<span>Extremely powerful single waves have no effect on ships at sea since the depth of water allows the energy to be distributed over hundreds and thousands of feet. In deep water, the bigger the wave, the faster it moves and the slower the surface changes height. As the wave gets into shallow waters, it slows down and can start to pile up to large heights.</span>

How do Leeuwenhoek’s observations of animalcules compare to Hooke’s observations of cells in the cork?
fomenos

Answer:

Robert Hooke

Was the first to use the word "cell"

Observed cork cells

Anton van Leeuwenhoek

Observed "animalcules"

Used polished lens .

Explanation:

Anton van Leeuwenhoek is known as father of microbiology. He is credited to improve the quality of lens in microscope. His first observation of organisms called animalcules.

He is credited to have build microscope that could get magnified by 200 times. He used word animalcules for small organisms from pond water when first observed in microscope. He discovered protozoa and named it animalcules".

Robert Hooke is famed for discovering cell from a cork of plant. He observed a compartment or honey comb like divisions when observed these cork cells under the microscope and named it cell. He was only able to see the cell wall as the cork cells are dead cells.

Suppose a piece of food is on the edge of a rotating microwave oven plate. Does it experience nonzero tangential acceleration, c
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Explanation:

(a) When the plate starts to spin:

Its angular velocity increases, so the angular acceleration is non zero. As the direction of velocity keeps on changing every instant so the linear acceleration is also non zero.

(b) When the plate rotates at constant angular velocity:

Its angular velocity is constant so the angular acceleration is zero. As the direction of velocity keeps on changing every instant so the linear acceleration is also non zero.

(c) When the plate sows to halt:

Its angular velocity decreases, so the angular acceleration is non zero( but negative). As the direction of velocity keeps on changing every instant so the linear acceleration is also non zero.

The joule is an example of units of work. Which of the following is not a valid unit of work? ft-lb (kg-m2)/s2 inch-ton lb/s2
Dahasolnce [82]

The "<em>lb/s² </em>" is not a valid unit of work.

Each of the others is (a unit of force) x (a unit of distance) which is pretty much the definition of work.

5) More heat will flow outside on a cold day because of:
Softa [21]

Hotter things have more heat energy than colder things. That's because the atoms or molecules move around faster in hot things (red, right) than they do in cold things (blue, left). This idea is called the kinetic theory.
