Jamal is testing the effect of four different fertilizers on a particular plant. For his experiment, Jamal obtained twenty ident
ical plants. He placed the plants in identical pots, exposed them to the same amount of sunlight each day, and gave them the same amount of water. Every week for twelve weeks, Jamal gave the plants equal amounts of fertilizer. Four plants received fertilizer W, four plants received fertilizer X, four plants received fertilizer Y, four plants received fertilizer Z, and four plants didn't receive any fertilizer at all. At the end of each week, Jamal measured the height of each plant and recorded his data in a table. His data for week five appears below. Fertilizer Trial 1 Trial 2 Trial 3 Trial 4 None 7 cm 8 cm 8 cm 7 cm W 8 cm 7 cm 8 cm 7 cm X 10 cm 12 cm 11 cm 10 cm Y 5 cm 6 cm 5 cm 5 cm Z 10 cm 4 cm 7 cm 9 cm At the end of week five, Jamal concluded that fertilizers X and Z improved the growth rate of his plants. Which trials led Jamal to this conclusion? A. trials 1 and 4 for fertilizer X and all trials for fertilizer Z B. trials 2 and 3 for fertilizer X and trials 1 and 4 for fertilizer Z C. all trials for fertilizer X and trials 1 and 4 for fertilizer Z D. all trials for both fertilizer X and fertilizer Z
C. all trials for fertilizer X and trials 1 and 4 for fertilizer Z
Explanation:
Plants without fertilizer had a height of 7 cm or 8 cm. Taking these values as a reference, from the table we can see that fertilizer W has no effect, fertilizer Y has a negative effect (heights are below the reference), fertilizer X has a positive effect (heights are above the reference), and fertilizer Z has a positive effect in trials 1 and 4 and a negative effect in trials 2 and 3, that suggest this fertilizer is not as effective as fertilizer X, even though, it is concluded that it improved the growth rate of the plants given that it had a positive effect in some trials.
If I’m understanding this. Th reason why the ball can resist gravity’s pull is because the force used to throw it up was greater than gravity’s pull on it. BTW, gravity’s pull is 9.8m/s. So it would have to be greater than that
