The part of a river that would have animals with muscular bodies and adaptations that let survive in turbulent water is in the transition zone, the mid-transition zone to be precise. Water at the source zone possesses a lot of potential energy and as it flows from the upper reaches the potential energy is turned into kinetic energy when the course of the river begins to gradually level out and this translates into increase in velocity. By the time river water reaches the middle of the transition zone, most of the potential energy would have been turned into kinetic energy and thus water velocity would be quite high here. Animals living here would develop muscles because of constantly fighting against the strong current to avoid being swept downstream.

The verified answer here is incorrect, same with a lot of other verified answers. The correct answer here is the Source Zone :

At the headwaters, a stream or river is usually shallow and cold. It is also swiftly flowing because of the hilly land. At this point, the stream is not very productive because it lacks the nutrients to support a large population of plankton.

The Sun appears at an angle of 48.4° above the horizontal as viewed by a dolphin swimming underwater. What angle does the sunlig
Luden [163]

Answer:

4.57 degree

Explanation:

As the dolphin is under water, so the angle is angle of refraction which is equal to 48.4 degree.

refractive index of water, n = 1.333

Let the angle of incidence which is the angle between the incident ray and the normal is i.

By use of Snell's law

n = \frac{Sin i}{Sin r}

1.333 = \frac{Sin i}{Sin 48.4}

Sin i = 1.333\times Sin 48.4 = 0.9968

i = 85.43 degree

Angle made with the horizon = 90 - 85.43 = 4.57 degree

A disk of radius 10 cm is pulled along a frictionless surface with a force of 16 N by a string wrapped around the edge. At the i
drek231 [11]

Answer:

t = 0.2845Nm (rounded to 4 decimal places)

Explanation:

The disk rotates at a distance of an arc length of 28cm

Arc length = radius × central angle × π/180

28cm = 10cm × central angle × π/180

Central angle = \frac{28}{10} × 180/π ≈ 160.4°

Torque (t) = rFsin(central angle) , where F is the applied force

Radius in meters = 10/100 = 0.1m

t = 0.1m × 16N × sin160.4°

t = 0.2845Nm (rounded to 4 decimal places)

You are given two rectangular blocks of shiny metal, Block A and Block B, and are asked to determine which one will float in a b
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of block A = 10 x 6 x 1 = 60 cm³

Mass of block A = 630 g

density of mass A = mass / density

= 630 / 60 = 10.5g / cm³

Volume of block B = 5 x 5 x 3 = 75 cm³

Mass of block A = 604 g

density of mass A = mass / density

= 604 / 75 = 8.05 g / cm³

Since density of both A and B are less than that of mercury , both will float in mercury.
