Answer:

Period, T = 27.84 seconds

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Length of pendulum = 2m

We know that acceleration due to gravity on earth is equal to 9.8 m/s²

To find the period of oscillation of the simple pendulum;

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

$Period, T = 2 \pi \sqrt {lg}$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Period, T = 2 * 3.142 * \sqrt {2*9.8}$

$Period, T = 6.284 * \sqrt {19.6}$

$Period, T = 6.284 * 4.43$

Period, T = 27.84 seconds

In some plants, the pistils don’t Form until a few days after the stamens do.How might this keep a plant from self pollinating

KATRIN_1 [288]

For a flower to be pollinated, pollen from an anther (which is located at the top of the stamen) needs to reach a stigma (at the top of the pistle.) Some plants are genetically capable of pollinating themselves if their own pollen reaches their own stigma; some plants are not capable of self pollination under any circumstances.

For plants that can genetically self pollinate, but would prefer not to, they can avoid this by having their pistil and pollen/stamens mature at different times. If the stamens mature first, the pollen will be dispersed by animals or wind or whatever dispersal mechanism it relies on. Then by the time the pistil is ready to be pollinated, there is no pollen left in that flower to land on the stigma.

Planets in our solar system do not revolve around the sun in perfect circles. Their orbits are more like ovals that scientists describe as elliptical. It is one of Kepler's laws. The sun is the focus of all the planets. The correct answer is D.
