<span>Organelles which are very important in giving nutrients. During cellular respiration, the food molecules such as glucose, are oxidized to carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) and trapped in ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) form for further us of cell’s activities. ATP’s are formed at mitochondria – the cell’s powerhouse. This type of organelle takes and breaks nutrients absorbed by the cell and creates energy afterward. The energy from ATP is then used by the body in kinetic activities like running & walking or involuntary activities like breathing, blood circulation, stimulus-responding, etc.</span>

A tree loses water to the air by the process of transpiration at the rate of 110 g/h. This water is replaced by the upward flow

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

The answer is 1.87nm/s.

Explanation:

The $110g/hr$ water loss must be replaced by $110g/hr$ of sap. 110g of sap corresponds to a volume of

$110g \div \dfrac{1040*10^3g}{1*10^6cm^3} = 106cm^3$

thus rate of sap replacement is

$106cm^3/hr = 106*10^{-6}m^3/3600s = 2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s$

The volume of sap in the vessel of length $x$ is

$V = Ax$ ,

where $A$ is the cross sectional area of the vessel.

For 2000 such vessels, the volume is

$V = 2000Ax$

taking the derivative of both sides we get:

$\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 2000A \dfrac{dx}{dt}$

on the left-hand-side $\dfrac{dx}{dt}$ is the velocity $v$ of the sap, and on right-hand-side $\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s$ ; therefore,

$2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s=2000Av$

and since the cross-sectional area is

$A = \pi (\dfrac{100*10^{-3}m}{2} )^2 = 7.85*10^{-3}m^2$ ;

therefore,

$2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s =2000(7.85*10^{-3}m^2)v$

solving for $v$ we get:

$v = \dfrac{2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s}{2000(7.85*10^{-3}m^2)}$

$\boxed{v =1.875*10^{-9}m/s = 1.875nm/s}$

which is the upward speed of the sap in each vessel.

Why does the number of dwarf planets recognized by astronomers in the solar system sometimes increase?

gregori [183]

Because sometimes it happens that they discover a dwarf planet
that nobody ever knew about before. When that happens, they
ADD the new one to the list of known dwarf planets, and then the
total number of dwarf planets on the list increases by 1 .

(a) The object moves with uniform velocity from A to B.

(b) The object moves with constant velocity from B to C.

<h3>Velocity of the object from point A to B</h3>

V(A to B) = (6 - 0)/(4 - 0) = 1.5 m/s

<h3>Velocity of the object from point B to C</h3>

V(B to C) = (6 - 6)/(11 - 4) = 0 m/s

<h3>Velocity of the object from point C to D</h3>

V(C to D) = (7 - 6)/(12 - 11) = 1 m/s

final velocity = 1 + 1.5 m/s = 2.5 m/s

Thus, we can conclude the following;

The object moves with uniform velocity from A to B.

The object moves with constant velocity from B to C.

The object moves with increasing velocity from C to D.
