Answer:

(a) 0.063 m/s

(b) 1.01 m/s

Explanation:

rate of volume flow, V = 4 x 10^-6 m^3/s

(a) radius, r = 4.5 x 10^-3 m

Let the speed of blood is v.

So, V = A x v

where A be the area of crossection of  artery

4 x 10^-6 = 3.14 x 4.5 x 10^-3 x 4.5 x 10^-3 x v

v = 0.063 m/s

Thus, the speed of flow of blood is 0.063 m/s .

(b) Now r' = r / 4 = 4.5 /4 x 10^-3 m = 1.125 x 10^-3 m

Let the speed is v'.

So, V = A' x v'

4 x 10^-6 = 3.14 x 1.125 x 10^-3 x 1.125 x 10^-3 x v'

v' = 1.01 m/s

Thus, the speed of flow of blood is 1.01 m/s .

Katyanochek1 [597]
Start with 2,000 grams.
After 1 half-life, 1,000 grams are left.
After another half-life, 500 are left.
After another half-life, 250 are left.
After another half-life, 125 are left.

That was FOUR half-lifes.

A force of constant magnitude pushes a box up a vertical surface, as shown in the figure.
Ray Of Light [21]

The work done on the box by the applied force is zero.

The work done by the force of gravity is 75.95 J

The work done on the box by the normal force is 75.95 J.

<h3>The given parameters:</h3>
  • Mass of the box, m = 3.1 kg
  • Distance moved by the box, d = 2.5 m
  • Coefficient of friction, = 0.35
  • Inclination of the force, θ = 30⁰

<h3>What is work - done?</h3>
  • Work is said to be done when the applied force moves an object to a certain distance

The work done on the box by the applied force is calculated as;

W = Fd cos(\theta)\\\\W = (ma)d \times cos(\theta)

where;

a is the acceleration of the box

The acceleration of the box is zero since the box moved at a constant speed.

W = (0) d \times cos(30)\\\\W = 0 \ J

The work done by the force of gravity is calculated as follows;

W = mg \times d\\\\W = 3.1 \times 9.8 \times 2.5 \\\\W = 75.95 \ J

The work done on the box by the normal force is calculated as follows;

W = (F_n) \times d\\\\W = (mg + F sin\theta) \times d\\\\W = (mg + 0) \times d\\\\W = mgd\\\\W = 3.1 \times 9.8 \times 2.5\\\\W = 75.95 \ J

8. How is the crystal size different for extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks?
eduard
<span>Igneous rocks which form by the crystallization of magma at a depth within the Earth are called intrusive rocks. Intrusive rocks are characterized by large crystal sizes, i.e., their visual appearance shows individual crystals interlocked together to form the rock mass.  hope that helped</span>

Hydroelectric plants are used to produce electricity. Electric generators are used in such plants that are linked to water-wheel
svp [43]

Hydroelectric plants are used to produce electricity is the statement that best explains the relationship between energy and motion.

<h3>Explains the relationship between energy and motion in the process?</h3>

There is direct relationship between energy and motion in the process because if we increase the motion of the turbines, more electricity is produced in the generator and vice versa.

So we can conclude that the relationship between energy and motion in the process is directly proportional to each other.

Describe what happens to pressure as the force exerted on a given area increases.
Goryan [66]

That's the definition of pressure ... force on a given area.

So when that force increases, it's an increase in pressure.
