Answer:

C Restoring Force

Explanation:

Given data

Fs=-kx

According to Hokes Law, provided the elasticity of an elastic material is not exceeded the extension xis directly proportion to the applied force F

From the expression, F represent the Restoring Force in Newton

HELP!!! What role might electrostatic force play in spider dispersal, according to a recent study?
Marat540 [252]

The positively charged atmosphere attracts negatively charged spider silk, might electrostatic force play in spider dispersal, according to a recent study.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The positive charge present in upper of the atmosphere and the negative charge on planet’s surface. During cloudless skies days, the air possesses a voltage of nearly around 100 volts for each and every meter from above the ground.

Ballooning spiders process within this planetary electric field. When their silk relieve their bodies then it picks up a negative charge. This oppose the similar negative charges on the surfaces on which the spiders settles and create sufficient force to lift them into the air. And spiders can hike those forces by climbing onto blades of grass,twigs, or leaves.

A 17-car train standing on the siding is started in motion by the train’s engine. 9 cm slack is between each of the cars, which
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

4 seconds

Explanation:

There are links between cars, they are in between

1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5, 5-6, 6-7, 7-8, 8-9, 9-10, 10-11, 11-12, 12-13, 13-14, 14-15, 15-16, 16-17.

Here 1 represents the first car which is firmly attached to the engine. So, there are 16 links and each link has a slack of 9 m.

So, total slack

9×16 = 144 cm

Speed of train = 36 cm/s

\text{Time taken by the pulse}=\frac{Length}{speed}\\\Rightarrow \text{Time taken by the pulse}=\frac{144}{36}\\\Rightarrow \text{Time taken by the pulse}=4\ s

Time taken by the pulse to travel the length of train is 4 seconds.

As the population in a small town grows, a new water treatment plant is built. The plant is built on a local river where it can
abruzzese [7]

Treatment water from the plant would affects the communities present in the downstream of the river.

Answer: Option (a)

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wastewater treatment plant is a process used to treat the water that flows from the rivers, streams, and lakes.This plant removes the dust, sand, sediments present in the river water.

When this treated water is released into the downriver stream, it affects the health of aquatic organisms present in that stream.Use of chemicals in treating the wastewater may cause genetic problems to the communities present in that region.

It also causes air pollution and more energy is needed for the treatment process and thus affects the ecosystem.

When a car slows down suddenly, passengers in the car tend to move toward the front of the car. What is this due to?
Neko [114]
Hey there Kendrell!

Yes, this is very true, when the car slows down, our bodies will tend to lean forward a little bit, and this is actually due to the "motion of inertia".

Inertia allows for this to happen, this is why in this case, we have this case.

Hope this helps.
