The correct answer is<span> measure the distance to a star. 

It is</span> the semi-angle of inclination between two sight-lines to the star, as observed when the Earth is on opposite sides of the Sun in its orbit. This is used to measure the distance to closer stars.

a toboggan loaded with vacationing students (total weight 1300 N) slides down a slope at 30 degrees and there is no friction. wh
sasho [114]

Answer:

The acceleration of the sliding toboggan is, a = 4.9 m/s²

Explanation:

Given data,

The total weight of the toboggan, W = 1300 N

The slope is, Ф = 30°

The acceleration of a body under the influence of the gravitational field does not depend on its mass, size and shape in the absence of the air resistance.

Therefore,

The acceleration of the toboggan is given by the formula,

                           a = g Sin Ф

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                           a = 9.8 x Sin 30°

                              = 4.9 m/s²

Hence, the acceleration of the sliding toboggan is, a = 4.9 m/s²

Lorico [155]

Answer:

Condition of fatigue caused by depletion of glycogen

Explanation:

Let us examine how a body produces energy. There are two ways:

Fat metabolism

Fatty acids in the body help to capture adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which produces energy. On a per gram basis fatty acids yields the most ATP when oxidized completely.

Glycogen breakdown

the enzyme glycogen phosphorylase cleaves glycogen from the non reducing ends to produce monomers of glucose-1-phosphate. These monomers are used by the human body to supply energy.

When a person is exercising his/her VO₂ i.e., the oxygen consumption reaches maximum, here most of the energy comes from glycogen. While exercising most of the energy comes from glycogen breakdown.

So, when Anthony hit the wall it means that he has depleted his source of glycogen and can no longer produce glucose which provides him energy.

Any example of acceleration related to human body??? <br> answer quickly plz :)
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Acceleration stress, physiological changes that occur in the human body in motion as a result of rapid increase of speed. ... A force of 3 g, for example, is equivalent to an acceleration three times that of a body falling near Earth.
