Vascular tissue is responsible for transporting water and nutrients in plants.The Vascular tissue consists of the Xylem and the Phloem. The main function of the Xylem is to transport water and minerals throughout all parts of the plant. Phloem on the other hand is responsible for transporting organic molecules that are larger in size. The vascular system, consisting on the Xylem and the Phloem runs from the roots of the plats through the branches and upto the leaves. It controls the total transportation of the water and nutrients.
<span>The long tubes that carry water and sugar from the leaves to the rest of the plat are known as phloem. The Xylem on the other hand carries water and small minerals from the root through the branches to the leaves for producing glucose and oxygen. The xylem and phloem are two most important parts of plants that are required for the survival of the plant. Water is mainly carried by the Xylem but some amount of water goes through the phloem for transporting the glucose that is manufactured. The process of photosynthesis is highly dependent on Xylem and Phloem.<span> </span></span>

If the labor force of 155 million people is growing by 1.0 percent per year, how many new jobs have to be created each month to
dybincka [34]

First let us compute for the total growth in population.

Growth = 155 million * 0.01

Growth = 1.55 million

 

Since there are 12 months in a year, therefore the new jobs every month should be:

new jobs per month = 1.55 million / 12

<span>new jobs per month = 0.129 million = 129,167 </span>

Power is the rate of work that is done per time. Work is calculated from the product of force and the displacement. So, by using the definition of power and work, we can relate power with force, displacement and the time. We do as follows:

Power = Work / time
Power = Force x displacement / time
Power = 21 N (9 m) / 3 s
Power = 63 J /s = 63 W

A farmer plans to build a rectangular garden in back of his house so that he only needs fencing on 3 sides of the garden. if he
kogti [31]

Answer:

90 feet

Explanation:

The farmer wants the second side of the garden to be 30 feet longer than the back of his house.

If the back of his house=x ft

The second side=(x+30) ft

Note that the farmer does not fence the side on the back of the house.

Area of the garden = 400 square feet

Area of a Rectangle= Length X Width

400 = x(x+30)

x^2+30x-400=0\\x^2+40x-10x-400=0\\x(x+40)-10(x+40)=0\\(x+40)(x-10)=0\\

x+40=0 or x-10=0

x=-40 or x=10

Since length cannot be negative, x=10 ft

The Length of the Fencing the farmer will buy will be the perimeter of the three sides.

Perimeter of the three sides = x+(x+30)+(x+30)

                                            =3x+60

                                            =3(10)+60=90 ft

The farmer needs to buy a fencing of length 90 feet.

How far apart must two protons be if the electrical force acting on either one is equal to its weight on the earth's surface whe
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

G M m / R^2 = F   force of attraction for proton

K e^2 / r^2 = F     force of attraction between 2 protons

G M m / R^2 = K e^2 / r^2

r^2 = K e^2 R^2 / (G M m)

r^2 = 9E9 * (1.6E-19)^2 * (6.37E6)^2 / (6.67E-11 * 5.98E24 * 1.7E-27)

r^2 = 9 * 2.56 * 40.6 / (6.67 * 5.98 * 1.7) * 10^-19

r^2 = 1.38 * 10^-30

r = 1.17E-15 m
