irinina [24]1 year ago

'Capturing a photon by<em> isomerization and rhodopsin </em>of retinal' is the first step necessary for initiating the visual transduction cascade in rods.

Visual transduction refers to the process in the eye where absorption of light in the 'retina' is translated into electrical signals that then reach the brain. It is correct to state that visual transduction is the photochemical reaction that takes place when light or photon is converted to an electric signal in the retina. The visual pigment in the rods, called rhodopsin, is a membrane protein placed in the outer segments of the rods.

When initiating the visual transduction cascade in rods the first vital step is to capture a photon by<em> isomerization and rhodopsin</em> of retinal'.

With reference to the NSPE Code of Ethics, which one of the following statements is true regarding the ethical obligations of th
34kurt

Answer: c. The VW engineers involved were ethically obligated to hold paramount the health, welfare and safety of the public even if their supervisors directed them to implement software and hardware that enabled cheating on the emissions testing software.

Explanation: The National Society of professional Engineers, NSPE define the code of ethics which must guide engineers in their duty. These codes act as principles of personal conduct, towards the public and their employers.  

One of the areas covered by these codes is overriding importance of the safety and health of the public to any other factor. In addition, engineers are to avoid deception and maintain the reputation of their profession. These cannot be sacrificed for the financial gain of their employers or explained away by saying they are following the direction of their employers. While they have certain responsibilities to their employers, the health welfare and safety of the public is more important.

A ballistic pendulum consists of a 3.60 kg wooden block on the end of a long string. From the pivot point to the center‐of‐mass
Pavel [41]

Answer:

17.799°

Explanation:

When the bullet hits the block at that time the momentum is conserved

So, initial momentum = final momentum

P_i=P_f

So 28\times 10^{-3}\times 210=(3.6+0.028)v_f

v_f=1.6207\ m/sec

Now energy is also conserved

So \frac{1}{2}\times (3.6+0.028)\times 1.6207^2=(3.6+0.028)\times 9.81\times 2.8(1-cos\Theta )

cos\Theta =0.8521So\ \Theta =17.799^{\circ}

A cylindrical insulation for a steam pipe has an inside radius rt = 6 cm, outside radius r0 = 8 cm, and a thermal conductivity k
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

heat loss per 1-m length of this insulation is 4368.145 W

Explanation:

given data

inside radius r1 = 6 cm

outside radius r2 = 8 cm

thermal conductivity k = 0.5 W/m°C

inside temperature t1 = 430°C

outside temperature t2 = 30°C

to find out

Determine the heat loss per 1-m length of this insulation

solution

we know thermal resistance formula for cylinder that is express as

Rth = \frac{ln\frac{r2}{r1}}{2 \pi *k * L}   .................1

here r1 is inside radius and r2 is outside radius L is length and k is thermal conductivity

so

heat loss is change in temperature divide thermal resistance

Q = \frac{t1- t2}{\frac{ln\frac{r2}{r1}}{2 \pi *k * L}}

Q = \frac{(430-30)*(2 \pi * 0.5 * 1}{ln\frac{8}{6} }

Q = 4368.145 W

so heat loss per 1-m length of this insulation is 4368.145 W

A metal bar has a 0.6 in. x 0.6 in. cross section and a gauge length of 2 in. The bar is loaded with a tensile force of 50,000 l
Aleks [24]

Answer:

modulus =3.97X10^6 Ib/in^2, Poisson's ratio = 0.048

Explanation:

Modulus is the ratio of tensile stress to tensile strain

Poisson's ratio is the ratio of transverse contraction strain to longitudinal extension strain within the direction of the stretching force

And contraction occur from 0.6 in x 0.6 in to 0.599 in x 0.599 in while 2 in extended to 2.007, with extension of 0.007 in
