Cerebrum: is the largest part of the brain and is composed of right and left hemispheres. It performs higher functions like interpreting touch, vision and hearing, as well as speech, reasoning, emotions, learning, and fine control of movement.

Cerebellum: is located under the cerebrum. Its function is to coordinate muscle movements, maintain posture, and balance.

Brainstem: acts as a relay center connecting the cerebrum and cerebellum to the spinal cord. It performs many automatic functions such as breathing, heart rate, body temperature, wake and sleep cycles, digestion, sneezing, coughing, vomiting, and swallowing.

Why were the rings of Uranus not observed directly from telescopes on the ground on Earth? How were they discovered?
leonid [27]

Answer:Explained below.

Explanation:

Uranus rings is made up of jet black, coal-like particles in small bands, making them difficult  to perceive from Earth.This indicates that they are probably composed of a mixture of the ice and a dark material. The nature of  material is dismal, but it might be some organic compounds greatly darkened by the charged particle irradiation from the Uranian magnetosphere. Rings were discovered by using a infrared telescope throughout  the occultation of a star as Uranus passed in front of it. The light from the star dimmed many times before it was obstructed by the disk of Uranus and subsequently, showing the presence of various distinct rings.

alex41 [277]

The sum of the series allows to find the result for the total distance that the ball bounces is:

            total distance = 59.52 in

A series is a set of things or numbers related by a specific operation.

They indicate that the ball falls from an initial height y₀ = 30 in. and it bounces 50% of the height and the process is repeated until it stops, see attached.

Let's build a table to observe the sequence.

drop   height    rebound

   1        30          15

   2       15            7.5

   3        7.5         3.75

If we call the first term y₀  

The first bounce can be found.

                             y₁ = \frac{y_o}{2}

The second bounces.

                             y_2 = \frac{y_1}{2}  \\y_2 = \frac{y_o}{4}

The third bounce.

                             y_3  = \frac{y_2}{2}  \\y_3 = \frac{y_0}{ 8}

By observing this table we can construct a series of the form

 

      Total distance = y_o \ ( 1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4}+  \frac{1}{8} + ... +\frac{1}{2n} )

The sum of the serie has a result of

        sum  = 127/64 = 1,984

Let's calculate

     distance total  = 30 1,984

     Distance total = 59.52 cm

In conclusion, using the sum of the series we can find the result for the total distance that the ball bounces is:

            total distance = 59.52 in
