Orb spiders make silk with a typical diameter of 0.15mm.

A typical large orb spider has a mass of 0.50 . If this spider suspends itself from a single 12-cm-long strand of silk, by how much will the silk stretch?

What is the maximum weight that a single thread of this silk could support?

I saw this question posted already but nobody gave a clear answer/explanation. Please help if you can! Thank you!

As part of a safety investigation, two 1500kg cars traveling at 24m/s are crashed into different barriers. Find the average forces exerted on (a) the car that hits a line of water barrels and takes 1.8s to stop, and (b) the car that hits a concrete barrier and takes 0.3s to stop. Express answers in 2 sig figs.

If you can help, please explain it step by step because I'm so lost on this problem. Thank you!

Ok so here's the background info:

-I'm a senior in high school

-I'm a Level 10 gymnast

-I stayed injured pretty much my entire junior year and did not do much with the recruiting process because I spent my summer in Cornell Summer College

My problem:

I don't have a college to go to

My question is:

What should I do now? My mom is telling me to quit...actually a lot of people are amazed that I'm still doing gymnastics...

I know that I am and can be a great gymnast and I really want to do college gymnastics

All of my friends have scholarships and it doesn't matter if I get a scholarship or not, I just want to do college gymnastics!

So if anyone has anything that can help me in any way, it would be greatly appreciated!

I am a gymnast, and have been my entire life. I had an injury earlier this year that put me out of practice for a couple months and when I went back into training again, it was obviously very difficult. I spent the summer training, running, trying to get my endurance back up again, but nothing seemed to be working. I thought that maybe I was just not working hard enough and needed to practice more. Now it's November and it's been around half a year that I've been going to practice 24+ hours a week as well as doing other stuff. I am extremely tired everyday and don't really understand how.

For example - the hardest pass in my floor routine last year, a round-off, whip, 2 1/2 layout twist is now out of my routine because i don't have enough energy to do it. The "easiest" pass in my floor routing last december was a round-off, back handspring, layout 2 1/2 twist (yes this is very different) and I had no problem doing it at the end of my routine last year. Now it's my hardest pass.

Ok, so I got my hair Japanese straightened a while ago and it's amazing!!!

But I think the lady who did my hair cut my hair a little above the roots (or they're new roots) but anyways, I have new hair growing straight up!!! It's everywhere!!! I have to cover it with other pieces of hair or gel it down...i'm so tired of doing that...

How can I make it grow faster so that I don't have to deal with this anymore?

I'm also a gymnast so I can wear small sizes...

smallest size i can wear - 10 in kids

I have slightly longer legs than a torso so it's hard to find jeans that'll fit me and reach the ground...

PLEASE HELP ME!!!

There is a woman from China who already has one child. She is pregnant again and wants to keep the second child. Her husband and his family are telling her to have an abortion, but her and her parents want to keep it.

Her husband has a very high working status and will be taken from his position if he has a second child. WIth no work, their family will be left to starvation.

Their first child is about 8 years old and her parents live in the US...

She just came to the US on a Visa but didn't know about her pregnancy until she went back...

What should she do? How can she get back to the US?

Oh, and Abortion is NOT and option....
