Cowbirds follow groups of cows, or other grazing animals, eating the insects kicked up by the walking animals. The herbivores are not bothered by the cowbirds. This relationship is an example of: a
Competition
b
Commensalism
c
Predation
d
Mutualism

Suppose that an electromagnetic wave which is linearly polarized along the x−axis is propagating in vacuum along the z−axis. the wave is incident on a conductor which is placed at z > 0 region of the space. the conductor has conductivity σ, magnetic permeability µ and electric permittivity ε. (a) find the characteristic time for the free charge density which dissipates at the conductor. (b) write the maxwell equations and derive the wave equation for a plane wave propagating in a conductor. (c) find the attenuation distance at which the incident amplitude reduces to e ^−1 of its initial value. (d) find the electric and magnetic fields inside the conductor. 8 (e) find the power loss per area of the incident electromagnetic wave at the surface of conductor.

Two vectors are shown. which statement best compares the vectors? vector x has greater magnitude than vector y. vector y has greater magnitude than vector x. the vectors have the same displacement. the vectors have the same direction.

Acave rescue team lifts an injured spelunker directly upward and out of a sinkhole by means of a motor-driven cable. the lift is performed in three stages, each requiring a vertical distance of 10.0 m: (a) the initially stationary spelunker is accelerated to a speed of 4.90 m/s; (b) he is then lifted at the constant speed of 4.90 m/s; (c) finally he is decelerated to zero speed. how much work is done on the 68.0 kg rescue by the force lifting him during each stage?
