Not sure this is a physics question (probably biology).
Anyway, the correct answer is A):
"Plasticity helps us to adapt to our environment. It also generally decreases with age".
Plasticity is the ability to adapt to the environment. Since this ability is linked with brain functions, and brain functions worsen with age, then plasticity decreases with age.
Answer:
Explanation:
A )
speed of swimming in still water is given by the expression
distance / time
= 50 / 25
= 2 m /s
In lane 1 , 1.2 cm/s current is flowing in the direction that the swimmers are going so swimmers will cover distance at the rate of 2 + 1.2 = 3.2 m /s.
time to cover distance of 50 m in lane 1
= distance / speed
= 50 / 3.2 = 15.625 s
In lane 8 , 1.2 cm/s current is flowing against the direction that the swimmers are going so swimmers will cover distance at the rate of 2 - 1.2 = .8 m /s.
time to cover distance of 50 m in lane 1
= distance / speed
= 50 / .8 = 62.5 s
Answer:
0.75 m³/s
Explanation:
Applying,
Q = vA.................... Equation 1
Where Q = flow rate of the water, v = velocity of the water, A = area of the pipe.
From the question,
Given: v = 2.5 m/s, A = 0.3 m²
Substitute these values into equation 1
Q = 2.5(0.3)
Q = 0.75 m³/s
Hence the flow rate of water in the pipe is 0.75 m³/s
