Answer:

- increasing use of hybrid crops

- altering genes in DNA to create new plants

- developing disease or pest resistant crops

Explanation:

The use of genetic factors to influence the growth of a plant encompasses manipulating the genetic constituent (gene) of such plant.

For example,

- Increasing use of hybrid crops entails mating two pure bred plants based on a gene of interest responsible for a particular trait, to form a hybrid.

- Altering genes in DNA to create new plants is also a genetic factor as it has to with gene modification.

- developing disease or pest resistant crops means that the genetic make up of such plant has been modified to be resistant to pest/disease.

As an intern with an engineering firm, you are asked to measure the moment of inertia of a large wheel, for rotation about an ax

AysviL [449]

Answer:

$I=2.766\ kg.m^2$

Explanation:

We have:

diameter of the wheel, $d=0.88\ m$

weight of the wheel, $w_w=280\ N$

mass of hanging object to the wheel, $m_o=6.32\ kg$

speed of the hanging mass after the descend, $v_o=4\ m.s^{-1}$

height of descend, $h=2.5\ m$

(a)

moment of inertia of wheel about its central axis:

$I=\frac{1}{2} m.r^2$

$I=\frac{1}{2} \frac{w_w}{g}.r^2$

$I=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{280}{9.8}\times 0.44^2$

$I=2.766\ kg.m^2$

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

First you need to find the initial x component which is 13.02. After that you plug it into the 3rd formula on the AP physics formula sheet. Then rearrange it into the quadratic formula and solve for time. The answer should be 4.1 seconds.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

The lemon trees will always be the same so they are the constants. The independent variable is the water amount because it is changing. The dependent variable is the amount of lemons because it is the variable being tested. (If we change the amount of water how many lemons will be produced?)
