The rupture and fractionation do not usually occur in the water column in $vessels/tracheids$ during the ascent of sap because of

When two species of different genealogy come to resemble each other as a result of adaptation,the phenomenon is termed as

Two identical blocks $A$ and $B$,each of mass $m$,resting on a smooth floor,are connected by a light spring of natural length $L$ and spring constant $k$. $A$ third identical block $C$ (mass $m$) moving with a speed $v$ along the line joining $A$ and $B$ collides with $A$. The maximum compression in the spring is proportional to:

$\sum_{k=1}^5 \frac{1^3+2^3+\ldots+k^3}{1+3+5+\ldots+(2k-1)}$ is equal to (in $.5$)

The image of the line $x+y-2=0$ in the $y$-axis is

If light of wavelength $\lambda_1$ is allowed to fall on a metal,then the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted is $E_1$. If the wavelength of light changes to $\lambda_2$,then the kinetic energy of the electrons changes to $E_2$. Then the work function of the metal is:
