Describe two homeostasis mechanisms

Physics
1 answer:
frosja888 [35]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The interpretation including its given subject is listed in the subsection below on explanatory.

Explanation:

Homeostasis should be any mechanism of self-regulation from which an individual seeks to preserve equilibrium when adapting to requirements better suited towards its existence.

<u>Two mechanisms are given below:</u>

  • Blood Pressure: Pressure is regulated by either a homeostatic system through which the blood becomes circulated throughout the individual's body.
  • Body Temperature: The body requires multiple forms of heat regulatory oversight such as:
  1. Endothermic is something a living creature can hold one's own internal body temperature.  
  2. Ectothermic is really where the external atmosphere absorbs temperature.

Car X traveled 3d distance in t time.  Car Y traveled 2d distance in t time. Therefore, the speed of car X, is 3d/t,  the speed of car Y, is 2d/t. Since speed is the distance taken in a given time.

In figure-2, they are at the same place, we are asked to find car Y's position when car X is at line-A. We can calculate the time car X needs to travel to there. Let's say that car X reaches line-A in t' time.

V_x .t' = 3d\\ \frac{3d}{t} .t' = 3d\\ t'=t

Okay, it takes t time for car X to reach line-A. Let's see how far does car Y goes.

V_y.t = \frac{2d}{t} .t = 2d

We found that car Y travels 2d distance. So, when car X reaches line-A, car Y is just a d distance behind car X.

Monica [59]

Answer:

(B) Dark energy does not exist and there is much more matter than current evidence suggests.

Explanation:

The repulsive force which is accelerating expansion of the universe is called as dark energy. Most of matter present in the universe is the dark matter of about eighty five percent.

So, a collapsing universe would not have the dark energy and there is more matter which is not the dark matter. This theory is rejected because expansion of the universe is observable.

The drawing shows a large cube (mass = 21.0 kg) being accelerated across a horizontal frictionless surface by a horizontal force
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The blocks must be pushed with a force higher than 359 Newtons horizontally in order to accomplish this friction levitation feat.

Explanation:

The first step in resolving any physics problem is to draw the given scenario (if possible), see the attached image to have an idea of the objects and forces involved.

The large cube in red is being pushed from the left by a force \vec{P} whose value is to be found. That cube has its own weight \vec{w}_1=m_1\vec{g}, and it is associated with the force of gravity which points downward. Newton's third law stipulates that the response from the floor is an upward pointing force on the cube, and it's called the normal force \vec{N}_1.

A second cube is being pushed by the first, and since the force \vec{P} is strong enough it is able to keep such block suspended as if it were glued to the first one, due to friction. As in the larger cube, the smaller one has a weight \vec{w}_2=m_2\vec{g} pointing downwards, but the normal force in this block doesn't point upwards since its 'floor' isn't below it, but in its side, therefore the normal force directs it to the right as it is shown in the picture. Normal forces are perpendicular to the surface they contact. The final force is the friction between both cubes, that sets a resistance of one moving parallel the other. In this case, the weight of the block its the force pointing parallel to the contact surface, so the friction opposes that force, and thus points upwards. Friction forces can be set as Fr=\mu~N, where \mu is the coefficient of static friction between the cubes.

Now that all forces involved are identified, the following step is to apply Newton's second law and add all the forces for each block that point in the same line, and set it as equal its mass multiplied by its acceleration. The condition over the smaller box is the relevant one so its the first one to be analyzed.

In the vertical component: \Sigma F^2_y=Fr-w_2=m_2 a_y Since the idea is that it doesn't slips downwards, the vertical acceleration should be set to zero a_y=0, and making explicit the other forces: \mu N_2-m_2g=0\quad\Rightarrow (0.710)N_2-(4.5)(10)=0\quad\Rightarrow N_2=(4.5)(10)/(0.710)\approx 63.38 [N]. In the last equation gravity's acceleration was rounded to 10 [m/s^2].

In its horizontal component: \Sigma F^2_x=N_2=m_2 a_x, this time the horizontal acceleration is not zero, because it is constantly being pushed. However, the value of the normal force and the mass of the block are known, so its horizontal acceleration can be determined: 63.38=(4.5) a_x \quad \Rightarrow a_x=(63.38)/(4.5)\approx 14.08 [m/s^2]. Notice that this acceleration is higher than the one of gravity, and it is understandable since you should be able to push it harder than gravity in order for it to not slip.

Now the attention is switched to the larger cube. The vertical forces are not relevant here, since the normal force balances its weight so that there isn't vertical acceleration. The unknown force comes up in the horizontal forces analysis: \Sigma F_x=P=m a_x, since the force \vec{P} is not only pushing the first block but both, the mass involved in this equation is the combined masses of the blocks, the acceleration is the same for both blocks since they move together; P=(21.0+4.5) 14.08\approx 359.04 [N]. The resulting force is quite high but not impossible to make by a human being, this indicates that this feat of friction suspension is difficult but feasable.

A harmonic oscillator starts with an amplitude of 20.0 cm. After 10.0 s, the amplitude decreases to 15.0 cm. If the linear dampi
tia_tia [17]

Answer: the amount of mass is oscillating is 34.8 kg

Explanation:

Given that;

amplitude A = 20.0 cm

time t = 10 s

amplitude decreases x = 15.0 cm

damping coefficient b = 2.00 N.s/m

amount of mass is oscillating = ?

we know that; amplitude can be expressed as;

x = Ae^-(∝t)

we substitute

15 = 20e^-∝(10)

∝ = 0.02877 s⁻¹

Hence mass m will be;

m = b/2∝

we substitute

m = (2 N.s/m) / ( 2 × 0.02877 s⁻¹)

m = 34.8 kg

Therefore the amount of mass is oscillating is 34.8 kg
