Answer:

Sensation and perception

Explanation:

When the sound waves pass through the auditory canal where the receptor neurons are stimulated. This description is an explanation of sensation. Sensation means that the person has detected a stimulus.

After the person receives the signal in the brain and thinks "That sounds like my mom calling me for dinner" this indicates that the person has perceived a stimulus. Perception is the interpretation of stimulus which is seen in the case here.

How is work defined in physics
Tcecarenko [31]

Explanation:

Work is the dot product of the force and displacement vectors.

W = F · d

In other words, it is the force times the parallel component of the distance.

W = F d cos θ, where θ is the angle between the force and distance.

Find the final velocity
Verizon [17]

Answer: v = 4.4 m/s

Explanation:

In the absence of friction, the total mechanical energy will be constant

KE₀ + PE₀ = KE₁ + PE₁

0 + mg(6) = ½mv₁² + mg(5)

½mv₁² = mg(6 - 5)

v = √(2g(1)) = 4.4 m/s

Two movers are pushing a large crate with a force of 60.0 n each. one pushes north, the other east. what is the equilibrant forc
romanna [79]
To get the solution you must need to draw a force triangle. Attach the head of the 60N north force arrow with the tail of the 60N east force arrow. The subsequent is the arrow connecting he tail and head of the two arrows. 
You get a right angled triangle, and the resultant is (60^2 + 60^2) ^0.5 = 84.85 N or 85 N northeast.

Explaining How Momentum Can Cause
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The astronaut can throw the hammer in a direction away from the space station. While he is holding the hammer, the total momentum of the astronaut and hammer is 0 kg • m/s. According to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum after he throws the hammer must still be 0 kg • m/s. In order for momentum to be conserved, the astronaut will have to move in the opposite direction of the hammer, which will be toward the space station.
