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

A client experiences difficulty in performing the prone iso-abs exercise. Which of the following should be suggested as an regre

butalik [34]

Answer:

a. Quadruped arm and opposite leg raise

Explanation:

Quadruped arm and opposite leg lift

- Kneel on the floor, lean forward and place your hands down.

- Keep your knees in line with your hips and hands directly under your shoulders.

- Simultaneously raise one arm and extend the opposite leg, so that they are in line with the spine.

- Go back to the starting position.

This method is usually used as an alternative to iso-abs exercise or also known as a bridge, which allows you to exercise the abdominal and spinal area at the same time.

It is also used together with other exercises for the treatment of hyperlordosis.

A particle's position is given by z(t) = −(6.50 m/s2)t2k for t ≥ 0. (Express your answer in vector form.) a. Find the particle's

blondinia [14]

Answer:

a) $z'(t) =v(t) = -13t$

Now we can replace the velocity for t=1.75 s

$v(1.75s) = -13*1.75 =-22.75 \frac{m}{s}$

For t = 3.0 s we have:

$v(3.0s) = -13*3.0 =-39 \frac{m}{s}$

b) $v_{avg}= \frac{z_f - z_i}{t_f -t_i}$

And we can find the positions for the two times required like this:

$z_f = z(3.0s) = -(6.5 \frac{m}{s^2}) (3.0s)^2=-58.5m$

$z_i = z(1.75s) = -(6.5 \frac{m}{s^2}) (1.75s)^2=-19.906m$

And now we can replace and we got:

$V_{avg}= \frac{-58.5 -(-19.906) m}{3-1.75 s}= -30.875 \frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The particle position is given by:

$z(t) = -(6.5 \frac{m}{s^2}) t^2, t\geq 0$

Part a

In order to find the velocity we need to take the first derivate for the position function like this:

$z'(t) =v(t) = -13t$

Now we can replace the velocity for t=1.75 s

$v(1.75s) = -13*1.75 =-22.75 \frac{m}{s}$

For t = 3.0 s we have:

$v(3.0s) = -13*3.0 =-39 \frac{m}{s}$

Part b

For this case we can find the average velocity with the following formula:

$v_{avg}= \frac{z_f - z_i}{t_f -t_i}$

And we can find the positions for the two times required like this:

$z_f = z(3.0s) = -(6.5 \frac{m}{s^2}) (3.0s)^2=-58.5m$

$z_i = z(1.75s) = -(6.5 \frac{m}{s^2}) (1.75s)^2=-19.906m$

And now we can replace and we got:

$V_{avg}= \frac{-58.5 -(-19.906) m}{3-1.75 s}= -30.875 \frac{m}{s}$

Choose the sources of gamma rays. Check all that apply.

harina [27]

Answer:

a. Stars all warm objects

c. Some unstable atomic nuclei

Explanation:

Gamma rays are photons of very high energy (beyond 100keV) enough to remove an electron from its orbit.

They have a very short wavelength, less than 5 meters from the peak, and can be produced by nuclear decay, especially in the breasts of massive stars at the end of life.

They were discovered by the French chemist Paul Villard (1860 to 1934).

While X-rays are produced by electronic transitions in general caused by the collision of an electron with an atom at high speed, gamma rays are produced by nuclear transitions.

Gamma rays produce damage similar to those caused by X-rays or ultraviolet rays (burns, cancer and genetic mutations).

The sources of gamma rays that we observe in the universe come from <u>massive stars (hypernovas) or some warm objects on the space</u> that end their lives by a gravitational collapse that leads to the formation of a neutron star or a black hole, as well as <u>unstable radioactive nuclei </u>that emit radiation gamma to reach its steady state.

Jason is taking a physical exam and has to do push ups for sixty seconds. He does 30 pushups in the sixty seconds. Each push up

Alexandra [31]

Answer: 2 seconds is the unit rate.

Explanation:

We know that Jason does 30 pushups in 60 seconds at a constant rate, and we know that each push up takes 2 seconds.

then, we can write this as 30 pushups/60 seconds = (1/2) pushups per second.

Here, two seconds represents the time needed to do one pushup, is the unit rate (this means that we need 2 seconds to have a unit "one pushup")
