Answer:

Thalamus

Explanation:

Thalamus is a mass of gray matter located just above the brain stem, between the cerebral cortex and the midbrain. It plays a role in pain sensation, attention and alertness. It consists of four parts: the hypothalamus, the epythalamus, the ventral thalamus and the dorsal thalamus.

It (Thalamus) serves as the major relay station for most sensory impulses that reach the primary sensory areas of the cerebral cortex from the spinal cord and brain stem.

An object is thrown directly upwards from the ground at a velocity of 9ms. Recalling that the acceleration due to gravity is −gm
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Object is thrown with a velocity of u=9\ m/s

Acceleration due to gravity is -g (i.e. acting downward)

Vertical distance traveled by object is given by

v^2-u^2=2as  

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

at maximum height final velocity is zero

0-(9)^2=2\times (-g)\times (s)

s=\frac{81}{2g}=\frac{40.5}{g}\ m

time taken to reach maximum height

using

v=u+at

0=9-gt

t=\frac{9}{g}\ s

A scientist plans to find out the percent of teenagers who like science. She interviews 500 teenagers leaving a science museum a
Georgia [21]
The source of information was biased. It was like walking along a river bank in the country and asking everybody you meet whether they like fishing. Or asking 500 people sitting in the bleachers whether they like baseball.
I'm sure the scientist would have gotten different data if she interviewed 500 teenagers at neighborhood basketball courts, or 500 teenagers at a rock concert.

What does it mean for water to have a high heat capacity
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Its heat capacity is higher than that of any other liquid or solid, its specific heat being 1 cal / g, this means that to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1 ° C it is necessary to provide an amount of heat equal to a calorie . Therefore, the heat capacity of 1 g of water is equal to 1 cal / K.

Explanation:

The water has a very high heat capacity, a large amount of heat is necessary to raise its temperature 1.0 ° K. For biological systems this is very important because the cellular temperature is modified very little in response to metabolism. In the same way, aquatic organisms, if water did not possess that quality, would be very affected or would not exist.

This means that a body of water can absorb or release large amounts of heat, with little temperature change, which has a great influence on the weather (large bodies of water in the oceans take longer to heat and cool than the ground land). Its latent heats of vaporization and fusion (540 and 80 cal / g, respectively) are also exceptionally high.

Two identical resistors connected in series have an equivalent resistance of 4 ohms. The same two resistors, when connected in p
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

1 ohm

Explanation:

since there are two identical resistors, one resistor will be

R = \frac{4}{2} =2ohm [ proven as in series R_{e} = 2 + 2 = 4ohm ]

to calculate the equivalent resistance when in parallel:

\frac{1}{R_{e} }  = \frac{1}{R_{1} } + \frac{1}{R_{2}}

so,

\frac{1}{R_{e} } = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2}

R_{e} = 1ohm
