Plant's produce oxygen, to explain this you would state that the plant uses CO2 from the air and removes the carbon and then release breathable O2 into the atmosphere. To test this you could use a small fern and put it in a sealed container of some kind big enough to hold it, then add a burning candle in the container with the plant, since we know fire burms O2 and creates CO2 the plant should use the CO2 and create more O2 keeping the fire from burning out from lack of oxygen

Answer:

Approximately $8.4 \times 10^{2}\; \rm N$ , assuming that $g = 9.8\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ .

Explanation:

Let $m$ and $a$ denote the mass and acceleration of Spiderman, respectively.

There are two forces on Spiderman:

Downward gravitational attraction from the earth: $W = m \cdot g$ .
Upward tension force from the strand of web $F(\text{tension})$ .

The directions of these two forces are exactly opposite of one another. Besides, because Spiderman is accelerating upwards, the magnitude of $F(\text{tension})$ (which points upwards) should be greater than that of $W$ (which points downwards towards the ground.)

Subtract the smaller force from the larger one to find the net force on Spiderman:

$(\text{Net Force}) = F(\text{tension}) - W$ .

On the other hand, apply Newton's Second Law of motion to find the value of the net force on Spiderman:

$(\text{Net Force}) = m \cdot a$ .

Combine these two equations to get:

$m \cdot a = (\text{Net Force}) = F(\text{tension}) - W$ .

Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}& F(\text{tension})\\ &= m \cdot a + W \\ &= m \cdot (a + g)\\ &= 76\; \rm kg \times \left(1.3\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} + 9.8\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}\right)\\ &\approx 8.4\times 10^{2}\; \rm N\end{aligned}$ .

By Newton's Third Law of motion, Spiderman would exert a force of the same size on the strand of web. Hence, the size of the force in the strand of the web should be approximately $8.4\times 10^{2}\; \rm N$ (downwards.)

A balloon contains helium with a mass of 0.00296 g. What is the volume of helium in the balloon? (Note: Helium’s density is 0.00

Over [174]

Answer:

178 cm3

Explanation:

From definition of density, it is mass per unit volume of an object, expressed as density=mass/volume and making volume the subject of the above formula we have volume= mass/density and substituting 0.00296 g for mass and 0.00001663 g/cm3 for density then we have

Volume=0.00296/0.00001663

Volume is approximately 178 cm3

Answer:

$-\frac{1}{2}$

Diverging lens

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Power of lens = -2.0D

Unknown:

Focal length = ?

Solution:

The power of lens is the reciprocal of the focal length;

P = $\frac{1}{f}$

where f is the focal length

f = $\frac{1}{P}$ = $-\frac{1}{2}$

The lens is a diverging lens
