Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{v}{t} \\$

where

a is the acceleration

v is the velocity

t is the time

From the question we have

$a = \frac{12}{2} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

A slice of pizza has 500 kcal. If we could burn the pizza and use all the heat to warm a 50-L container of cold water, what woul

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

10°C

Explanation:

Heat gain by water = Heat lost by the slice of pizza

Thus,

$m_{water}\times C_{water}\times \Delta T=Q$

<u>For water: </u>

Volume = 50.0 L

Density of water= 1 kg/L

So, mass of the water:

$Mass\ of\ water=Density \times {Volume\ of\ water}$

$Mass\ of\ water=1 kg/L \times {50.0\ L}$

Mass of water = 50 kg

Specific heat of water = 1 kcal/kg°C

ΔT = ?

For slice of pizza:

Q = 500 kcal

So,

$50\times 1\times \Delta T=500$

ΔT = 10°C

Increase in temperature = 10°C

Explain how the elimination of a predator from an ecosystem might result in starvation amongst its prey species.

hammer [34]

If there weren't any predators, the population of prey would increase and they would starve due to too many mouths to feed.
