Why are some animals and plants can become pests when introduced into Australia

Yanka [14]

<span>Plants there are a lot. Australian plants are extremely hardy an have adapted to grow in conditions others have not. So when taken outside of Australia they do very, very well. Animals, less so. But there are a few very interesting cases.

Biologists use ball-and-stick models to study complex molecules by representing atoms with balls and bonds with sticks. DNA is a

AleksAgata [21]

One of the major limitations of using the ball and stick model for DNA, is that within a single double stranded segment of DNA, one would have to use many many balls to represent atoms that are present in the sugar phosphate backbone, along with all of the main atoms that compose the nitrogenous bases of DNA, we also cannot construct or show the helical form of DNA, by using balls and sticks as well.

Is it possible to have a net torque when all of the forces sum to zero? Explain.

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Yes it is possible

Explanation:

When two equal magnitude forces are acting on the rod in opposite direction

Then the net force on the system is always zero in that case

so we will have

$F - F = 0$

now for the system net torque due to these forces is given by

$\tau = F(r_1) + F(r_2)$

here we know that

$r_1, r_2$ = distance of the forces from reference about which torque is measured

so here we can say that net force is zero on the system while torque is not zero

in all such case object will rotate about a fixed position with change angular speed

What measures the distance between two consecutive crests of a wave?

Marina86 [1]

Answer A is incorrect
A crest is just one point. It is not the distance between 2 crests.

B is incorrect
A trough is just 1 point. It is not the distance between 2 troughs.

C is incorrect.
the amplitude measures the height of a crest from the middle of the wave to the crest (or trough).

D is the correct answer. That is the distance between 2 crests or 2 troughs

A 1400 kg car is traveling east on the highway at 31 m/s and collides into the rear of a slower moving pickup truck of 2400 kg,

zloy xaker [14]

Answer: 31 m/s due east

Explanation: this question can be solved using the law of conservation of linear momentum.

This law states that in a closed or isolated system, during collision, the vector sum of momentum before collision equals the vector sum of momentum after collision.

Momentum = mass × velocity

From our question, our parameters before collision are given below as

Mass of car = mc = 1400kg

Speed of car =vc = 31 m/s (due east)

Mass of truck = mt = 2400kg

Velocity of truck = vt = 25 m/s ( due east )

After collision

Velocity of car = ?

Velocity of truck = 34 m/s ( due east )

Vector sum of momentum before collision is given as

1400 (31) + 2400 (25) = 43400 + 60000 = 103400 kgm/s

After collision the truck is seen to move faster (v = 34 m/s) which implies that the car also moves due east .

1400 (v) + 2400(25) .... A positive value is between both momenta because they are in the same direction.

After collision, we have that

1400v + 60000

Vector sum of momentum before collision = vector sum of momentum after collision

103400 = 1400v + 60000

103400 - 60000 = 1400v

43400 = 1400v

v = 43400/ 1400

v = 31 m/s due east
