A water strider is able to stay on the surface of the water because

Water striders are insects that have the ability to walk across the surface of water.Which properties of water allow the water strider to do this?

Due to which property of water do small insects like water striders float on its surface?

The streambank on the outside of this meander is steeper than the streambank on the inside of this meander because the water on the outside of this meander is moving

Some insects can walk on the surface of water because of the high surface tension of water called the adhesive force interaction among the water molecules.Question 2Select one:TrueFalse

A swimmer is towed through the water firstly while lying in a prone position on the water surface, then in a prone position but submerged under the water surface (assume the swimmer maintains the same horizontal position and is towed at the same speed in both situations). The person towing the swimmer would usually need to apply the greatest force to move the swimmer through the water in which situation:Question 17Answera.the prone position on the water surface and pulled quickly because, in this position, the swimmer has a higher wave drag than when submergedb.the prone position on the water surface because in this position, the swimmer has a higher surface area exposed to two types of fluid than when submerged, which increases form dragc.the submerged prone position and pulled quickly because, in this position, the swimmer has a less streamlined body position compared to when on the water surface, which increases form dragd.the submerged prone position and pulled quickly because, in this position, the swimmer has a higher surface area exposed to the flow compared to when on the water surface, which increases surface drage.the same force would be applied to the swimmer in a prone position on the water surface and when submerged to move them at the same velocity through the water. This is because there is the same amount of form drag in both situations.
