Answer:

Positive z-direction

Explanation:

According to Fleming's right hand rule, point the fingers of your right hand in the direction of Electric field E ( positive x-direction), and curl your fingers toward magnetic field B (positive y-direction), and your thumb points in the direction of propagation of wave (positive z-direction).

Therefore, the correct option will be positive z-direction.

We know for newton's 2nd law of motion that the force on an object is equal to the mass of the object times the acceleration of
Dmitrij [34]

         Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

           5 N  =  (9 kg) x (acceleration)

Divide each side
by  9 kg :              5 N / 9 kg  =  acceleration

                           Acceleration = (5/9)  kg-meter/sec²-kg

                                             =  0.555...  m/s²   .

How does the physical structure of a plant have<br> Large leaves help it survive?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The large leaves help it survive as they serve as the<u> organ for photosynthesis.</u>

Explanation:

  • Photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy.
  • During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds
  • Leaves provide food and air to help a plant stay healthy and grow. Through photosynthesis, leaves turn light energy into food.
  • Through pores, or stomata, leaves breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen. Leaves also release excess water.
  • Most leaves are broad and so have a large surface area allowing them to absorb more light
  • A thin shape means a short distance for carbon dioxide to diffuse in and oxygen to diffuse out easily.
  • The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the leaf occurs through pores called stomata.
  • Normally stomata open when the light strikes the leaf in the morning and close during the night.
