PLSSS HEL A team of botanists conducted an experiment investigating the effect of pH on plant growth. The height of the plant was measured three weeks after planting. 1) Based on the data they collected, what is the optimal pH for growing basil? Explain your answer.

2)Based on the data they collected, which plant fares better than the others in low pH environments? Explain your answer.

3) At which pH is there the greatest difference between the heights of parsley and basil? What is the height difference at that pH?

Industrial processes often require the damping of vibrations. consider a workbench that uses four large ideal springs in place of traditional legs, with each spring supporting one corner of the workbench and exhibiting a force constant of 47500 n/m. this workbench is used when creating products that involve highly unstable chemicals. according to specifications, the acceleration of the manufacturing equipment must be held to less than 22.3 m/s2 for the manufacturing process to proceed safely. the amplitude of vibrations are expected to remain under 0.622 mm throughout. given that the workbench and maufacturing equipment combine to 6.05 kg, find the maximum acceleration expected of the equipment and workbench. (ignore the mass of the springs.)
