Answer:

a.auditory ossicles

b.oval window

c.Round window

d.tympanic membrane

Answer is tympanic membrane

Explanation:

The tympanic membrane otherwise called the ear drum is a membrane shaped like a cone,it connects the outside to the inner ear,it serves to convert vibration from air into fluid membrane vibration a good example of mechanical waves for onwatd transmission into the cochlea of the inner ear through the oval window

Sally travels by car from one city to another. She drives for 26.0 min at 83.0 km/h, 52.0 min at 41.0 km/h, and 45.0 min at 60.0

Anna007 [38]

The average speed is determined by the following formula:

average speed = [sum of (speed * time for which that speed was traveled)] / total time

average speed = [(83 * 26 + 41 * 52 + 60 * 45 + 0 * 15) / 60] / [(26 + 52 + 45 + 15) / 60]
*note: The division by 60 is to convert minutes to hours. We see that the 60 cancels from the top and bottom of the division

average speed = 50.65 km/hr

The total distance traveled is equivalent to the numerator of the fraction we used in the first part. This is:
Distance = (83 * 26 + 41 * 52 + 60 * 45 + 0 * 15) / 60

Distance = 116.5 kilometers

Resonance occurs when an object vibrating at or near the resonant frequency of a second object to vibrate. What form of waves ar

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Resonance depends on objects, this may happen for example when you play guitar in a given room, you may find that for some notes the walls or some object vibrate more than for others. This is because those notes are near the frequency of resonance of the walls.

So waves involved are waves that can move or affect objects (in this case the pressure waves of the sound, and the waves that are moving the wall).

this means that the waves are mechanic waves.

Now, in electromagnetics, you also can find resonance frequencies for electromagnetic waves trapped in things called cavities, but this is a different topic.

A passenger on your boat falls overboard. what should you do first?

yarga [219]

The very first thing that you should do when a passenger on your boat falls overboard is to throw a PFD or also known as a Personal Flotation Device. This would include anything that can help the passenger to float. But this step would differ, only if the passenger is not wearing a lifevest.

The diffusion rate for a solute is 4.0 x 10^-11 kg/s in a solvent- filled channel that has a cross-sectional area of 0.50 cm^2 a

zlopas [31]

Answer:

$s = 9.6\times 10^{-12}kg/s$

Explanation:

Given:

Solute Diffusion rate = 4.0 × 10⁻¹¹ kg/s

Area of cross-section = 0.50 cm²

Length of channel =0.25 cm

Now for the new channel

Area of cross-section = 0.30 cm²

Length of channel =0.10 cm

let the Solute Diffusion rate of new channel = s

now equating the diffusion rate per unit volume for both the channels

$\frac{4\times 10^{-11}}{0.50\times 0.25}=\frac{s}{0.30\times 0.10}$

thus,

$s = 9.6\times 10^{-12}kg/s$

A sailboat is traveling to the right when a gust of wind causes the boat to accelerate leftward at 2.5m/s2 for 4s. After t

Ber [7]

Answer:

+7.0 m/s

Explanation:

Let's take rightward as positive direction.

So in this problem we have:

a = -2.5 m/s^2 acceleration due to the wind (negative because it is leftward)

t = 4 s time interval

v = -3.0 m/s is the final velocity (negative because it is leftward)

We can use the following equation:

v = u + at

Where u is the initial velocity

We want to find u, so if we rearrange the equation we find:

$u = v - at = (-3.0 m/s) - (-2.5 m/s^2)(4 s)=+7.0 m/s$

and the positive sign means the initial direction was rightward.
