A newly discovered solar system is found 600 billion kilometers from the sun. How many AU

1 answer:

3 0

1 AU means 1 astronomical unit or the aproximate distance from the earth to the sun
1AU=149597870.7 kiometers

1 billion=1,000,000,000
600 billion=600,000,000,000


x times 1AU=600,000,000,000
x times 149597870.7=600,000,000,000
solve for x
divide both sides by 149597870.7
x=4010.75
so aprox 4011 AU's

There are many reasons why all humans do not perceive sounds similarly in our environment, including adaptation, hearing loss an

Elis [28]

Answer: 2A Sensorineural deafness

2B Sensory adaptation

2C Central deafness

2D Conductive deafness

Explanation: The human ear is divided into 3 parts:

Outer Ear: auricle, ear canal and tympanic membrane;
Middle Ear: eardrum, tympanic cavity and ossicles (malleus, incus and stapes);
Inner Ear: oval window, semicircular ducts (attached to cochlea and nerves), cochlea and auditory tube;

The Sensorineural deafness is a type of deafness caused by a damage in the inner ear, either the cochlea or the auditory nerve. It can happen because of medicine toxicity, exposure to noise along the years etc.

So, from the scenarios above, 2A is consistent with sensorineural deafness since stereocilia are hair cells of inner ear.

Sensory adaptation is a phenomenom that happens when an individual's sensory receptors is exposed to a stimuli for a prolonged period of time. For example, the situation described in 2B. It is not considered deafness because it is not caused by a damage in any part of the ear.

Central deafness is a very rare case of deafness. The damage in this type of deafness is in the brain and not in any of the 3 parts of the ear. That's why the scenario in 2C is the example of this.

Conductive deafness is the second most common type of ear problem and it occurs in the outer ear. One of the causes is blockage in the ear canal by the ear wax, external bodies, osteomas (bone growth) or otitis (oute ear infection). An example of this type of deafness is scenario 2D.
