Froghopper insects have a typical mass of around 11.3 mg and can jump to a height of 58.8 cm. The takeoff velocity is achieved a
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

2874.33 m/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-0^2}{2\times h}\\\Rightarrow v^2=2ah\ m/s

Now H-h = 0.588 - 0.002 = 0.586 m

The final velocity will be the initial velocity

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow 0^2-u^2=2gs\\\Rightarrow -2ah=2\times g(H-h)\\\Rightarrow -2a0.002=2\times g0.586\\\Rightarrow a=-\frac{0.586\times -9.81}{0.002}\\\Rightarrow a=2874.33\ m/s^2

Acceleration of the frog is 2874.33 m/s²

One mole of a gas is placed in a closed system with a 20 L vessel initially at T = 300 K. The vessel is then isothermally expand
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Given that

P = RT/V + a/V²

We know that

H= U + PV

For T= Constant  (ΔU=0)

ΔH= ΔU +Δ( PV)

ΔH= Δ( PV)

P = RT/V + a/V²

P V= RT + a/V

dH/dV = d(RT + a/V)/dV

dH/dV = - a/V²

So the expression of dH/dV

\dfrac{dH}{dV}=\dfrac{-a}{V^2}

b)

In isothermal process

\Delta H=nRT\ln{\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}}      (ΔU=0)

Now by putting the all values

\Delta H=nRT\ln{\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}}

\Delta H=1\times 0.08206\times 300\ln{\dfrac{40}{20}}

ΔH = 17.06 L.atm

Answer:

Year wise Percentage of Attendance in Senior Secondary Schools of India The given graph shows that the percentage of attendance is recorded with a gap of 5 years. The given table depicts, across time, from the year 2000 to 2015. During the 15 years, there is a steady and healthy increase in the percentage of attendance in ll the four types of schools. The increase in Convent-run schools is much higher compared to the other three types of schools. Initially, the village schools show a noticeably poor percentage of attendance and the General English Medium schools show less percentage of attendance compared to the Convent-run schools. All in all the continuous higher percentage indicates that the relevant authorities are learned about improving the education of the country. The poor attendance in the 2010 in the Government-run village schools shows a big leap in the year 2015, indicating that the Government must have taken an effective measure to improve literacy in the villages. Noteworthy increase in the attendance indicates solid infrastructure and focus towards the healthy growth of the corresponding authorities.

Explain why stones are strong in compression but weak in tension ​
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Gigantic towers, monuments and tall structures are always supported by a very thick layer of concrete that’s blended into their foundation. The purpose of this is quite straightforward: nothing provides greater support to a super heavy (and stationary) structure than a layer of concrete.  There may be other things that, in theory, could provide a stronger foundation, but they wouldn’t be nearly as cost effective as concrete.
