Answer:

Explanation:

Ecological succession is a process of inhabiting a zoological area by a group of organisms. it involves many stages to reach the climax stage such as primary, secondary, tertiary names basing on the habitat where it occurs. once the organisms reach the most stable stage of the succession. thus it maintains equilibrium Succession helps restore the equilibrium of an ecosystem by forming up new species, diversifying species, and basically by replacing the damaged, deranged, or disturbed community. For instance, when a sudden climate change occurred in a community, such as drought, dryness, fire, or heat waves, all living things that depends on water or survives in a cool, wet environment will die or migrate somewhere else. Thus, leaving that community vacant and/or unoccupied by any living things. Succession, then, will take place in that area by going through various stages until reaching the climax stage, in which the ecosystem is complete again.

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

It converts light into electric current.

Explanation:

The first line of the description says that the photometer is a device that converts light to voltage. if the voltage can be measured then current flowing through it can be calculated by Ohms law V=IR.

<em>Hence the photometer converts light to electric current.</em>

The photometer is used to measure the strength of electromagnetic radiation falling on it and operate within the range of ultraviolet ,visible and infrared spectrum.

It converts light to electric current using photodiode (pn junction),photoresistor and photmultiplier.

What are two ways alternating currents are similiar?

Anettt [7]

AC stands for alternating current (current flows in both directions) and DC stands for direct current (current flows in one direction).

I would say 2. and 3. are correct because 1. states that current flows in both directions for AC and DC, and we just said that was false, and 4. says that they have the same flow patter, which is basically what we said was false about 1.

A horse accelerating a sled to the right. Diagram all forces acting on the sled.

Blizzard [7]

There is gravity, normal force, and friction. The force of gravity pulls objects towards the center of the earth. The normal force is the surface that exerts On a object. Friction force always acts against the direction of motion.
Hope this helps!

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Complete question is;

In a women’s 100-m race, accelerating uniformly, Laura takes 2.00 s and Healan 3.00 s to attain their maximum speeds, which they each maintain for the rest of the race. They cross the finish line simultaneously, both setting a world record of 10.4 s.

(a) What is the acceleration of each sprinter?

(b) What are their respective maximum speeds?

(d) What is the maximum distance by which Healan is behind Laura, and at what time does that occur?

Answer:

A) a_laura = 5.319 m/s² and a_healan = 3.745m/s²

B) V_max for laura = 10.638 m/s and V_max for Healan = 11.235 m/s

C) Laura is ahead of healan by 2.632 m

D) Healan is 4.471 m behind Laura

Explanation:

A) The distance traveled by each sprinter with constant acceleration would be gotten from the equation of motion which is;

s = ut + ½at²

Now, since they began at rest, thus, initial velocity(u) = 0 m/s

So, s = 0 + ½at²

s = ½at²

Now, maximum speed achieved by each of them is given by the formula;

v_max = u + at

Since u = 0, then;

v_max = at

Now, we are told that they set a world record of 10.4 s, thus;

Time taken by each to run at their maximum speed = (10.4 - t)

Distance travelled after attaining maximum speed = at + a(10.4 - t)

Thus;

Total distance covered by each sprinter = ½at² + (at)(10.4 - t)

Where;

t = time taken to accelerate to maximum speed

Since total distance covered is 100 m and she took 2 s to accelerate to max speed, then Acceleration for Laura would be calculated from;

100 = ½a(2)² + (2a(10.4 - 2))

This gives;

100 = 2a + 16.8a

18.8a = 100

a = 100/18.8

a_laura = 5.319 m/s²

Similarly, for Healan:

100 = ½a(3²) + (3a(10.4 - 3)

100 = 4.5 a + 22.2a

26.7a = 100

a = 100/26.7

a_healan = 3.745m/s²

B) From earlier we saw that max speed is;

v_max = at

Thus, for laura;

Vmax for laura= 5.319 × 2

V_max for laura = 10.638 m/s

Also, for healan;

Vmax = 3.745 × 3

V_max for Healan = 11.235 m/s

C) to find which sprinter is ahead at 6.00 s,

For Laura:

D = (½(5.319 × 2²)) + (2² × 10.638)

D_laura = 53.19 m

For Helen: D = (½(3.745 × 3²)) + (3 × 11.235) = 50.558 m

Difference = 53.19 - 50.558 = 2.632

Thus, Laura is ahead by 2.632 m

C) We are told that laura achieved max speed in 2 s while healan took 3 s. This means that when Laura had reached her maximum speed Healan was still accelerating. Thus;

From v_max = at

10.638 = (3.745)t

t = 10.638/3.745

t = 2.84 s

Distance travelled during this time is;

For Laura:

D = (½(5.319 × 2²) + (0.84)(10.638) = 19.574 m

Foe Healan:

D = (½(3.745 × 2.84²)) = 15.103 m

Difference = 19.574 - 15.103 = 4.471 m

Thus, Healan is 4.471 m behind laura
