Answer:

Although the Earth has a lesser mass than the Sun, it is far closer to you, allowing for a stronger pull.

A tree loses water to the air by the process of transpiration at the rate of 110 g/h. This water is replaced by the upward flow
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

The answer is 1.87nm/s.

Explanation:

The 110g/hr  water loss must be replaced by 110g/hr of sap. 110g of sap corresponds to a volume of  

110g \div \dfrac{1040*10^3g}{1*10^6cm^3}  = 106cm^3

thus rate of sap replacement is

106cm^3/hr = 106*10^{-6}m^3/3600s  = 2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s

The volume of sap in the vessel of length x is

V = Ax,

where A is the cross sectional area of the vessel.

For 2000 such vessels, the volume is

V = 2000Ax

taking the derivative of both sides we get:

\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 2000A \dfrac{dx}{dt}

on the left-hand-side \dfrac{dx}{dt} is the velocity v of the sap, and on right-hand-side \dfrac{dV}{dt}  = 2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s; therefore,

2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s=2000Av

and since the cross-sectional area is

A = \pi (\dfrac{100*10^{-3}m}{2} )^2 = 7.85*10^{-3}m^2;

therefore,

2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s =2000(7.85*10^{-3}m^2)v

solving for v we get:

v = \dfrac{2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s}{2000(7.85*10^{-3}m^2)}

\boxed{v =1.875*10^{-9}m/s = 1.875nm/s}

which is the upward speed of the sap in each vessel.

Why to astronauts appear weightless while they are filmed performing activities inside the orbiting space shuttle?
vagabundo [1.1K]
<h2>Answer: The astronauts are falling at the same rate as the space shuttle as it orbits around earth</h2>

The astronauts seem to float because they are in free fall just like the spacecraft.

However, although they are constantly falling on the Earth, they do not fall because the ship orbits at a sufficient speed (in the same direction of rotation of the Earth) so that the centrifugal force is balanced with the Earth's gravitational pull.

In other words:

The spaccraft and the astronauts are in free fall but the Earth's surface will never be reached as long as they does not decrease the speed.

Then, as they accelerate toward Earth (regardless of their mass), it curves beneath them and never comes close.

That's why astronauts, having the same acceleration as the spacecraft, feel weightless and see themselves floating.

Henry mixed salt and water together in a cup until he observed a clear solution. He measured the mass of the solution. Then he p
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

He is incorrect. Dissolving salt in water and evaporation of the water are both physical changes. The reappearance of salt is evidence that the change was reversible by a physical change, so it could not be a chemical change.

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Explanation:

kx = mg

k = mg/x

k = 0.350(9.81)/0.005

k = 686.7
