Answer:
tympanic membrane (eardrum)
Explanation:
The sound waves spread through the air and reach the outer ear, into which they penetrate through the ear canal. In doing so, they stimulate the eardrum, which closes the inner end of the duct. By vibrating this membrane, the vibration of a chain of ossicles located in the middle ear is induced. These ossicles transmit their vibration to the oval window, which is a membranous structure that communicates the middle ear with the cochlea of the inner ear. When the oval membrane moves, it moves the liquid (perilymph) that fills one of the three cavities of the cochlea generating waves in it. These waves mechanically stimulate the sensory cells (hair cells) located in the organ of Corti, within the cochlea in the central cavity, the middle ramp. This cavity is filled with a liquid rich in K +, endolymph. The cells embedded in the endolymph, change their permeability to K + due to the movement of the cilia and respond by releasing a neurotransmitter that excites the nerve terminals, which initiate the auditory sensory pathway.
9*
m
Explanation:
Step 1:
We are given the initial length of the Pyrex glass dish at a particular temperature and need to calculate the change in the length when the temperature changes by 120° C. The coefficient of linear expansion of Pyrex is provided.
Step 2:
Change in length = Coefficient of linear expansion * Change in temperature * Initial length
Step 3:
Coefficient of linear expansion = 3*
/°C
Change in temperature = 120°C = 120 K
Initial length = 0.25 m
Step 4:
Change in length = 3* * 120 * 0.25 = 9* m
Answer:
We would not be able to make our way around the earth's surface, to read, to sculpt or to create technology because we cannot see!
Explanation:
The minimum angular separation that can be distinguished by an eye gives the angular resolution of the eye.
Given that the Angular resolution with infrared radiation is = 
equal to 
This resolution is very much greater than that of the eye 
The angular resolution that our eyes can see is about 
at arms length
Angular resolution of infrared = 
at arms length
We therefore cannot read, sculpt or create technology because we cannot see.
Answer:
Explanation:
One of the major differences between nuclear reactions and chemical reactions is that nuclear reactions involve larger amount of energy than chemical energy. <u>This is because the force between the protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is much higher than the force of attraction between electrons and the positively charged nucleus, hence nuclear reactions involves/requires a larger amount of energy (because it's reactions involve the nucleus) than chemical reactions (because it's reactions involve the electrons)</u>.
Thus, during nuclear fusion, two light nuclei are bombarded against one another to produce a larger/heavier nuclei with the release of large amount of energy (because the forces between the protons and neutrons are much higher) unlike when two atoms/molecules are chemically combined together to form a new molecule with the rearrangement of electrons in the valence shells of the participating molecules.
