A scientific law

Using Newton's Second Law, can you explain why one of the major advancements in spaceflight was the development of strong cerami

katovenus [111]

Answer:

high density can withstand high acceleration and applied forces

Heavy metals are toxic to humans,

the clay is quite abundant and in general it is not toxic

Explanation:

The selection of materials for the construction of rockets takes into account many aspects, the technical resistance to the demands of space travel, but also the abundance of the material. Heavy metals have two very serious problems. The first one, some of them are a little scarce in nature, but the most serious problem is that almost all of them are toxic to humans, for example: lead and mercury.

On the other hand, the clay is quite abundant and in general it is not toxic to living beings.

If we use Newton's second law

F = m a

let's use the concept of density

rho = m / V

m = rho V

let's substitute

F = rho V a

From this expression we see that a material with high density can withstand high acceleration and applied forces, such as those existing in spacecraft clearance and re-entry to Earth.

Unfortunately with this law there is no criterion to select a material unless its density is high, in addition to this criterion low toxicity criteria for human beings are used,

Plz help I will give brainly to the correct answer

Tresset [83]

Answer:

D. x-rays

Explanation:

Lower frequency: Radio waves, microwaves and infrared have lower frequency than visible light. Shorter wavelength: Ultraviolet, x-rays and gamma rays have a shorter wavelength than visible light.

Nerve cells transmit electric signals through their long tubular axons. These signals propagate due to a sudden rush of Na+ ions

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

$I = \frac{9.12x10^{-8} C}{0.007 s}= 1.30285 x10^{-5} \frac{C}{s}=1.30285 x10^{-5} A = 13.02 \mu A$

Explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

Number of Na+ ions $5.7 x10^{11} ions$

Each ion have a charge of +e and the crage of the electron is $1.6 x10^{-19}C$

The time is given $t = 7 ms$ if we convert this into seconds we got:

$t = 7ms * \frac{1s}{1000 ms}= 0.007s$

Now we can use the following formula given from the current passing thourhg a meter of nerve axon given by:

$Q = Ne$

Where N represent the number of ions, e the charge of the electron and Q the total charge

If we replace on this case we have this:

$Q= 5.7x10^{11} * (1.6 x10^{-19}C) = 9.12x10^{-8} C$

And from the general definition of current we know that:

$I =\frac{Q}{t}$

And since we know the total charge Q and the time we can replace:

$I = \frac{9.12x10^{-8} C}{0.007 s}= 1.30285 x10^{-5} \frac{C}{s}=1.30285 x10^{-5} A = 13.02 \mu A$

The current during the inflow charge in the meter axon for this case is $13.02 \mu A$

What are the components of friction?

Tresset [83]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Friction:

When an object slips on a surface, an opposing force acts between the tangent planes which acts in the opposite direction of motion. This opposing force is called Friction. Or in other words, Friction is the opposing force that opposes the motion between two surfaces.

The main component of friction are:

Normal Reaction (R):

Suppose a block is placed on a table in the above picture, which is in resting state, then two forces are acting on it at that time.

The first is due to its weight mg which is working from its center of gravity towards the vertical bottom.

The second one is superimposed vertically upwards by the table on the block, called the reaction force (P). This force passes through the center of gravity of the block.

Due to P = mg, the box is in equilibrium position on the table.

Coefficient of friction ( μ ):

The ratio of the force of friction and the reaction force is called the coefficient of friction.

Coefficient of friction, µ = force of friction / reaction force

μ = F / R

The coefficient of friction is volume less and dimensionless.

Its value is between 0 to 1.

Advantage and disadvantage from friction force:

The advantage of the force of friction is that due to friction, we can walk on the earth without slipping.
Brakes in all vehicles are due to the force of friction.
We can write on the board only because of the force of friction.
The disadvantage of this force is that due to friction, some parts of energy are lost in the machines and there is wear and tear on the machines.

How to reduce friction:

Using lubricants (oil or grease) in machines.
Friction can be reduced by using ball bearings etc.
Using a soap solution and powder.
