In connective tissue, the role of elastic fibers is to __________.

1 answer:

6 0

The role of elastic fiber is to keep the tissue length(or elasticity). That means if the tissue is stretched the elastic fiber will exert force to make it back into the normal length. This fiber can be found<span> in skin and lack of it will make wrinkle. Other connective tissue would be collagen which will give strength</span>

Collapse question part Part 4 (d) What is the unit vector in the direction of the spacecraft's velocity? (Express your answer in

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

unit (v) = [ -0.199 i - 0.8955 j + 0.39801 k ]

Explanation:

Given:

v = (-23.2, -104.4, 46.4) m/s

Above expression describes spacecraft's velocity vector v.

Find:

Find unit vector in the direction of spacecraft velocity v.

Solution:

Step 1: Compute magnitude of velocity vector.

mag (v) = sqrt ( 23.2^2 + 104.4^2 + 46.4^2)

mag (v) = 116.58 m/s

Step 2: Compute unit vector unit (v)

unit (v) = vec (v) / mag (v)

unit (v) = [ -23.2 i -104.4 j + 46.4 k ] / 116.58

unit (v) = [ -0.199 i - 0.8955 j + 0.39801 k ]

On a typical clear day, the atmospheric electric field points downward and has a magnitude of approximately 103 N/C. Compare the

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a) FE = 0.764FG

b) a = 2.30 m/s^2

Explanation:

a) To compare the gravitational and electric force over the particle you calculate the following ratio:

$\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{qE}{mg}$ (1)

FE: electric force

FG: gravitational force

q: charge of the particle = 1.6*10^-19 C

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2

E: electric field = 103N/C

m: mass of the particle = 2.2*10^-15 g = 2.2*10^-18 kg

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

$\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)}{(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}\\\\\frac{F_E}{F_G}=0.764$

Then, the gravitational force is 0.764 times the electric force on the particle

The acceleration of the particle is obtained by using the second Newton law:

$F_E-F_G=ma\\\\a=\frac{qE-mg}{m}$

you replace the values of all variables:

$a=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)-(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}{2.2*10^{-18}kg}\\\\a=-2.30\frac{m}{s^2}$

hence, the acceleration of the particle is 2.30m/s^2, the minus sign means that the particle moves downward.
