Answer:

ventriculoperitoneal      

Explanation:

A VP or ventriculoperitoneal shunt is a medical equipment or a device which is used to relieve pressure from the brain that is caused by the accumulation of fluid in the brain. Ventriculoperitoneal shunting is a medical procedure that is primarily used to treat a condition  known as hydrocephalus. This condition occurs when the more cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) gets collected in the  ventricles of the brain than required.

Hence the answer is ---

ventriculoperitoneal

A 2. 0 μf and a 4. 0 μf capacitor are connected in series across an 8. 0-v dc source. what is the charge on the 2. 0 μf capacito
Nezavi [6.7K]

voltage across 2.0μf capacitor is 5.32v

Given:

C1=2.0μf

C2=4.0μf

since two capacitors are in series there equivalent capacitance will be

[tex] \frac{1}{c} = \frac{1}{c1} + \frac{1}{c2} [/tex]

c =  \frac{c1 \times c2}{c1 + c2}

=  \frac{2 \times 4}{2 + 4}

=1.33μf

As the capacitance of a capacitor is equal to the ratio of the stored charge to the potential difference across its plates, giving: C = Q/V, thus V = Q/C as Q is constant across all series connected capacitors, therefore the individual voltage drops across each capacitor is determined by its its capacitance value.

Q=CV

given,V=8v

= 1.33 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}  \times 8

= 10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}

charge on 2.0μf capacitor is

\frac{Qeq}{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }

=  \frac{10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }

=5.32v

A plane travels 350 km south along a straight path with an average velocity of 125 km/h to the south. The plane has a 30 minute
faust18 [17]
Average Velocity = Total Displacement / Total time

1st part of journey,  350 km at velocity 125 km/h

Time = 350 / 125 = 2.8 hours.

2nd part of journey,  220 km at velocity 115 km/h

Time = 220 / 115 = 1.9 hours


Average Velocity = Total Displacement / Total time

                               = (350 + 220) / (2.8 + 1.9)

                                =   570 / 4.7  ≈ 121.3 km/hr

Average Velocity ≈ 121 km/hr due south.
