dimaraw [331]

Answer:

bounce up and down

Explanation:

Buoys are used for two main reasons, one is to let the people on land know of a big incoming wave, while the second reason is to generate electricity. When a big wave is approaching the buoy starts to bounce up and down with the strength of the smalled previous waves and then bounce very strongly up as the bigger wave passes by. This movement is combined with pistons within the buoy in order to conduct electricity.

Suppose you were marooned on a tropical island and had to use seawater (density 1.10 g·cm3) to make a primitive barometer. what
Paul [167]

We know that P = hρg

Where:

P - pressure Pa,

h - height in meter,

ρ – would be the density in kg / m^3; and

g - acceleration due to gravity is m / s^2


p = hρg if h = 0.735 meter, ρ = 13600 kg / meter^3, g = 10 meter/ sec^2

p = 0.735*13600*10 = 99960 Pa or 

P = 1 x 10^5 Pa



Now with sea water if we have to make a barometer:

ρ = 1100 kg / meter^3 (given) 

P = hρg if we put the value of P calculated and the value of ρ = 1100 kg / meter^3 given, we will 

get, 1 x 10^5 = h*1100*10


therefore, h = 9.09 meter or 29.82 feet of water.

<span>3. The attempt at a solution So basically what I did was divided into components. x: (3)(2000) = (3000)*v_x y: (v_vw)*(10000) = (3000)*v_y v_x, v_y is the velocity (after collision) in the x and y direction, respectively, of both cars stuck together (since it is an inelastic collision). v_vw is the initial velocity of the Volkswagen. Now what I did was that the angle is 35 degrees north of east. So basically made a triangle and figured that tan(35) = (v_y)/(v_x). This means (v_x)*(tan35) = v_y. Then, I simplified the component equations to get: x: 2 = v_x y: v_vw = 3*v_y Then plugging in for v_y, I got: v_vw = 3(2)(tan35) = 4.2 m/s as the velocity of the volkswagen. However, the answer key says 8.6 m/s. Could someone please help me out? Thanks Phys.org - latest science and technology news stories on Phys.org • Game over?

According to the pressure-flow hypothesis, why must sieve-tube elements in phloem be living cells?
Zigmanuir [339]
Base from the pressure-flow hypothesis, the sieve tube in the phloem should be living cells because sugars are transported across the membranes by the active transport which needs ATP that is produced during respiration. Hope this helps.
