Before we could discuss this in any specific detail, I think we would have to
know the angles.  A generic discussion without actual numbers for the angles
would be just plain too confusing.

The general approach is that the vertical components of both tensions
add up to 20N, and the horizontal components are equal but in opposite
directions.  That's the only way that the mass is hanging motionless.

You have to find the horizontal and vertical components of the tensions
by using the angles and maybe the lengths of the ropes.

A thermosensory neuron in the skin converts heat energy to nerve impulses via a conversion called
Sav [38]

Answer:

Sensory transduction

Explanation:

The term sensory transduction refers to the conversion process where the sensory energy is converted in order to change the potential of a membrane.

In other words, it can defined as the process of energy conversion such that stimulus can be transmitted or received by the sensory receptors and the nervous system may initiate with the sensory receptors.

Transduction takes in all of the five receptors of the body. Thus skin is also one of the receptors and hence conversion of heat energy into impulses takes place with the help of thermo-sensory neuron.

A heat pump absorbs heat from the atmosphere at a rate of 30 kW. If work is being done to run this heat pump at a rate of 7.7 kW
Volgvan

Answer:

Option D 3.9

Explanation:

First, you need to use the correct equation which is the following:

COP = Q/W

Where:

Q = heat absorbed

W = work done by the pump

COP = coefficient of perfomance

We have all the data, so, all you need to do is replace in the above expression and you shoould get the correct result:

COP = 30 / 7.7

COP = 3.896

This result you can round it to 3.9. option D.

A wheel free to rotate about its axis that is not frictionless is initially at rest. A constant external torque of +46 N·m is ap
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let Torque due to friction be

F  

Net torque

= 46 - F

Angular impulse = change in angular momentum

=(  46 - F ) x 17  = I X 580

When external torque is removed , only friction creates torque reducing its speed to zero in 120 s so

Angular impulse = change in angular momentum

F  x 120 = I X 580

(  46 - F ) x 17 = F  x 120

137 F = 46 x 17

F = 5.7 Nm

b )

Putting this value in first equation

5.7 x 120 = I x 580

I = 1.18 kg m²
