Navigation: Ideas for Investigation We’ve been trying to figure out where food molecules come from in plants. We think plants must be making them from parts that they take in. One tool we can use is a simulation to figure out how all the parts of the system are interacting.

If we could represent what is going on inside a plant using a simulation:

What inputs and outputs of the plant system would we want to represent?

What structures of the plant would we want to represent?

The intensity, or loudness, of a sound can be measured in decibels (db), according to the equation , where i is the intensity of a given sound and is the threshold of hearing intensity. what is the intensity, in decibels, [i(db)], when ? use a calculator. round to the nearest whole number. 8 9 19 80

1point) a skydiver weighing 130 lb (including equipment) falls vertically downward from an altitude of 14,000 ft and opens the parachute after 20 s of free fall. assume that the force of air resistance, which is directed opposite to the velocity, is of magnitude 0.85|v|0.85|v| when the parachute is closed and is of magnitude 17|v|17|v| when the parachute is open, where the velocity vv is measured in ft/s. assume that acceleration due to gravity has magnitude 32 ft/s/s; remember that weight is the product of mass and gravitational acceleration. find the speed of the skydiver when the parachute opens. speed is 150.6121788 ft/s find the skydiver's height when the parachute opens. height is 2338.98591 ft find the limiting velocity vlvl after the parachute opens. (think about whether this should be positive or negative.) vl=vl= 7.647 ft/s

Velocity is a description of both speed and direction, therefore it - a vector - a force arrow - the same as acceleration - a magnitude
