Which structures main function is to produce food (sugar) in a plant

Physics

leva [86]3 years ago

Technically speaking, there are many "levels" of a plant for which this may hold true. I think the one you are referring to is the chloroplast. It takes in the light energy from the sun, water and carbon dioxide, and performs photosynthesis on them to produce sugar and oxygen. A leaf would also fit the description as this is a very general question.

A force acts on a body of mass 13 kg initially at rest. The force
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Force that acted on the body was F = 13 N

Explanation:

If once accelerated, the body covers 60 meters in 6 seconds, then its velocity is 60/6 m/s = 10 m/s

When the force was acting (for 10 seconds) the object accelerated from rest (initial velocity vi = 0) to 10 m/s (its final velocity). therefore we can use the kinematic equation for the velocity in an accelerated motion given by:

v_f=v_i+a*t

which in our case becomes;

10\,m/s=0+a*(10\,s)

and we can solve for the acceleration as:

a = 10/10  m/s^2 = 1 m/s^2

Therefore the force acting on the body, based on Newton's 2nd Law expression: F = m * a is:

F = 13 kg * 1 m/s^2 = 13 N

A roofer needs to get shingles onto a roof. Pulling the shingles up manually uses 1,549 N or force. The roofer decides to use a
joja [24]

Answer:

Mechanical advantage of pulleys = 3.47 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Manual force = 1,549 N

Pulleys force = 446 N

Find:

Mechanical advantage of pulleys

Computation:

Mechanical advantage of pulleys = Manual force / Pulleys force

Mechanical advantage of pulleys = 1,549 / 446

Mechanical advantage of pulleys = 3.4730

Mechanical advantage of pulleys = 3.47 (Approx)

Does voltage flow in a circuit? Explain
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Voltage is the measure of specific potential energy (potential energy per unit charge) between two locations. ... When a voltage source is connected to a circuit, the voltage will cause a uniform flow of charge carriers through that circuit called a current.

In addition to light and chlorophyll photosynthesis requires
labwork [276]

Answer:

Water (H₂O) and Carbon dioxide (CO₂)

Explanation:

Photosynthesis usually refers to the process by which the green plants can synthesize their own food in the presence of sunlight, water, carbon dioxide, and light. This process helps in the conversion of light energy into chemical energy.

In addition to the sunlight and chlorophyll, the process of photosynthesis requires water as well as carbon dioxide. The plants are comprised of green pigments on their leaves that are commonly known as chlorophyll. These pigments absorb the water molecules and carbon dioxide gas that helps in synthesizing their food.

The equation for the process of photosynthesis is given below:

6CO₂ + 6H₂0 + (energy) → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

A physics student spins a bucket of water over her head in a circular path in order to demonstrate centripetal force. She fills
Ronch [10]

Answer:

The first case requires more force to spin de bucket.

Explanation:

As we know, the centripetal force is directly proportional to the mass, the equation is given by:

F_{c}=ma_{c}

The first case has a quarter more water than the second case, therefore the first case requires more force to spin de bucket.

I hope it helps you!
