<span>After the caterpillar eats a leaf, it can convert the chemical energy into mechanical energy to help build a cocoon. The leaf as their source of food contains mostly of starch and cellulose. This must be break down into smaller compounds by enzymes. The smaller compounds will enter into the different parts of the caterpillars’ body for nutrition. The nutrients that are received by its body will be used for other body processes such as movement in building a cocoon.</span>

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) speed of passenger = circumference / time

= 2π R / Time

= 2 x 3.14 x 50 / 60

= 5.23 m /s

b )

centrifugal force = m v² /R

= (882 /9.8 ) x 5.23² / 50

= 77.47 N

Apparent weight at the highest point

real weight - centrifugal force

= 882 - 77.47

= 804.53 N

Apparent weight at the lowest point

real weight + centrifugal force

= 882 +77.47

= 959.47 N

c ) if the passenger’s apparent weight at the highest point were zero

centrifugal force = weight

mv² /R = mg

v² = gR

= 9.8 X 50

v = 22.13 m /s

d )

apparent weight

mg - mv² / R

= 882 - (882 / 9.8 )x 22.13²/50

= 882 + 882

= 1764 N

A harmonic wave is traveling along a rope. It is observed that the oscillator that generates the wave completes 37.6 vibrations

tangare [24]

Answer:

$\lambda = 25.79\ cm$

Explanation:

given,

Wave vibrates = 37.6

time = 27.9 s

maximum distance travel = 450 cm

time = 11.3 s

wavelength = ?

frequency of wave

$f=\dfrac{37.6}{27.9}$

f = 1.35 Hz

Speed of wave

$v = \dfrac{450}{11.3}$

v = 39.82 cm/s

wavelength of wave

v = fλ

$\lambda =\dfrac{v}{f}$

$\lambda =\dfrac{34.82}{1.35}$

$\lambda = 25.79\ cm$

Hence, wavelength of the wave is equal to 25.79 cm.

When a body of mass 0.25 kg is attached to a vertical massless spring, it is extended 5.0 cm from its unstretched length of 4.0

lora16 [44]

Answer:

$d=0.165m$

Explanation:

Given

$m=0.25kg$ , $x_{1}=5cm*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.05m$ , $x_{2}=4cm*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.04m$ , $v=2\frac{rev}{s}$

The tension of the spring is

$F_{k}=K*x_{1}=m*g$

$K=\frac{m*g}{x_{1}}$

$K=\frac{0.25kg*9.8m/s^2}{0.05m}=49N/m$

The force in the spring is equal to centripetal force so

$F_{c}=\frac{m*v^2}{r}$

$v=w*r=2\pi*r$

But Fc is also

Fc=KxΔr

$F_{c}=K*(r-x_{2})$

Replacing

$m*4\pi^2*r=K*(r-x_{2})$

$0.25kg*4\pi^2*r=49*(r-0.04m)$

$r=0.205m$

total distance is

$d=0.205-0.04=0.165m$

Energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength of a wave. Which would have the GREATEST energy? A wave with a

Ivan

Answer:

A 5

Explanation:

The wave with the least amount of wavelength will have the greatest amount of energy.

Wavelength and energy shares an inverse relationship;

E = h f = $\frac{hc}{wavelength}$

From this equation, we see that the higher the energy of a wave, the lesser its wavelength.

Choice A from the options has the least wavelength.
Wavelength is the distance between two successive crests of a wave.

This is why we see that in the electromagnetic spectrum, radio waves have the least energy because they have the longest wavelength.

A boat having stones floats in water. If stones are unloaded in water, what will happen to the level of water?

Pani-rosa [81]

Explanation:

If the stones are unloaded from the boat, the weight of the boat will decrease. Therefore, the volume of the water displaced by the boat will also decrease. Due to this, the volume of the boat immersed in the water decreases. Hence, the level of the water around the boat will decrease.
