Answer:

The correct answer is option A. "tension force".

Explanation:

Suspension bridges, like the Golden Gate Bridge or the Brooklyn Bridge, use tension force as the primary source of force that cables use to hold their spans up. The supporting cables receive the tension forces of the bridge, and this same force passes to the anchorages and into the ground. This equilibrium that the tension force gives among the different elements of the bridge, gives the support to hold the bridge together.

Answer:

A. Tension force

Explanation:

These are bridges that use cables to hold the road way up.

The cables in a suspension bridge receive the tension force of the bridge. These cables transmit these forces to the towers supporting the bridge and are compressed into the ground.

American eels (Anguilla rostrata) are freshwater fish with long, slender bodies that we can treat as a uniform cylinder 1.0 m lo
madam [21]

Answer:

option D

Explanation:

given,

uniform length of cylinder = 1 m

diameter of the cylinder = 10 cm = 0.1 m

Eels have been recorded to spin = 14 rev/s

camera records at = 120 frames per second

time = \dfrac{1}{120}\ s/frame

angle at which eel rotate = ?

ω = 14 rev/s

ω = 14 x 2 π rad/s

ω = 28 π rad/s

angle at which eel rotate

 θ = ω t

θ = 28\pi\times \dfrac{1}{120}

θ = 0.733 rad

θ =0.733 \times \dfrac{180^0}{2\pi}

θ =42^0

Hence, the correct answer is option D

Match the labeled parts of the cell to their functions. Packages and transports materials out of the cell: Breaks down sugar to
Licemer1 [7]

The parts of the cell are mitochondria, lysosomes, ribosomes etc. Their functions are as follows :

(1) Vesicle is a one of the large structure within the cell. Its function is to transfer materials out of the cell.

(2) Mitochondria is also called the power house of the cell. Its function is to break down sugar to supply energy for the cell.

(3) Lysosomes are the suicidal bag of the cell. It breaks down waste and other materials of the cell.

(4) Endoplasmic reticulum helps to produce, process and transport proteins in vesicles to the Golgi apparatus.
