The positively charged atmosphere attracts negatively charged spider silk, might electrostatic force play in spider dispersal, according to a recent study.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The positive charge present in upper of the atmosphere and the negative charge on planet’s surface. During cloudless skies days, the air possesses a voltage of nearly around 100 volts for each and every meter from above the ground.

Ballooning spiders process within this planetary electric field. When their silk relieve their bodies then it picks up a negative charge. This oppose the similar negative charges on the surfaces on which the spiders settles and create sufficient force to lift them into the air. And spiders can hike those forces by climbing onto blades of grass,twigs, or leaves.

a person exerts a force of 55 n on the end of a door 74 cm wide. what is the magnitude of the torque if the force is exerted?
ratelena [41]

Answer: Torque T = 40.7 Nm

Explanation:

Torque or turning effect is the rotational equivalent of linear force, i.e moment of force about a point.

Given that the force is applied perpendicular to the edge (angle 90°)

Torque can be represented by T;

T = FrSin∅ = Fr ( sin90 = 1)

T = force × distance

T = F × r

F = 55N

r = 74cm = 0.74m

T = 55N × 0.74m

T = 40.7 Nm

How could you prove that
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

An unconformity shows where some rock layers have been lost because of erosion. To date rock layers, geologists first give a relative age to a layer of rock at one location and then give the same age to matching layers at other locations. Certain fossils, called index fossils, help geologists match rock layers.
