Answer:

This demonstrates Newton's Third Law because for every action there is an equal and opposite force.

Explanation:

The cat's paw hitting her toy string would be an action therefore when is swings to and from her it it creating and equal and opposite force. In other words, the cat hits it and when the string comes back to her it's coming back the same force just opposite of the direction she hit.

Describe the differences among ultraviolet waves, visible light waves, and infrared waves. how are these waves alike?

sergeinik [125]

Our eyes are detectors which are designed to detect visible light waves (or visible radiation). ... The electromagnetic spectrum includes gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet, visible, infrared, microwaves, and radio waves. The only difference between these different types of radiation is their wavelength or frequency.

Drosera magnifica is an organism that was first discovered in 2015.

mestny [16]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Plantae.

Explanation:

Drosera m<em>agnifica</em> is discovered in 2015 for the first time and the characteristics this organism's cell shows are -

- permanent vacuoles

- surrounded by cellulose layer

Vacuoles are present in both Plantae and Animalia kingdom of the eukaryotic organism but in animal cells, there are small and numerous vacuoles present and they are not permanent whereas in plant cells vacuoles are present permanently.

The cell of an animal cell has no surrounding layer other than cell membrane while in the plant cell there is a supporting and protecting layer of cellulose cell wall present.

On the basis of the given characteristics, it is confirmed that the Drosera magnifica belongs to Plantae kingdom.

Assume that at sea-level the air pressure is 1.0 atm and the air density is 1.3 kg/m3.

scoundrel [369]

Answer

Pressure, P = 1 atm

air density, ρ = 1.3 kg/m³

a) height of the atmosphere when the density is constant

Pressure at sea level = 1 atm = 101300 Pa

we know

P = ρ g h

$h = \dfrac{P}{\rho\ g}$

$h = \dfrac{101300}{1.3\times 9.8}$

h = 7951.33 m

height of the atmosphere will be equal to 7951.33 m

b) when air density decreased linearly to zero.

at x = 0 air density = 0

at x= h ρ_l = ρ_sl

assuming density is zero at x - distance

$\rho_x = \dfrac{\rho_{sl}}{h}\times x$

now, Pressure at depth x

$dP = \rho_x g dx$

$dP = \dfrac{\rho_{sl}}{h}\times x g dx$

integrating both side

$P = g\dfrac{\rho_{sl}}{h}\times \int_0^h x dx$

$P =\dfrac{\rho_{sl}\times g h}{2}$

now,

$h=\dfrac{2P}{\rho_{sl}\times g}$

$h=\dfrac{2\times 101300}{1.3\times 9.8}$

h = 15902.67 m

height of the atmosphere is equal to 15902.67 m.

Alvin (DSV-2) is a manned deep-ocean research submersible owned by the United States Navy and operated by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) in Woods Hole, Massachusetts. The vehicle was built by General Mills' Electronics Group[2] in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Named to honor the prime mover and creative inspiration for the vehicle, Allyn Vine, Alvin was commissioned on 5 June 1964. The submersible is launched from the deep submergence support vessel RV Atlantis (AGOR-25), which is also owned by the U.S. Navy and operated by WHOI. The submersible has made more than 4,400 dives, carrying two scientists and a pilot, to observe the lifeforms that must cope with super-pressures
