Sharp claws in wild animals is an example of which type of adaptation?

Sati [7]

Answer:

Structural adaptation

Explanation:

When any physical body part of an organism helps it in surviving, then this mechanism of survival is called a structural adaptation. For example short tail of penguins helps them in balancing on their heels and tails due to which they are able to reduce heat released from their feet. Thus, any physical parts of an organism that helps them in coping with the surrounding physical environment /predators are refereed to as a mode of structural adaptation.

Need help solving this question.

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

to solve this problem we must make a free body diagram, with the forces acting on the metal rod.

i)

The center of gravity of the rod is concentrated in half the distance, that is, from the end of the bar to the center there is 40 [cm]. This can be seen in the attached free body diagram.

We have only two equilibrium equations, a summation of forces on the Y-axis equal to zero, and a summation of moments on any point equal to zero.

For the summation of forces we will take the forces upwards as positive and the negative forces downwards.

ΣF = 0

$-15+T-W=0\\T-W=15$

Now we perform a sum of moments equal to zero around the point of attachment of the string with the metal bar. Let's take as a positive the moment of the force that rotates the metal bar counterclockwise.

ii) In the free body diagram we can see that the force acts at 18 [cm] of the string.

ΣM = 0

$(15*9) - (18*W) = 0\\135 = 18*W\\W = 7.5 [N]$

We are going to focus on the gravitational force between Earth and our Moon. The Earth has a mass of about 6 x 10/24 kg and the

Basile [38]

Answer

Gravity is what holds us down on the earth's (or moon's) surface. If you were to weigh yourself on a scale on Earth and then on the moon, the weight read on the moon would be 1/6 your earth weight
