<h3>Answer;</h3>

B. When actin filaments are pulled toward the center of the sarcomere, the fiber shortens.

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

The events of muscle fiber shortening occurs with in the sacromeres in the fibers.
Contraction of striated muscle fibers takes place as the sacromeres shorten as myosin heads pull on the actin filaments.
Filament movement starts at the region or zone where thin and thick filaments overlap.
Myofibril contains many sacromeres along its length and thuse myofibrils and muscle cells contract as the sacromeres contract.

The magnitude of the voltage induced in a conductor moving through a stationary magnetic field depends on the _______ and the __

Virty [35]

The correct answer is: Option (D) length, speed

Explanation:

According to Faraday's Law of Induction:

ξ = Blv

Where,

ξ = Emf Induced

B = Magnetic Induction

l = Length of the conductor

v = Speed of the conductor.

As you can see that ξ (Emf/voltage induction) is directly proportional to the length and the speed of the conductor. Therefore, the correct answer will be Option (D) Length, Speed

A boat sails along the shore. To an observer, the boat appears to move at a speed of 22 m/s, and a man on the boat walking forwa

seropon [69]

The boat is moving at 22 m/s while the man is moving at 23.1 m/s.

That means the man, relative to the boat, is moving at 23.1-22 = 1.1 m/s.

v =d/t, so t = d/v --> t = 3/1.1 = 2.7 s

A 0.540-kg bucket rests on a scale. Into this bucket you pour sand at the constant rate of 56.0 g/s. If the sand lands in the bu

romanna [79]

Answer:

a) 12.8212 N

b) 12.642 N

Explanation:

Mass of bucket = m = 0.54 kg

Rate of filling with sand = 56.0 g/ sec = 0.056 kg/s

Speed of sand = 3.2 m/s

g= 9.8 m/sec2

Condition (a);

Mass of sand = Ms = 0.75 kg

So total mass becomes = bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

== > total weight = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N

Now impact of sand = rate of filling × velocity = 0.056 × 3.2 = 0.1792 kg. m /sec2=0.1792 N

Scale reading is sum of impact of sand and weight force ;

i-e

scale reading = 12.642 N+0.1792 N = 12.8212 N

Codition (b);

bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

==>weight = mg = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N (readily calculated above as well)

1. An asphalt block has a mass of 90 kg and a volume of 0.075 m. Determines the density of the asphalt.

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

1. Density = 1200[kg/m^3]; 2. Volume= 0.005775[m^3], mass= 15.59[kg]

Explanation:

1. We know that the density is defined by the following expression.

$Density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\where:\\mass=90[kg]\\volume=0.075[m^{3} ]\\density=\frac{90}{0.075} \\density=1200[\frac{kg}{m^{3} }]$

2. First we need to convert the units to meters.

wide = 35[cm] = 35/100 = 0.35[m]

long = 11 [dm] = 11 decimeters = 11/10 = 1.1[m]

Thick = 15[mm] = 15/1000 = 0.015[m]

Now we can find the density using the expression for the density.

$density= \frac{mass}{volume} \\where:\\volume = wide*long*thick\\volume=0.35*1.1*0.015 = 0.005775[m^3]\\\\mass= density*volume = 2700*0.005775 = 15.59[kg]$
