Chameleons catch insects with their tongues, which they can rapidly extend to great lengths. In a typical strike, the chameleon'

s tongue accelerates at a remarkable 260 m/s2 for 20 ms, then travels at constant speed for another 30 ms. During this total time of 50 ms, 1/20 of a second, how far does the tongue reach?

Chameleon's tongue is more fast than thought. Its long sticky tongue moves at an amazing ballistic speed which lashes out unsuspecting insects and bugs. Now let us see how fast it is.

GIven:

acceleration of the chameleon's tongue- 260 m/s
2 for 20 ms
constant speed 30 ms
50 ms total time
1/20 of a second

solution:

<u>260</u> = <u>  n</u><u>  </u>
20       50
<u>20 n </u>= <u>13, 000</u>
20            20
n= 650 m/s

In comparing sunspots to other areas of the sun's surface one can say that sunspots are...?
taurus [48]

Answer:

D. Cooler

Explanation:

The Sun's surface has a temperature ranging from 6 000 Kelvin, thus it is very hot. The radioactive reaction in the core of the Sun is a nuclear fusion reaction. This reaction ensures continuous release of high energy from the surface of the Sun.

But during the reaction, some parts becomes cooler than other parts on its surface. Which is due to the release of high amount of energy into space. The Sun's spot can be found in the cooler part of the Sun.

To run the physics cart, the fan speed of the cart is manipulated. This is the (blank) variable. The cart accelerates due to the
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

A) Independent

B) Dependent

C) Mass

Explanation:

The speed applied to the physics cart is manipulated. This doesn't depend on another variable. Thus, speed is the (independent) variable.

The cart accelerates due to the speed applied to the cart. Acceleration depends on the speed applied. Thus, acceleration is therefore the (dependent) variable.

A “constant” is a parameter that remains the same regardless of the variables.

One parameter of the cart that is held constant is the (mass).

What would the single sample Cohen's d value be if the difference in sample mean and hypothesized mean was 16, and the sample st
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate an effect size, called Cohen's d , for the one-sample t-test you need to divide the mean difference by the standard deviation of the difference, as shown below. Note that, here: sd(x-mu) = sd(x) . μ is the theoretical mean against which the mean of our sample is compared (default value is mu = 0).

What are some of the phenotypic plant traits that scientists are investigating? Why do you think these traits were chosen?
vodomira [7]

The term phenotype in a more specific context to describe the collective expression of the genotype in conjunction with the environment on a plant's observable characteristics.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Phenotype, any of the measurable features of an organism arising from its genotype association (total genetic inheritance) with the environment. Behaviour, biochemical properties, colour, form, and scale are examples of measurable characteristics.
  • An allele is another type of one gene. A phenotype triggered by the expression of a gene or group of genes is the external manifestation of a human trait.
  • A trait is an attribute unique to an organism. The genotype's external expression is called the phénotype.
