What specific structures are in electroreceptors?

1 answer:

7 0

Electroreception is limited to aquatic environments because on here is the resistivity of the medium is low enough for electric currents to be generated as the result of electric fields of biological origin. In air, the resistivity of the environment is so high that electric fields from biological sources do not generate a significant electric current. Electroreceptor are found in a number of species of fish, and in at least one species of mammal, the Duck-Billed platypus.

In Case 1, a force F is pushing perpendicular on an object a distance L/2 from the rotation axis. In Case 2 the same force is pu

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

The answer is c) same.

Explanation:

When a force is applied at some point on a rigid body, the body makes a rotational movement about the axis. Said property of the force applied to rotate the body is calculated with a magnitude known as torque, which is defined as the moment of force at a capacity of that force to make a rotation around a specific point.

for case 1, the magnitude of the torque is equal to:

τ = F*(L/2)

For case 2, the torque magnitude equals:

τ = F*sin(30°) = F*(L/2)

It can be seen that in both cases it is the same torque.

On a part-time job, you are asked to bring a cylindrical iron rod of density 7800 kg/m3 , length 92.6 cm and diameter 2.95 cm fr

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

48.4293354946 N

Yes

Explanation:

d = Diameter of rod = 2.95 cm

h = Length of rod = 92.6 cm

$\rho$ = Density of rod = 7800 kg/m³

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Volume of rod

$V=\dfrac{1}{4}\pi d^2h\\\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{1}{4}\times \pi\times (2.95\times 10^{-2})^2\times 92.6\times 10^{-2}$

Mass is given by

$m=\rho V\\\Rightarrow m=7800\times \dfrac{1}{4}\times \pi\times (2.95\times 10^{-2})^2\times 92.6\times 10^{-2}\\\Rightarrow m=4.93673144695\ kg$

Weight is given by

$W=mg\\\Rightarrow W=4.93673144695\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow W=48.4293354946\ N$

The weight of the rod is 48.4293354946 N

The mass of the rod is 4.93673144695 kg which is light. So, I will be able to carry the rod without a cart.

How does changing the number of neutrons affect an atom?

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

If you change the number of neutrons in an atom, you get an isotope of the same element. The addition of a neutron can make an atom radioactive. When you change the number of protons in an atom, you will change the atom from one element to a different element.
