When a person leaves his home for sightseeing by his car, the meter reads 12352 km. When he returns home after two hours the reading is 12416 km. (a) What is the average speed of the car during this period ? (b) What is the average velocity ?
a) Total distance covered 12416 – 12352 = 64 km in 2 hours. Speed = 64/2 = 32 km/h
b) As he returns to his house, the displacement is zero. Velocity = (displacement/time) = 0 (zero).
Light is a limiting factor for photosynthesis. Leaves get lesser light for photosynthesis when they are in shade. Therefore, the leaves or plants in shade perform lesser photosynthesis as compared...
Green leaves have a lot of moisture in them. This moisture does not allow them to catch fire easily. However, dry leaves have no moisture in them. Therefore, they catch...
