Basidiomycete fungi ballistically eject millions of spores into the air by releasing the surface tension energy of a water dropl

et condensing on the spore. The spores are ejected with typical speeds of 1.09 m/s, allowing them to clear the "boundary layer" of still air near the ground to be carried away and dispersed by winds.
(a) If a given spore is accelerated from rest to 1.09 m/s in 7.85 µs, what is the magnitude of the constant acceleration of the spore (in m/s^2) while being ejected?

Answer:

1.4 x 10^5 m/s^2.

Explanation:

Given the following:

vi = 0 m/s.

vf = 1.09 m/s.

t = 7.85 µs.

Using,

vf = vi + a*t

1.09 = a*7.8 x 10^-6

a = 139743.6

= 1.4 x 10^5 m/s^2.

A trapeze artist swings in simple harmonic motion with a period of 3.8 s.
pogonyaev
As we know that time period of simple pendulum is given as

T = 2π √L/g

here we know that

T = 3.8 s

now from above equation we know that

T² = 4π² (L/g)

now on rearranging the above equation we will have

L = gT² / 4π²

now plug in all data into it

L = (9.8) (3.8)² / (4) (3.14)²

so the length of the cable must be 3.6 m

What was the voltage on the battery for the #2 series circuit with two light bulbs?A: 4 VB: 18 VC: 4.5 VD: 9 V
Ghella [55]

We are given a series circuit with two light bulbs. In this case, the light bulbs act as resistors in series and the total resistance is:

R_t=R_1+R_2

That is the sum of all the resistances in series in the circuit. To determine the voltage we can use Ohm's law:

V=IR

Where "R" is the total resistance and "I" is the current in the circuit. Replacing we get:

V=I(R_1+R_2)

A student hangs a wood block from a spring. The student pulls the block downwards so the spring is stretched and holds the block
Murrr4er [49]
Kinetic energy because of the wood plank is just still and not moving it’s potential but since it’s asking which one it doesn’t have it doesn’t have kinetic energy cause it’s not moving

a bends each wavelength of white light slightly differently so that each wavelength color comes out separated forming a rainbow
lianna [129]
The answer here is prism. The light passing through prism experiences bending of its multiple wavelength composition which allows it to visibly shows the difference in each of the light's color wavelength, violet bending the most while the least is the color red.
