Answer:

A. the satellite cools off by radiation.

Explanation:

First of all, let's define the three methods of heat transfer:

- Conduction: conduction occurs when two objects (or two substances) are in contact with each other - the heat is transferred by the warmer object to the colder object by collisions between the particles of the two objects

- Convection: convection occurs when a fluid is heated by an external source of heat - the heat transferred by the source produce a movement of the particles in the fluid (the warmer part becomes less dense and rises, being replaced by the colder part of fluid which sinks, producing a convective current)

- Radiation: radiation occurs when an object emits electromagnetic radiation, which carries energy and heat. Every object emits electromagnetic radiation, so every object emits heat by radiation.

While the first two methods (conduction and convection) occur only if there is a medium involved, radiation can also occur in a vacuum, so also in empty space. Therefore, the satellite in space cools off only by radiation, since conduction and convection are not possible.

In the terminal portion of the axon (i.e. the end of the nerve) at the neuromuscular junction, calcium ions act to _________.
valentinak56 [21]

Answer: TO RELEASE SYNAPTIC VESICLES FROM THE AXON TERMINAL.

Explanation: SYNAPTIC VESICLES are in the form of sack,which helps in the storage of Neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters are released from the SYNAPSES through the Calcium channels which highly depend on Voltage.

Vesicles are essential for transmitting nerve impulses from one neuron to another Vesicles are constantly recreated by the cell as some older ones age.

Una tractomula se desplaza con rapidez de 69 km/h. Cuando el conductor ve una vaca atravesada enmedio de la carretera, acciona l
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Los datos que tenemos:

Rapidez: 69km/h

Tiempo que tarda en frenar = 4s.

Distancia inicial entre la tracto-mula y la vaca = 25m

Ok, la ecuación de desaceleración es:

D = (sf - si)/t

sf = velocidad final = 0m/s

si = velocidad inicial = 69km/h

t = tiempo = 4s

D = -69km/h/4s

ok, 1h = 3600s

D = (-69km/s)*1/(4*3600s)  = -0.0048 km/s^2

Entonces la ecuación de aceleración es:

a(t) =  -0.0048 km/s^2

Para la velocidad, integramos sobre el tiempo

v(t) = (-0.0048 km/s^2)*t + v0

donde v0 es la velocidad inicial, en este caso v0 = 69km/3600s = 0.0191km/s  

v(t) =  (-0.0048 km/s^2)*t + 0.0191km/s

Para la posición volvemos a integrar sobre el tiempo, esta vez suponemos la posición inicial igual a cero.

p(t) = (1/2)*(-0.0048 km/s^2)*t^2 + 0.0191m/s*t

Ahora, si p(t=4s) < 25m, esto implica que la tracto-mula no impacto con la vaca.

p(4s) = (1/2)*(-0.0048 km/s^2)*(4s)^2 + 0.0191km/s*4s = 0.038km

y 1km = 1000m

0.038km = 0.038*1000m = 38m

Entonces si, atropello a la vaca.
