Foods that allow microorganisms to grow are called parasites. true or false

1 answer:

8 0

False. Foods that are improperly stored become what is known as a growth medium for microorganisms. These foods can be dangerous to humans and animals, and while they may cause an internal parasite to be able to grow, such as a tape worm, they are not in and of themselves parasites. Parasites are an organism that feeds off of, or is parasitic, and sustains life from another living organism. Such as a flea feeding off the blood of a dog or cat.

8. John has to hit a bottle with a ball to win a prize. He throws a 0.4 kg ball with a velocity of 18 m/s. It hits a 0.2 kg bott

nasty-shy [4]

Answer: The ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the bottle.

Explanation:

To calculate the speed of ball after the collision, we use the equation of law of conservation of momentum, which is given by:

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

where,

$m_1,u_1\text{ and }v_1$ are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of ball.

$m_2,u_2\text{ and }v_2$ are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of bottle.

We are given:

$m_1=0.4kg\\u_1=18m/s\\v_1=?m/s\\m_2=0.2kg\\u_2=0m/s\\v_2=25m/s$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$(0.4\times 18)+(0.2\times 0)=(0.4\times v_1)+(0.2\times 25)\\\\v_1=5.5m/s$

Hence, the ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the bottle.

How does the size of arctic foxes ears help to keep them warm in a cold environment

DochEvi [55]

artic foxes have thick white fur to keep them warm and also for camouflage in the snow they have small ears to keep the snow out of their ears so that they can hear better they also have thick fur lining and a thick pad on their feet this stops the paws from getting cold and they have short legs so then the body weight can be spread making it easier for the animal to not sink in the snow in the summer the artic fox turns brown to help make the fox invisible when people are hunting in the long grass

Suppose that two objects attract each other with a gravitational force of 16 units. If the distance between the two objects is r

Naddik [55]

Explanation:

Fgravity = G*(mass1*mass2)/D²

G is the gravitational constant throughout the universe.

D is the distance between both objects.

D is now reduced by a factor of 5, meaning Dnew = D/5 we get

Fgravitynew = G*(mass1*mass2)/(D/5)² =

= G*(mass1*mass2)/(D²/25) =

= 25* G*(mass1*mass2)/D² = 25* Fgravity

the new force of gravity/attraction is 25×16 = 400 units.
