Since most people who are electrocuted don’t blow up, what kills them?

1 answer:

8 0

They are killed mostly by heart attacks. Alternating electrical current interferes with the electrical pulses of the heart produced by the Sino-atrial node hence cause the heart to beat erratically and hence a heart attack and death to result. 7 milliamps to your heart for 3 seconds can cause it to be arrhythmic.

Reika [66]

Answer:

The boats are 934.65 feet apart

Explanation:

Given:

The angles of depression to the two boats are 42 degrees and 29 degrees

Height of the observation deck i = 1,353 feet

To Find:

How far apart are the boats (y )= ?

Solution:

Step 1 : Finding the value of x(Refer the figure attached)

We can use the tangent ratio to find the x value

$tan(42^{\circ}) = \frac{1353}{x}$

$x = \frac{1353}{tan(42^{\circ}) }$

x = 590.47 feet

Step 2 : Finding the value of z (Refer the figure attached)

$tan(29^{\circ}) = \frac{1353}{z }$

$z = \frac{1353}{tan(29^{\circ})}$

z = 1525.12 feet

Step 3 : Finding the value of y (Refer the figure attached)

y = z -x

y = 1525.12 - 590.47

y = 934.65 feet

Thus the two boats are 934.65 feet apart

A motorcycle is traveling east at a rate of 56mph.it take 6.7 s for it to decrease its speed to 35mph. How far does the motorcyc

Phantasy [73]

Initial speed = 56mph
Final speed = 35mph

Time taken = 6.7seconds...

Converting the time to hour.. Divide by 3600..
= 6.7/3600

=0.00186hour..

Acceleration = v-u/t

a = 35-56/0.00186
a = -11283.6mph²

The negative sign shows that it decelerated...

V² = u²+2as

(35)² = (56)² + 2×-11283.6×s
Where s is the distance covered within that time...

1225 = 3136 - 22567.2s

22567.2s = 3136-1225

22567.2s = 1911

S = 1911/22567.2

S = 0.08468miles...

But at the end of the question we were made to understand that 1miles = 5280ft

Therefore 0.08468miles = (0.08468×5280)ft

= 447. 11feets...

Which is approximately 447ft.....

Hope this helped.... ?

A 0.43-kg object mass attached to a spring whose spring constant is 561 N/m executes simple harmonic motion. If its maximum spee

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

0.22 m

Explanation:

m = 0.43 kg, K = 561 N/m

Vmax = 8 m/s

Let the amplitude of the oscillations be A.

The formula for the angular frequency of oscillation sis given by

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{K}{m}}$

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{561}{0.43}}$

ω = 36.1 rad/s

The formula for the maximum velocity is given by

Vmax = ω x A

A = Vmax / ω

A = 8 / 36.1 = 0.22 m
