This is triggered by an activity known as heliotropism, or solar tracking. Special motor cells at the bases of the flowerbuds shrink or enlarge as they absorb water, which moves their faces toward the sun.

An airplane has wings, each with area A, designed so that air flows over the top of the wing at 265 m/s and underneath the wing
exis [7]

Answer

given,

Pressure on the top wing = 265 m/s

speed of underneath wings = 234 m/s

mass of the airplane =  7.2 × 10³ kg

density of air =  1.29 kg/m³

using Bernoulli's equation

 P_1 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = P_2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2

 \Delta P =\dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)

 \Delta P =\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.29\times (265^2-234^2)

 \Delta P =9977.5 Pa

Applying newtons second law

2 Δ P x A - mg = 0

A =\dfrac{mg}{2\Delta P}

A =\dfrac{7.2\times 10^3 \times 9.8}{2\times 9977.5}

    A = 3.53 m²

Which of the following options is correct and why?
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Option (e) = The charge can be located anywhere since flux does not depend on the position of the charge as long as it is inside the sphere.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following set of infomation in the question given above;

=> "spherical Gaussian surface of radius R centered at the origin."

=> " A charge Q is placed inside the sphere."

So, the question is that if we are to maximize the magnitude of the flux of the electric field through the Gaussian surface, the charge should be located where?

The CORRECT option (e) that is " The charge can be located anywhere since flux does not depend on the position of the charge as long as it is inside the sphere." Is correct because of the reason given below;

REASON: because the charge is "covered" and the position is unknown, the flux will continue to be constant.

Also, the Equation that defines Gauss' law does not specify the position that the charge needs to be located, therefore it can be anywhere.

What are the similarities and differences between chemical and physical properties?
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Physical properties are different from chemical properties of a substance. The main difference between physical and chemical properties is that physical properties can be observed without changing the chemical composition of a substance whereas chemical properties can be observed by changing the chemical composition of a substance.
