Answer:

It depends upon the sunlight intensity known as ALBEDO, the amount of energy used by photosynthesis and the chemical composition of corn.

Explanation:

Albedo is a measure of the amount of light reflected from an object. Albedo is normally expressed as a decimal value representing the percentage of light reflected.

Photosynthesis, a biological process, uses the energy of sunlight to manufacture sugar, which serves as the universal food for life. Oxygen produced as a product of photosynthesis is released into the environment.

The formula for this reaction is:

6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2

• where CO2 represents carbon dioxide

• H2O represents water

• C6H12O6 represents the sugar molecules (carbohydrate)

• and O2 represents oxygen

The energy from the sun that reaches the corn is about two billionths.

If an object suspended by a scale shows a weight of 3 N in air, and 2 N when submerged in water, the buoyant force on the submer

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

1 N

Explanation:

Buoyant Force: This is also called upthrust, It can be defined as the force which act upward exerted by a fluid when an object is placed in it.

The S.I unit is Newton.

From the question,

Buoyant force = Weight of the object in air- weight of the object when submerged in water.

U = W-W'.......................... Equation 1

Where U = upthrust, W = weight in air, W' = weight when submerged in water.

Given: W = 3 N, W' = 2 N

Substitute into equation 1

U = 3-2

W = 1 N

What do you need to know to be able to determine how far a projectile travels horizontally?

Effectus [21]

As for me, there are two suitable answers for the question represented above and here is a short explanation why I consider these two to be correct :
D. The horizontal velocity of the projectile and <span>B. The length of time before it lands
</span> $v_x = v*cos(x) [

d_x = v_x(t) + ½at²$ -- this led me to answers! Hope everything is clear! Regards!<span>

Beginning at the NW corner of the intersection of Pine & 675, thence north 950 feet, thence west 380 feet, thence south 950

Serjik [45]

Answer:

this description is valid for mediadle displacement, bone is an acceptable description

Explanation:

The description of a person's position must be done with a position vector. These vectors must have magnitude, a given direction and a starting point.

In the description this has a starting point corner NO of pine and 675.

Each displacement occurs with respect to the previous one, indicating the magnitude of the displacement and its direction.

After analyzing this description is valid for mediadle displacement, bone is an acceptable description

Why is gravity so weird? .

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Why is gravity so weird? No force is more familiar than gravity — it's what keeps our feet on the ground, after all. And Einstein's theory of general relativity gives a mathematical formulation for gravity, describing it as a “warping” of space.
