Answer: B. greenhouse technology

Explanation:

Greenhouse technology is the technology which can be used to grow and cultivate the crops in closed glass house. This will trap the sunlight and allow to grow the crops in cold regions of the world. As the plants are remained protected from the external environment they will remain protected against the activity of the harmful pests.

Greenhouse will be the correct option to grow more apple trees as this technology will provide high quality apples, in large number due to increase in resistance with the pests.

B. Greenhouse technology 

Since the green house will help keep the pest and harmful conditions. The greenhouse will be able to control temperatures and will keep out harmful bugs. You/I will be able to provide the tree with the perfect sequence of growth.

A diver jumps off a cliff 50m high and needs to clear the rock that extend outward 5.0m from the base of the cliff. The diver ju
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

He should run at least at 1.5 m/s

The diver will enter the water at an angle of 87° below the horizontal.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The position and velocity of the diver are given by the following vectors:

r = (x0 + v0x · t, y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²)

v = (v0x, v0y + g · t)

Where:

r = position vector at time t

x0 = initial horizontal position

v0x = initial horizontal velocity

t = time

y0 = initial vertical position

v0y = initial vertical velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the  upward direction as positive)

v = velocity vector at time t

Please, see the attached figure for a description of the problem. Notice that the origin of the frame of reference is located at the jumping point so that x0 and y0 = 0.

We know that, to clear the rocks, the position vector r final (see figure) should be:

r final = ( > 5.0 m, -50 m)

So let´s find first at which time the y-component of the vector r final is - 50 m:

y = y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²

-50 m = 2.1 m/s · t - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

0 = -4.9 m/s² · t² + 2.1 m/s · t + 50 m

Solving the quadratic equation

t = 3.4 s

Now, we can calculate the initial horizontal velocity using the equation of the x-component of the position vector knowing that at t =3.4 the horizontal component should be greater than 5.0 m:

x = x0 + v0x · t      (x0 = 0)

5.0 m < v0x · 3.4 s

v0x > 5.0 m / 3.4 s

v0x > 1.5 m/s

The initial horizontal velocity should be greater than 1.5 m/s

To find the angle at which the diver enters the water, we have to find the magnitude of the final velocity (vector vf in the figure). We already know the magnitude of the x-component of the vector vf, since the horizontal velocity is constant. So:

vfx > 1.5 m/s

Now, let´s calculate vfy:

vfy = v0y + g · t

vfy = 2.1 m/s - 9.8 m/s² · 3.4 s

vfy = -31 m/s

Let´s calculate the minimum magnitude that the final velocity will have if the diver safely clears the rocks. Let´s consider the smallest value allowed for vfx: 1.5 m/s. Then:

|v| = \sqrt{(1.5 m/s)^{2} + (31m/s)^{2}} = 31 m/s

Then the final velocity of the diver will be greater or equal than 31 m/s.

To find the angle, we have to use trigonometry. Notice in the figure that the vectors vf, vfx and vy form a right triangle in which vf is the hypotenuse, vfx is the adjacent side and vfy is the opposite side to the angle. Then:

cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse = vfx / vf = 1.5 m/s / 31 m/s

θ = 87°

The diver will enter the water at an angle of 87° below the horizontal.

How large an expansion gap should be left between steel railroad rails if they may reach a maximum temperature 40.0°C greater th
ella [17]

Answer:

19.68 × 10⁻³ m

Explanation:

Given;

Original Length, L₁ = 41.0 m

Temperature Change, ΔT = 40.0°C

Thermal Linear expansion of steel is given to be, ∝_{steel} = 12 × 10⁻⁶ /°C

   Generally, Linear expansivity is expressed as;

                               ∝ = ΔL / L₁ΔT

Where

∝ is the Linear expansivity

ΔL is the change in length, L₂ - L₁

L₂ is the final length

L₁ is the original length

ΔT is the change in temperature θ₂ - θ₁ (Final Temperature - Initial Temperature)              

From equation of linear expansivity

                         ΔL = ∝_{steel}L₁ΔT

                         ΔL = 12 × 10⁻⁶ /°C × 41.0 m × 40.0 °C

                         ΔL = 19.68 × 10⁻³ m

                         ΔL = 19.68 mm

Attempt 2 You have been called to testify as an expert witness in a trial involving a head-on collision. Car A weighs 15151515 l
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

v = 28.98 ft / s

Explanation:

For this problem we must solve it in parts, let's start by looking for the speed of the two cars after the collision

In the exercise they indicate the weight of each car

          Wₐ = 1500 lb

          W_b = 1125 lb

Car B's velocity from v_b = 42.0 mph westward, car A travels east

let's find the mass of the vehicles

             W = mg

             m = W / g

             mₐ = Wₐ / g

             m_b = W_b / g

             mₐ = 1500/32 = 46.875 slug

             m_b = 125/32 = 35,156 slug

Let's reduce to the english system

             v_b = 42.0 mph (5280 foot / 1 mile) (1h / 3600s) = 61.6 ft / s

We define a system formed by the two vehicles, so that the forces during the crash have been internal and the moment is preserved

we assume the direction to the east (right) positive

initial instant. Before the crash

           p₀ = mₐ v₀ₐ - m_b v_{ob}

final instant. Right after the crash

           p_f = (mₐ + m_b) v

the moment is preserved

           p₀ = p_f

           mₐ v₀ₐ - m_b v_{ob} = (mₐ + m_b) v

           v = \frac{ m_a \ v_{oa} - m_b \ v_{ob}  }{ m_a +m_b}

we substitute the values

           v = \frac{ 46.875}{82.03} \ v_{oa} -  \frac{35.156}{82.03} \ 61.6

           v = 0.559 v₀ₐ - 26.40                  (1)

Now as the two vehicles united we can use the relationship between work and kinetic energy

the total mass is

              M = mₐ + m_b

              M = 46,875 + 35,156 = 82,031 slug

starting point. Jsto after the crash

              K₀ = ½ M v²

final point. When they stop

             K_f = 0

The work is

             W = - fr x

the negative sign is because the friction forces are always opposite to the displacement

Let's write Newton's second law

Axis y

           N-W = 0

           N = W

the friction force has the expression

            fr = μ N

we substitute

            -μ W x = Kf - Ko

             

            -μ W x = 0 - ½ (W / g) v²

            v² = 2 μ g x  

            v = \sqrt{ 2 \ 0.750 \ 32 \ 17.5}Ra (2 0.750 32 17.5  

            v = 28.98 ft / s

Cat walks 100 m  East, then turns around and walks 25 m west. What is the cats displacement?
kvasek [131]

Answer:

<h3>75m</h3>

Explanation:

If a cat walk 100m East, this means that it is walking in the positive x direction, the distance will therefore be +100m

If it turns around and walks 25 m west, the direction of movement is in the negative x direction i.e -25m

Taking the sum;

Displacement = +100m - 25m

Displacement of the cat = 75m

hence the cats displacement is 75m
