        HI


        How abt section (B) qn
        Something abt the type of colour used for photosynthesis. For Part (C) when they removed the water plants, what observation will the person see to ensure result at part (B) is correct?

        My ans is he should see which section the fishes swam

        Is my ans correct?

        My friend says my ans is correct and tis ques came in a schools 2009 prilim

        Can the ans be:
        The number of fish in each section.

            Concerned student:
            777:

            [quote=\"fantasy1\"]a only - swollen stem

            (b) short root
            (c) broad leaves

            she chose only (a)


            I also chose swollen stem

            I also šŸ˜„[/quote]Can't be short roots 'coz they will grow deep into the soil to collect more water and mineral salts.Broad leaves is also wrong as broad=more exposed surface area.Thus,the stomata will tend to lose more water.Remember,this Plant H lives in a desert-a hot and humid place.

                How about friction question from McQ.....

                My dd's answer is only C as friction opposes motion...
                Only the box in c is moving so it should have friction

                Confirmed with teacher-A,B and C.
                Friction also acts on stationary objects. That's why forces have to overcome the friction before being able to move the object. Also, if there were no friction acting on an object,the object would glide across the surface, like ice, and would never stop.
                Thus, A is also correct.

                The force of friction is always exerted in a direction that opposes movement or potential movement between the two surfaces,
                For B: Potential movement
                For šŸ˜„ Movement
                For A: non
                So answer should be: B &C

                  My answer for this question is (4) A, B & C. I thought about the surfaces in contact since if there was no friction the wooden block would be sliding around instead of remaining stationary.

                    I checked yahoo answers. Friction can act on stationary objects. The inertia of the mass at rest and the coefficient of friction between the two surfaces must be overcome.

                      I'm not sure, but my answer was that he would observe about an equal number of fishes in each section when the water plants had been removed.

                        Aslo for Yahoo answer
                        the frivction exists everwhere between surfaces
                        but if there is no other force in the horizontal direction and it rests on the horizontal surface then there is no frictional force acting on itsometimes you push a heavy object but cant move it, here although it is stationary the force which resists motion is the frictional force hence it exists and has a value exactly equal to the force you have applied on it. but the frictional force can only reach a maximum value of coeffcient of friction * normal reaction
                        so once your applied force exceeds this value then it will have to start moving
