.15K

How is the volume flow rate of water out of the tank, dVdt, related to the flow speed v ? Express your answer in terms of some, all, or none of the variables v , d, the acceleration due to gravity g, and the constant π.
Answer:
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}= \frac{\pi d^2}{4}v[/tex]
Explanation:
The rate of volume flow out of tank can be expressed as:
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = A\frac{dL}{dt}[/tex]
where,
dV/dt = Volume flow rate
A = Cross-sectional area of outlet = πd²/4
d = diameter of circular outlet
dL = Displacement covered by water
dt = time taken
but we know that:
Velocity = υ = displacement/time = dL/dt
Substituting the values of "dL/dt" and "A" in the equation, we get:
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}v[/tex]
This is the expression for volume flow rate dV/dt, on terms pf v, d.
a ball is thrown with a speed of 17.7 m/s at an angle of 49.8° above the horizontal. how much time does the ball need to reach a height of 4.7 m above the release point ?
Answer:
The ball needs approximately [tex]0.41\; \rm s[/tex] to reach that height for the first time.
Explanation:
The initial speed of the ball [tex]17.7\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}[/tex]. However, what would be the initial vertical speed of this ball?
The angle of elevation is [tex]\theta = 49.8^\circ[/tex]. Consider the initial speed of this ball as the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle. If the angle of elevation is one of the two acute angles of this triangle, the initial vertical speed of this ball would be the leg opposite to that angle.
[tex]\displaystyle \sin \theta = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}[/tex].
[tex]\displaystyle \sin \theta = \frac{v(\text{vertical, initial})}{v(\text{initial})}[/tex].
Therefore:
[tex]\begin{aligned}&v(\text{vertical, initial})\\ &= v(\text{initial}) \cdot \sin\theta \\ &= 17.7\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1} \times \sin \left(49.8^\circ\right) \approx 13.5\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}\end{aligned}[/tex].
Let [tex]t[/tex] denote the time (in seconds) required for the ball to reach a height of [tex]4.7\; \rm m[/tex].
Let [tex]g[/tex] denote the acceleration because of gravity (typically [tex]g \approx 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}[/tex] near the surface of the earth.) The height of the ball [tex]t[/tex] seconds after it was thrown would be: [tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\, g \cdot t^{2} + v(\text{vertical, initial}) \cdot t[/tex].
Assume that [tex]g \approx 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}[/tex]. Set the value of this expression for height to [tex]4.7\; \rm m[/tex] and solve for [tex]t[/tex]:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{2} \times 9.81 \, t^{2} + 13.5 \, t = 4.7[/tex].
Either [tex]t \approx 0.41[/tex] or [tex]t \approx 2.3[/tex] will satisfy this equation. Both of these two values are reasonable. The first value for [tex]t[/tex] ([tex]0.41\; \rm s[/tex]) is the time required for the ball to reach a height of [tex]4.7\; \rm m[/tex] for the first time. The second value ([tex]2.3\; \rm s[/tex]) is the time required for the ball to come under that height on its way back to the ground. The question seems to be asking only for the first (the smaller one) of these two times.
Two out-of-tune flutes play the same note. One produces a tone that has a frequency of 248 Hz, while the other produces 288 Hz. When a tuning fork is sounded together with the 248-Hz tone, a beat frequency of 20.0 Hz is produced. When the same tuning fork is sounded together with the 288-Hz tone, a beat frequency of 20.0 Hz is produced. What is the frequency of the tuning fork
Answer:
F = 268 Hz
Explanation:
The beat frequency is given as:
[tex]Beat Frequency = |Frequency 1 - Frequency 2|\\[/tex]|
So, for the first flute and tuning fork:
[tex]20 Hz = |248 Hz - F|[/tex]
where,
F = Frequency of tuning fork
F = 248 Hz ± 20 Hz
F = 268 Hz (OR) 228 Hz
Now, for the second flute and tuning fork:
[tex]20 Hz = |288 Hz - F|[/tex]
where,
F = Frequency of tuning fork
F = 288 Hz ± 20 Hz
F = 268 Hz (OR) 308 Hz
Since, 268 Hz is common from both calculations. Therefore, it will be the frequency of the tuning fork.
F = 268 Hz

D. Rincreases.
Vis constant

Answer:
D.
R increases
V is constant
I decreases
Explanation:
The resistance of a wire is given by the following formula:
[tex]R = \frac{(Resistivity)(L)}{A}[/tex]
It is clear from this formula that resistance is directly proportional to the length of wire. So, when length of wire is increased, the resistance of circuit increases.
The voltage in the circuit will be constant as the voltage source remains same and it is not changed.
Now, we can use Ohm Law:
V = IR
at constant V:
I ∝ 1/R
it means that current is inversely proportional to resistance. Hence, the increase of resistance causes the current in circuit to decrease.
Therefore, the correct option will be:
D.
R increases
V is constant
I decreases
I would like to know why this is the correct answer

[tex]\tt a=\dfrac{\sum F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{0.2}{1.5}\\\\a=0.13~m/s^2[/tex]
Answer:
A spring scale shows a net force of 0.8 N acting on a 1.5-kg mass. What happens to the acceleration of the object if the net force is decreased to 0.2 N? A, The acceleration decreases to a quarter of its original value, or about 0.13 m/s².
Is it possible for the velocity of an object to be zero and its acceleration not zero?
Explanation:
Yes, it is possible to have zero speed while accelerating, but only for a moment. ... acceleration is the rate at which the speed and direction of an object changes over time, so whenever an object goes through zero speed while reversing directions, it has non-acceleration. zero but a speed of zero.

Answer:
A. Force of friction
Explanation:
Find the diagram attached
From the diagram we can see that the force B is acting up on the body along the plane. This force is the force that prevents the body from sliding down the plane. Originally, the body on the line will tend to slide down the incline even without application of a force hence the reason of an opposing force that must act in the opposite direction is counter this motion to make the body be in a state of equilibrium. Hence the required force is force of friction since it is am opposing force acting in the direction opposite to the moving force acting on the body.

An object is placed on the moveable piston of a cylinder filled with a gas. The object exerts a downward force F on the piston that accelerates the piston downward, compressing the gas. Which of the following is a correct description of the magnitude of the upward force exerted by the piston on the object?
a. The force exerted by the piston on the object is equal to FF.
b. The force exerted by the piston on the object is less than FF because the piston is accelerating downward.
c. The force exerted by the piston on the object is greater than F because the gas exerts an upward force on the piston.
d. The force exerted by the piston cannot be compared to FF without knowing the magnitude of the acceleration of the piston and pressure of the gas.
Answer:
b. The force exerted by the piston on the object is less than F because the piston is accelerating downward.
Explanation:
Given that object exerts a downward force F on the piston that accelerates the piston downward.
An object can accelerate if the net force acting on it is non-zero.
Here, the piston is acceleration in the downward direction, so the net for on the piston is in the downward direction.
Force due to object, F, is in the downward direction while the force exerted by the piston on the object is in the upward direction.
As the acceleration of the piston is in the downward direction, so the downward force is more.
Therefore, the force exerted by the piston on the object is less than F because the piston is accelerating downward.
Hence, option (b) is correct.

how are a symbol and a model both examples of a representation?
Answer:
A symbol and a model are both examples of a representation because they are presented in place of the real thing.
Explanation:
A symbol is a sign, a letter, mark, token, figure, or image used to stand in place of an object, function, or process. For example, co2 is used in Chemistry to represent carbon dioxide. There are many symbols representing other objects or meanings. Mathematically, we can state that "a" equals 40. "a" is a symbol representing the numerical value "40." Similarly, a model is a representation of a structure or a person on a smaller scale. For example, Architects produce models of buildings and other projects that they design.
Representation is a defined description or portrayal of any object, person, or anything.
The symbols and models are examples of representation.
Symbols are used as a representation in the form of signs, marks, or images to portray the object or anything. For instance, the symbols such as Ag and Au are used to represent Silver and Gold, respectively.
A model is also a structural or diagrammatical representation of a large object or structure. For example, architects build up maps and charts for the design of the building.
Thus, the symbols and models are used as representations for several things, items, structures, and many more.
