<h2>Answer: Transpiration </h2>

Vegetal transpiration is the loss of water in the form of vapor, in the plant through its different parts, especially its leaves.

In this process, soil water is absorbed by the roots of the plant and transported in liquid form to the leaves to be converted into water vapor, while a part is used in photosynthesis. That is why vegetal transpiration is considered a vital function in the photosynthesis process.

This is possible because the leaves have small pores that allow water to escape into the atmosphere in the form of vapor and absorb carbon dioxide. Then, most of the water in the plants is used in the process of transpiration and only a small percentage is retained in liquid state and used for its growth and storage.

Reil [10]

Explanation:

Relation between potential energy and charge is as follows.

U = qV

or, $\Delta U = q \times \Delta V$

= $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 70 \times 10^{-3}$

= $112 \times 10^{-22}$ J

or, = $1.12 \times 10^{20} J$

Therefore, we can conclude that change in the electrical potential energy $\Delta U$ is $1.12 \times 10^{20} J$ .

True conditions

Efficiency of Heat Exchanger are as below:

the heat exchange process between two fluids with different temperatures using solid walls occurs in various engineering applications. The tool to achieve this exchange is a heat exchanger. Some applications like air conditioning, power generation, waste heat recovery, and chemical processing use this device.

The basis of the work of a heat exchanger is that the hot fluid enters the heat exchanger at temperature T1 and its heat capacity is Chot. Also, the cold fluid with the heat capacity of Ccold enters temperature t1; in the meantime, the hot fluid loses its heat, and its temperature drops to T2. It delivers heat to the cold fluid to increase its temperature to t2 and leave the heat exchanger at this temperature.

If the mass of a

mixer [17]

Answer:

The final acceleration becomes (1/3) of the initial acceleration.

Explanation:

The second law of motion gives the relationship between the net force, mass and the acceleration of an object. It is given by :

$F=ma$

m = mass

a = acceleration

According to given condition, if the mass of a sliding block is tripled while a constant net force is applied. We need to find how much does the acceleration decrease.

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$
