Answer:It turns out the Venus flytrap is a power plant, capable of generating electrical signals. Each trap is actually a modified leaf: a hinged midrib, which would be the central vein of a more familiar leaf, joins the two lobes, which secrete a sweet sap to attract insects.
Explanation:The leaves of Venus' Flytrap open wide and on them are short, stiff hairs called trigger or sensitive hairs. When anything touches these hairs enough to bend them, the two lobes of the leaves snap shut trapping whatever is inside.
Answer:
a) 6.95 m/s
b) 1.42 seconds
Explanation:
t = Time taken
u = Initial velocity
v = Final velocity
s = Displacement
a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
a) The vertical speed when it leaves the ground. is 6.95 m/s
Time taken to reach the maximum height is 0.71 seconds
Time taken to reach the ground from the maximum height is 0.71 seconds
b) Time it stayed in the air is 0.71+0.71 = 1.42 seconds
Answer:
The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN
Explanation:
Mass of rock = 25 kg
Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²
Height = 42 m
Potential energy, PE = mgh, where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.
PE = 25 x 10 x 42 = 10500 N = 10.5 kN
The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN
The frequency of a wave is the number of waves that passes through a point in a certain time. The less waves that pass in a period of time the lower the frequency of the wave. The more waves that pass in a period of time the higher the frequency of the wave. When measuring wave length the time period used is usually one second.
