The scientific law of one organism feeding off to other where energy is transferred from one form to another is known as the law of conservation of energy.

Explanation-

Energy from the the highest energy source that is sun is absorbed by plants to convert it into food (i.e a form of energy). plants are the only ones that can convert sunlight into another form of energy directly.

The animals and organisms that feed off of the plants take some part of this energy for their life cycles and then the animals that feed off of these animals again take some part of this energy and carry on with their life cycle, this is how energy from sun (highest source) is transferred to different organisms by Just changing form.

Answer:

Law of conservation of energy

Explanation:

As per the law of conservation of energy 'Energy in a system can neither created nor destroyed but it can be transformed from its one form to another'. In the given question, energy is coming from the sun which is primary and biggest source of energy. So energy of get transformed by the process of photosynthesis to the food of trees in the ecosystem. Then from primary food chain to successive food chains in the ecosystem by ten percent rule( only 10% energy  passes from one level to another in the food chain).

Two forces F1 and F2 act on a 5.00 kg object. Taking F1=20.0N and F2=15.00N, find the acceleration of the object for the configu
Anit [1.1K]
A) mass m with F1 acting in the positive x direction and F2 acting perpendicular in the positive y direction<span>

m = 5.00 kg
F1=20.0N  ... x direction
F2=15.00N</span><span>  ... y direction

Net force ^2 = F1^2 + F2^2 = (20N)^2 + (15n)^2 =  625N^2 =>

Net force = √625 = 25N

F = m*a => a = F/m = 25.0 N /5.00 kg = 5 m/s^2

Answer: 5.00 m/s^2

b) mass m with F1 acting in the positive x direction and F2 acting on the object at 60 degrees above the horizontal. </span>

<span>m = 5.00 kg
F1=20.0N  ... x direction
F2=15.00N</span><span>  ... 60 degress above x direction

Components of F2

F2,x = F2*cos(60) = 15N / 2 = 7.5N

F2, y = F2*sin(60) = 15N* 0.866 = 12.99 N ≈ 13 N


Total force in x = F1 + F2,x = 20.0 N + 7.5 N = 27.5 N

Total force in y = F2,y = 13.0 N

Net force^2 = (27.5N)^2 + (13.0N)^2 = 925.25 N^2 = Net force = √(925.25N^2) =

= 30.42N

a = F /m = 30.42 N / 5.00 kg = 6.08 m/s^2

Answer: 6.08 m/s^2

A wheel rotates without friction about a stationary horizontal axis at the center of the wheel. A constant tangential force equa
love history [14]

Answer:

I = 16 kg*m²

Explanation:

Newton's second law for rotation

τ = I * α   Formula  (1)

where:

τ : It is the moment applied to the body.  (Nxm)

I :  it is the moment of inertia of the body with respect to the axis of rotation (kg*m²)

α : It is angular acceleration. (rad/s²)

Kinematics of the wheel

Equation of circular motion uniformly accelerated :  

ωf = ω₀+ α*t  Formula (2)

Where:  

α : Angular acceleration (rad/s²)  

ω₀ : Initial angular speed ( rad/s)  

ωf : Final angular speed ( rad

t : time interval (rad)

Data  

ω₀ = 0

ωf = 1.2 rad/s

t = 2 s

Angular acceleration of the wheel  

We replace data in the formula (2):  

ωf = ω₀+ α*t

1.2= 0+ α*(2)

α*(2) = 1.2

α = 1.2 / 2

α = 0.6 rad/s²

Magnitude of the net torque (τ )

τ = F *R

Where:

F  = tangential force (N)

R  = radio (m)

τ = 80 N *0.12 m

τ = 9.6 N *m

Rotational inertia of the wheel

We replace data in the formula (1):

τ = I * α

9.6 = I *(0.6 )

I = 9.6 / (0.6 )

I = 16 kg*m²
