Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Plants that grow among many tall trees in a dense forest could adapt so that they could get enough air and water through the following means:

1. By becoming climbers. Here they climb up the nearby trees to get more air and sunlight.

2. Plants grow leaves that have pointed tips. This allows the passage of water in the plant's leaves without causing damage.

3. Some plants grow as epiphytes, where they grow on big trees' canopy

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Jupiter is about 2.5 times the acceleration due to gravity on Earth’s surface.

Ann [662]

Answer: The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Weight = Mass × Acceleration

Let the mass of the space probe be m

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth = g

Weight of the space probe on earth = W

$W=m\times g$

Acceleration due to gravity on the Jupiter = g' = 2.5g

Weight of the space probe on earth = W'

$W'=mg'=m\times 2.5g$

$\frac{W'}{W}=\frac{m\times 2.5g}{m\times g}$

$W'=2.5\times W$

The weight of the space probe on the Jupiter will be 2.5 times the weight of the space probe on earth.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

How do materials, such as nutrients and waste, pass through the cell membrane?

Aleks04 [339]

Think of the cell membrane as a net and the nutrients are the perfect fit to fall through it. Where the waste is not the right size and will not fit through the holes of the net.

What average force is needed to accelerate a 7.00-gram pellet from rest to 155 m/s over a distance of 0.600 m along the barrel o

leonid [27]

Answer: The force needed is 140.22 Newtons.

Explanation:

The key assumption in this problem is that the acceleration is constant along the path of the barrel bringing the pellet from velocity 0 to 155 m/s. This means the velocity is linearly increasing in time.

The force exerted on the pellet is

F = m a

In order to calculate the acceleration, given the displacement d,

$d = \frac{1}{2}at^2\implies a=\frac{2d}{t^2}$

we will need to determine the time t it took for the pellet to make the distance through the barrel of 0.6m. That time can be determined using the average velocity of the pellet while traveling through the barrel. Since the velocity is a linear function of time, as mentioned above, the average is easy to calculate as:

$\overline{v}=\frac{1}{2}(v_{end}-v_{start})=\frac{1}{2}(155-0)\frac{m}{s}=77.5\frac{m}{s}$
