<h2>Answer: Sensory adaptation</h2>

Explanation:

Sensory adaptation refers to the adjustment of the sensory capacity of a person following prolonged exposure to stimuli.

To better understand this, it is necessary to explain that environmental stimuli cause a change in the sensitivity of a person's sensory receptors. Then, depending on the type of environmental stimulus, the determined receptor will be stimulated (related to the five main senses of the human being: sight, smell, taste, touch and hearing).

However, when a person gets used to a stimulus, adaptation occurs. Therefore, <u>it will not respond to the stimulus in the same way as it did before. </u>

A very common example is the relation with the smells (olfactory sense), because people get used quickly to the smells that surround them and then they stop "perceiving" the smell.

<span>We use mirrors when we drive cars ect </span>

<span>Normally they are set across from a concealed entrance or one that is hard to see both ways like the inside of a hairpin bend. Sometimes only to help in one direction. </span>

<span>Sonar which is sound waves that are sent out at a set rate then reflected by objects. The longer the gap between the two the further away it is, They still use periscopes to target boats though. </span>

<span>The periscope can only reflect what is outside so if you could see it because there is enough light then Yes. If you could not see it because it is dark then No unless you get into Info-Red light or Image Intensifying systems as well </span>

Which formula can be used to find the tangential speed of an orbiting object?
netineya [11]
The formula used for finding the tangential speed (speed of something that is moving in a circular path) of an orbiting object is:
V₍t₎ = ωr
V₍t₎ = tangential speed or velocity
ω = angular velocity
r = radius of the circular path
if time taken t is only given then use this formula to calculate the tangential speed:
 V₍t₎ = 2πr/t,     t is time taken
