1.ans:  No the tension in the string of a simple pendulum is not constant throughout the motion                                     

v is velocity of the bob and theta is the angle made by the string with vertical axis.

as v and θ both are variable T is also variable.

T is maximum at mean position as at mean position v is max and the angle is minimum.

2.ans: If the amplitude of the simple...

In the air, there's nothing holding the body of the helicopter still - so the rotor blades spin one direction, but the torque applied to spin the rotors tries to spin the body of the helicopter in the opposite direction. The little rotor on the tail helps keep the body of the helicopter pointed in the same direction.

The stage of cell division in which paired homologous chromosomes get shortened and thickened is prophase I of meiosis. During this stage, the chromosomes condense and become visible as distinct structures, allowing for the homologous chromosomes to pair up and exchange genetic material through a process called crossing over. The shortening and thickening of the chromosomes during prophase I is important for proper alignment and separation of the homologous chromosomes during subsequent...

There is, for sure, effect of gravity on fire. We know for a fact that fires on Earth are "pointy" while those in zero-gravity are "round". This is because fire is simply glowing gas. Gas is matter and matter has weight. For a body to have weight, gravity must influence it in some way.
