Answer:

tympanic membrane (eardrum)

Explanation:

The sound waves spread through the air and reach the outer ear, into which they penetrate through the ear canal. In doing so, they stimulate the eardrum, which closes the inner end of the duct. By vibrating this membrane, the vibration of a chain of ossicles located in the middle ear is induced. These ossicles transmit their vibration to the oval window, which is a membranous structure that communicates the middle ear with the cochlea of ​​the inner ear. When the oval membrane moves, it moves the liquid (perilymph) that fills one of the three cavities of the cochlea generating waves in it. These waves mechanically stimulate the sensory cells (hair cells) located in the organ of Corti, within the cochlea in the central cavity, the middle ramp. This cavity is filled with a liquid rich in K +, endolymph. The cells embedded in the endolymph, change their permeability to K + due to the movement of the cilia and respond by releasing a neurotransmitter that excites the nerve terminals, which initiate the auditory sensory pathway.

spin [16.1K]

Los Angeles lies on the Pacific plate, San Francisco lies on the North American plate, and the meeting point of the two cities is mathematically given as

T = 120 x 105 years

<h3>What is the meeting point of the two plates?</h3>

Generally, the equation for Distance is mathematically given as

D = Rate x Time

Therefore

T = D/R

T = (600 x 105) / 5

T = 120 x 105 years

In conclusion, the meeting point of the two plates will be

T = 120 x 105 years

The intensity of light from a star (its brightness) is the power it outputs divided by the surface area over which it’s spread:
kow [346]

Answer:

\frac{d_{1}}{d_{2}}=0.36

Explanation:

1. We can find the temperature of each star using the Wien's Law. This law is given by:

\lambda_{max}=\frac{b}{T}=\frac{2.9x10^{-3}[mK]}{T[K]} (1)

So, the temperature of the first and the second star will be:

T_{1}=3866.7 K

T_{2}=6444.4 K

Now the relation between the absolute luminosity and apparent brightness  is given:

L=l\cdot 4\pi r^{2} (2)

Where:

  • L is the absolute luminosity
  • l is the apparent brightness
  • r is the distance from us in light years

Now, we know that two stars have the same apparent brightness, in other words l₁ = l₂

If we use the equation (2) we have:

\frac{L_{1}}{4\pi r_{1}^2}=\frac{L_{2}}{4\pi r_{2}^2}

So the relative distance between both stars will be:

\left(\frac{d_{1}}{d_{2}}\right)^{2}=\frac{L_{1}}{L_{2}} (3)

The Boltzmann Law says, L=A\sigma T^{4} (4)

  • σ is the Boltzmann constant
  • A is the area
  • T is the temperature
  • L is the absolute luminosity

Let's put (4) in (3) for each star.

\left(\frac{d_{1}}{d_{2}}\right)^{2}=\frac{A_{1}\sigma T_{1}^{4}}{A_{2}\sigma T_{2}^{4}}

As we know both stars have the same size we can canceled out the areas.

\left(\frac{d_{1}}{d_{2}}\right)^{2}=\frac{T_{1}^{4}}{T_{2}^{4}}

\frac{d_{1}}{d_{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{T_{1}^{4}}{T_{2}^{4}}}

\frac{d_{1}}{d_{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{T_{1}^{4}}{T_{2}^{4}}}

\frac{d_{1}}{d_{2}}=0.36

I hope it helps!
