Suppose that you needed to make a pen for some small animals. You have 12 m of fencing. You decide to make a circular pen, becau

se if you wish to enclose an area using a given length of fencing, then a circular fence encloses a larger area than a fence of any other shape. What is the radius r of the pen? Express your answer in meters to four significant figures.

Answer:

1.909 m

Explanation:

Length of fence = 12 m

r = Radius of circle made by the provided fence

Cirumference of a circle is given by

C=2\pi r

The circumference of the circle will be equal to the length of the fence

2\pi r=12

\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{12}{2\pi}

\\\Rightarrow r=1.909\ m

The radius of the fence is 1.909 m

Classify each possible hypothesis about a medicinal aloe vera plant as falsifiable or non-falsifiable.
pychu [463]

Answer:

Aloe vera is a succulent plant species ( with fleshy water storing tissue) belonging to the genus Aloe.

It is used in many products ( including beverages, cosmetic products as gel, medicinal ointments). Its juice is quite bitter in taste. It is known to be the best skin moisturizer and can be used for healing wounds by enhancing the renewal of damaged cells. It is also used as an anticarcinogen, thus reduces the chances of cancer.

Thus, the given hypothesis can be classified as  falsifiable ( which is proven wrong) or non-falsifiable ( which is proven right) in the following way-

Falsifiable-

Aloe vera juice tastes  better than carrot juice.

Non Falsifiable-

Aloe vera gel is the best  natural skin moisturizer.

Aloe vera gel can heal  wounds by boosting  cell renewal.

Drinking aloe juice can  reduce the risk of lung  cancer.

Describe in terms of kinetic and potential energy what happens if an apple falls from a tree and comes to rest on the ground( wr
Lunna [17]

Answer:

An apple hanging at a branch has potential energy due its position. It can be written as PE= mgh where m is the mass of the apple h is the distance between the apple and the ground and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

as the apple falls from the tree it loses its potential energy and gains kinetic energy due to the movement of the apple. Its kinetic energy will be given by KE= 1/2mv²  where m is the mass of the apple and v is the speed with which the apple falls.

As the apple falls the height or the distance reduces and PE becomes reduces. But it gains Kinetic energy due to its speed.

But when the apple falls to the ground and comes to rest its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.

thus the total energy remains the same. it changes from one form to the other but remains unaltered.

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Hypermetropia (better known as Farsighted- this is why nearby objects seem blurry for him)

2) In such instances, image are typically formed farther from the near point

3) Such defects are quite common so there are common procedures such as using convex lens which can restore the sight to normal.
