The Foucault Pendulum show that the Earth rotates because the pendulum would swing so slowly that it would appear to change direction as the Earth moved away.

<h3>How does the Foucault pendulum work?</h3>

The Foucault pendulum was able to demonstrate experimentally that the Earth revolves around itself with an angular velocity Ω, in a period of 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4 seconds.

Thus, Foucault knew that the longer the string attached to the weight, the slower the swing of his pendulum. He could attach the string above to an almost frictionless pin, and if he used a very large weight, the pendulum would swing so slowly that it would appear to change direction as the Earth moved away.

What is stimulated by high extracellular fluid volume (ECFV) and works to increase GFR and urine output?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Stretching of the atrial muscle cells releases a hormone called atrial natriuretic factor (ANF). ANF relaxes the juxtaglomerular (JG) cells of the afferent arteriole and thereby increases GFR and urine output.

What do you already know about conservation? Think about wildlife and the environment
Elenna [48]

Answer:

Wildlife is living organisms, like plants and animals that live anywhere in the world that they are not isolated in a certain area.

Explanation:

Each wildlife creature lives in an ecosystem that their bodies can tolerate and be able to survive in.

  • Penguin´s bodies are adapted to keep them warm in Antarctica, if they are in warm climates they would overheat.
  • Cold-blooded animals like iguanas cannot live in cold climates because their body temperature would be according to what they feel, so living in cold climates would cause them to die from hypothermia.

Hope it helps:)
