Answer:

hyoid bone

Explanation:

Woodpeckers have a special bone that acts like a seat-belt for its skull. It's called the hyoid bone, and it wraps all the way around a woodpecker's skull. Every time the bird pecks, the hyoid acts like a seat-belt for the bird's skull and the delicate brain it protects.

How much energy was released if rocket hydrogen fuel was burnt ?

suter [353]

When ignited, the gas mixture converts to water vapor and releases energy, which sustains the reaction: 241.8 kJ of energy (LHV) for every mole of H2 burned.” A mole of hydrogen weighs 2 grams. So, this is a LHV (lower heating value) of 120.9 kJ/gram of hydrogen when heat of vaporization is subtracted.

If you use the same force to push a motorcycle as you would push a bike which one would have more acceleration and why explain u

zaharov [31]

Answer:

The bike would have more acceleration

Explanation:

Accourding to newtons first law a force is equal to its mass multiplied by its acceleration (f=ma) therefore an object with a higher mass compared to an object with a lower mass would experience less acceleration.

Eg.

F=50N

Motorbike M=200kg

F=ma

50=200 x a

50/200=a

0.25m/s/s =a

Bike M=35kg

F=ma

50=35 x a

50/35= a

1.43m/s/s=a
