A 1-hectare field contains 2500 bean plants having a total leaf surface area of 557 m2. ambient temperature is 21°c, winds are
calm, and humidity is 45%. if each plant is transpiring at the average rate determined for treatment a in 6 above, how much water is lost from the field each hour due to transpiration? show your calculation in the space below. _____________________________________________

Answer:
The field losses a total of 55.814 litres of water in an hour.
Explanation:
As the complete question is not given here, the average rate of water loss is not given here which is found in normal conditions as 1.67 mL/m2.
Now the average rate of water loss per minute is 1.67 mL/m2
So the average rate of water loss per minute for 557 m2 is 1.67*557=930.19 mL
So 930.19 mL of water is lost from the field in 1 minute, for the calculation of water lost in an hour, the value is given as 60*930.19 =55811.4 mL or 55.814 litres.

Answer:
1) 0.51 seconds.
2) 1.45 m/s.
Explanation:
given, height from which cat falls = 1.3 m
we know that, s = ut + at².
here if we consider cat moment only in downward direction,
intial velocity of cat in downward direction , u = 0.
so, time, t = .
⇒ t = = 0.51 seconds.
t = 0.51 seconds.
now, consider cat moment only in forward direction
s = ut , since acceleration is zero in forward direction
⇒ u = .
so, u = = 1.45 m/s .
