Answer 2

Among the materials listed, examples of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are PCBs (Polychlorinated Biphenyls) DDT (Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane). The correct option is (2) and (3).

Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are a class of chemicals that are long-lasting, bioaccumulative, and harmful to humans and wildlife. These pollutants are resistant to degradation and can persist in the environment for long periods of time, resulting in long-distance transport and bioaccumulation in the food chain.

PCBs (Polychlorinated Biphenyls): Once utilized in a variety of industrial applications such as electrical transformers and capacitors, PCBs are now prohibited in many countries due to their toxicity.

DDT (Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane): An pesticide that was widely used for agricultural and public health objectives in the past but is now restricted or banned due to its environmental and health effects.

Hence, the correct answer is PCBs and DDT. The correct option is (2) and (3).

Explanation:

A person on a bike (m = 90 kg) is traveling 4 m/s at the top of a 2 m hill. What is the biker's total energy?

a) 1,944 J

b) 2,484 J

c) 1,764 J

d) 720 J

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Total mechanical energy is

E = mgh + ½mv²

E = m(gh + ½v²)

E = 90(9.8(2.0) + ½4²)

E = 2,484 J answer b)

A person on a bike (m = 90 kg) is traveling 4 m/s at the top of a 2 m hill. the total energy of the biker would be 2484 Joules.

What is mechanical energy?

Mechanical energy is the combination of all the energy in motion represented by total kinetic energy and the total potential energy stored energy in the system which is represented by total potential energy.

As given in the problem a person on a bike (m = 90 kg) is traveling 4 m/s at the top of a 2 m hill.

The total kinetic energy of the biker

KE = 1/2 × m × v²

    = 0.5 × 90 × 4²

    = 720

Similarly, the total potential energy of the biker

PE = m × g × h

     =90 × 9.8 × 2

      = 1764 Joules

The total energy of the biker = 720 + 1764

                                                 = 2484 Joules

Thus, the total energy of the biker would be 2484 Joules .

Which of the following statements is true?
a Penicillin is produced by fungal fermentation.
b
The effects of too much beer or wine can be
countered with antibiotics.
с
The deadly Death Cap mushroom can be treated
with penicillin.
d Antibiotics do not treat fungal diseases.

Answers

Answer:

a Penicillin is produced by fungal fermentation.

Explanation:

The industrial production of penicillin (PEN) occurs via fermentation using the filamentous fungus Penicillium chrysogenum

Penicillin G (benzylpenicillin) was first produced from a penicillium fungus that occurs in nature. The strain of fungus used today for the manufacture of penicillin G was created by genetic engineering to improve the yield in the manufacturing process.

If the fossil has its neck bent backwards towards its back, that is the common way to which dinosaurs died.

If the fossil is scattered a bit from its other linking fossil pieces, than it is most likely that the dinosaur was a meal to a predator.

Fossils that are in array but are divided clearly at a section suggests that land moved. Possibly earthquake or Pangea took place.

A student is asked to calculate the centripetal acceleration of a hummingbird that makes a complete circle in 0.43 seconds. If the circle has a radius of 0.25 m, what is
the correct setup for determining the centripetal acceleration of the hummingbird?
(3.65m/s)2/0.25m
(3.65m/s)2-0.43
O (0.435)2 / 25m
O (0.432.25m

Answers

The centripetal acceleration of the hummingbird is [tex]\frac{(3.65)^2}{0.25} = 53.29 \ m/s^2[/tex]

The given parameters;

time of motion of the hummingbird, t = 0.43 sradius of the circle, r = 0.25 mnumber of revolution of the hummingbird = 1 rev per 0.43 s

The angular speed of the hummingbird is calculated as follows;

[tex]\omega = \frac{1 \ rev}{0.43 \ s} \times \frac{2\pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} =14.61 \ rad/s[/tex]

The linear speed of the hummingbird is calculated as follows;

v = ωr

v = 14.61 x 0.25

v = 3.65 m/s

The centripetal acceleration of the hummingbird is calculated as follows;

[tex]a_c = \frac{v^2}{r} \\\\a_c = \frac{(3.65)^2}{0.25} \\\\a_c = 53.29\ m/s^2[/tex]

Thus, the centripetal acceleration of the hummingbird is [tex]\frac{(3.65)^2}{0.25} = 53.29 \ m/s^2[/tex]

A 500 kg car is at rest at the top of a 72 m high hill. The car rolls to the bottom of the hill. At the bottom of the hill, the car has a speed of 25.6 m/s. Calculate the mechanical energy of the car at the top and bottom of the hill. (Assume the bottom of the hill has a height of 0 m, g=9.80 ms2/).

Answers

Explanation: Solution

1.

Gravitational potential energy

U=mgh=500*9.8*50

U=245000 J

2.

Kinetic energy is present at bottom of the hill

K=(1/2)mV2=(1/2)*500*27.82

K=193210 J

3.

Work done by friction

W=193210-245000=-51790 J

The mechanical energy at the top and bottom of the hill is equal to 352800 J and 163840 J respectively.

What is the kinetic energy and potential energy?

Kinetic energy (KE) can be described as the energy possessed by a moving object due to its motion. Work by a body will be done to change the kinetic energy. The kinetic energy is represented as K.E = ½mv².

Potential energy (P.E) can be described as the energy that is stored by an object due to its position and is represented in the equation as P.E = mgh, where ‘m’ is the mass, ‘g’ is the acceleration due to gravity and ‘h’ is the height.

The mechanical energy = Kinetic energy + potential energy

Given, the mass of the car, m = 500 Kg

The height of the hill, h = 72 m

The velocity of the car, v = 25.6 m/s

At the top of the hill, the mechanical energy = potential energy

The potential energy at the top of the hill, = mgh

P. E. = 500 × 9.8 ×72

P.E. = 352800 J

At the bottom of the hill, the mechanical energy = kinetic energy

The kinetic energy of the car at the bottom of the hill,

K.E. =  ½ × 500 (25.6)²

K.E. = 163840 J

The gravitational force between two objects is 2700 N. What will be the gravitational force between the objects if the distance between them triples?

Answers

F = GMm/r^2

So F is proportional to 1/r^2

F2 = 2700 x ( 1 / 3^2 ) = 300N

As two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases. ... If the separation distance between any two objects is tripled (increased by a factor of 3), then the force of gravitational attraction is decreased by a factor of 9 (3 raised to the second power).

How long does it take light from a camera to travel to the face of someone standing 7 meters away?

Answers

The time taken for the light to travel from the camera to someone standing 7 m away is 2.33×10¯⁸ s

Speed is simply defined as the distance travelled per unit time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed = distance / time

With the above formula, we can obtain the time taken for the light to travel from the camera to someone standing 7 m away. This can be obtained as follow:

Distance = 7 m

Speed of light = 3×10⁸ m/s

Time =?

Time = Distance / speed

Time = 7 / 3×10⁸

Time = 2.33×10¯⁸ s

Therefore, the time taken for the light to travel from the camera to someone standing 7 m away is 2.33×10¯⁸ s
