Answer:

In the water flow mechanism in fishes when they take in oxygen using the gills

Explanation:

Fish gills are organ that facilites respiration under water,its Mechanism is described below,first water is pulled in the mouth of the fish and pumped over the gills,while the blood flow in opposite direction known as counter current exchange helps in pushing low oxgen water away and retaining high oxgen in the fish blood.

A student measures the volume of a gas sample at several different temperatures. The results are tabulated as follows:Temperatur

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Check the first and the third choices:

a. The temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume

b. The temperature-to-volume ratio of a gas is constant.

Explanation:

Rewrite the table for better understanding:

Temperature of gas (K) Volume of gas (L)

298 4.55

315 4.81

325 4.96

335 ?

Calculate the ratios temperature to volume with 3 significant figures:

298 / 4.55 = 65.5

315 / 4.81 = 65.5

325 / 4.96 = 65.5

Then, those numbers show a constant temperature-to-volume ratio, which may be expressed in a formula as:

Temperature / Volume = constant, which is a directly proportional variation (the volume increases in a constant proportion to the increase of the temperature).

Hence, the correct choices are:

The temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume (first statement), and

The emperature-to-volume ratio of a gas is constant (third statement).

Find the wavelength of the third line in the lyman series, and identify the type of em radiation.

Natalija [7]

The wavelength of the third line in the Lyman series, and identify the type of EM radiation

In this series, the spectral lines are obtained when an electron makes a transition from any high energy level (n=2,3,4,5... ). The wavelength of light emitted in this series lies in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

1 / lambda = R(h)* ( $\frac{1}{(n1)^{2} }$ - $\frac{1}{(n2)^{2} }$ )

= 109678 ( $\frac{1}{1^{2} }$ - $\frac{1}{3^{2} }$ )

= 109678 (8/9)

Lambda = 9 / (109678 * 8 )

= 102.6 * $10^{-9}$ m = 102.6 nm

A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "44.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of

vitfil [10]

Answer:

a) 4.485 kg b) 3.94 kg

Explanation:

since the maximum tension the line can stand is 44 N and for question a the speed is constant (acceleration must be zero since the velocity or speed is not changing), F(tension) = mass * acceleration due to gravity (g) .

44 = m * 9.81m/s^2

m = 44/9.81 = 4.485kg

b) F(tension) = ma + mg ( where a is the acceleration of the body and g is the acceleration of the gravity)

44 = m (a +g)

44 = m (1.37 + 9.81)

44/11.18 = m

m = 3.94 kg

A car accelerates at a rate of 13m/s^2[S]. If the car's initial velocity is 120km/h[N]. What will its final velocity be in m/s,

Delvig [45]

Answer:

the final velocity of the car is 59.33 m/s [N]

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration of the car, a = 13 m/s²

initial velocity of the car, u = 120 km/h = 33.33 m/s

duration of the car motion, t = 2 s

The final velocity of the car in the same direction is calculated as follows;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity of the car

v = 33.33 + (13 x 2)

v = 59.33 m/s [N]

Therefore, the final velocity of the car is 59.33 m/s [N]
