A. Cohesion
Because adhesion is the property of attraction to a different substance but cohesion is the tendency of water molecules to attract one another

Answer: B

Cohesion makes water stick together, which is vital in transporting nutrients from tree roots to other parts of the plant.

A spring is 6.0cm long when it is not stretched, and 10cm long when a 7.0N force is applied. What force is needed to make it 20c
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Approximately 25\; {\rm N} (assuming that this spring is ideal.)

Explanation:

The displacement of a spring is the new length of the spring relative to the original length.

For example:

  • When the 6.0\; {\rm cm}-spring in this question is stretched to 10\; {\rm cm}, the displacement is x = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}).
  • Likewise, if this spring is stretched to 20\; {\rm cm}, the displacement would be (20\; {\rm cm} - 6\; {\rm cm}).

If this spring is ideal, the force on the spring would be proportional to the displacement of the spring. In other words, if a force of F_{\text{a}} displaces this spring by x_{\text{a}}, while a force of F_{\text{b}} displaces this spring by x_{\text{b}}, then:

\displaystyle \frac{F_{\text{a}}}{x_{\text{a}}} = \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{x_{\text{b}}}.

In this question, it is given that a force of F_{\text{a}} = 7.0 \; {\rm N} would stretch this spring by x_{\text{a}} = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}). Thus, the force F_{\text{b}} required to stretch this spring by x_{\text{a}} = (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}) would satisfy:

\displaystyle \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}= \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}.

Rearrange and solve for F_{\text{b}}:

\begin{aligned} F_{\text{b}} &= \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}} \, (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}) \\ &\approx 25\; {\rm N}\end{aligned}.

Answer:

I think it is better if you read and shortly write my explanation

Explanation:

simple pendulum with no friction, mechanical energy is conserved. Total mechanical energy is a combination of kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy. As the pendulum swings back and forth, there is a constant exchange between kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy.

In a standard tensile test a steel rod of 22-mm diameter is subjected to a tension force of 75kN. Knowing that v = 0.30 and E =
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

(a) Elongation of rod = 0.19732 mm

(b) Change in diameter = 0.00651 mm

Explanation:

Circular area at end of steel rod = pi * diameter^2 / 4

Area = pi * (22 * 10^-^3)/4

Area = 3.801 * 10^(-4)    meter squared

Stress = force / area

Stress = 75000 / (3.801 * 10^-4)

Stress = 197316495 Pa     OR       0.197 GPa

Modulus of elasticity = stress / strain

200 = 0.19732 / Strain

Strain = 0.0009866     (longitudinal)

(a) Strain = change in length / initial length

0.0009866 = Elongation of rod / 200

Elongation of rod = 0.19732 mm

(b) Poisson ratio = lateral strain / longitudinal strain

0.3 = lateral strain / 0.0009866

Lateral strain = 0.000296

Lateral strain = Change in diameter / original diameter

0.000296 = Change in diameter / 22

Change in diameter = 0.00651 mm

Which describes the movement of a fluid during convection?
VikaD [51]
The movement of a fluid during convection is a circular/oval motion since the fluid at the top sinks and the fluid at the bottom rises.
