A swarm of locust eats the leaves of most of the trees in a forest. How would the trees be most directly affected?

Physics

Sphinxa [80]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A trees food and air source would be deprived because of this. Trees need leaves to perform photosynthesis, so besides their roots soaking up water and nutrients, they wouldn't have any other form of food until those leaves grow back. If they don't and the locusts continue to eat up the tree, it will eventually starve and die.

Explanation:

Imagine the trees trunk and roots as your body and the leaves as your mouth/food source. God Forbid you catch a cold or some sickness. You probably won't have the appetite to eat. Despite that, you'll still have to. But, if you get so sick to the point that eating just makes you throw it up before your body can take in the nutrients and beneficial stuff, you will eventually get to the point where eating is nearly impossible. This will lead up to the sickness taking over your body, as there's no energy going in to help it fight it off, and you would die.

(Gah, sorry for the dark theme... didn't think it would turn like that lol)

Anyways, hope this helped!

What is the momentum of a man of mass 10kg when he walks with a uniform velocity of 2m/s.
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Momentum(p) = 20kgm/s

Explanation:

Given

Mass = 10kg

Velocity = 2m/s

Required

Calculate the momentum of the man

Momentum is calculated as thus

Momentum(p) = Mass(m) * Velocity(v)

or

p = mv

So; to solve this question; we simply substitute 10kg for mass and 2m/s for velocity in the above formula;

The formula becomes

Momentum(p) = 10kg * 2m/s

Momentum(p) = 10 * 2 * kg * m/s

Momentum(p) = 20kgm/s

Hence, the momentum of the man is 20kgm/s

A car traveling 34 mi/h accelerates uniformly for 4 s, covering 615 ft in this time. What was its acceleration? Round your answe
Contact [7]

Answer:

51.94 ft/s²

257.63 ft/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 4 s

u = Initial velocity = 34 mi/h

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement = 615 ft

a = Acceleration

Converting velocity to ft/s

34\ mi/h=\frac{34\times 5280}{3600}=49.87\ ft/s

Equation of motion

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow a=2\frac{s-ut}{t^2}\\\Rightarrow a=2\left(\frac{615-49.87\times 4}{4^2}\right)\\\Rightarrow a=51.94\ ft/s^2

Acceleration is 51.94 ft/s²

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=49.87+51.94\times 4\\\Rightarrow v=257.63\ ft/s

Final velocity at this time is 257.63 ft/s

If, while standing on the bank of a stream, you wished to spear a fish swimming in the water out in front of you, would you aim
Serggg [28]

Answer:

<em>a) below the observed position</em>

<em>b) directly at the observed position</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

If I'm standing on the bank of a stream, and I wish to spear a fish swimming in the water out in front of me, I would aim below the observed fish to make a direct hit. This is because the phenomenon of refraction of light in water causes the light coming from the fish is refract away from the normal as it passes  into the air and into my eyes.

If I'm to zap the fish with a taser, I would aim directly at the observed fish because the laser (a form of concentrated light waves) will refract into the water, taking the same path the light from the fish took to get to my eyes.
