Explanation:

-body temp: when cold, erector muscle contract, hair raise, vasoconstriction occurs, sweat production reduces, muscle shiver to enhance metabolism, and thyroid gland secret more thyroxine to enhance metabolism

-water potential balance: when we are thirsty, pituitary gland secret more ADH, kidney tubules become more permeable to water, so more water re-absorbed, less urine produced, retaining more water.

The energy of microwaves is less than the energy of ultraviolet light. Which comparison of the energies of
adell [148]

Answer:

A. Gamma rays have higher energy than microwaves because gamma rays have shorter wavelengths.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves produced by the interaction between both magnetic and electric fields. These waves have some properties that make them to be arranged in a definite form producing an electromagnetic spectrum.

The spectrum has a general property of which as the wavelength of the waves increases, the frequency decreases. And vice versa.

Thus, the energy of the waves increases as the frequency increases.

Gamma rays have higher frequency, but shorter wavelength. While microwaves has lower frequency, but higher wavelength.

Complete Question

An aluminum "12 gauge" wire has a diameter d of 0.205 centimeters. The resistivity ρ of aluminum is 2.75×10−8 ohm-meters. The electric field in the wire changes with time as E(t)=0.0004t2−0.0001t+0.0004 newtons per coulomb, where time is measured in seconds.

I = 1.2 A at time 5 secs.

Find the charge Q passing through a cross-section of the conductor between time 0 seconds and time 5 seconds.

Answer:

The charge is  Q =2.094 C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The diameter of the wire is  d =  0.205cm = 0.00205 \ m

     The radius of  the wire is  r =  \frac{0.00205}{2} = 0.001025  \ m

     The resistivity of aluminum is 2.75*10^{-8} \ ohm-meters.

       The electric field change is mathematically defied as

         E (t) =  0.0004t^2 - 0.0001 +0.0004

     

Generally the charge is  mathematically represented as

       Q = \int\limits^{t}_{0} {\frac{A}{\rho} E(t) } \, dt

Where A is the area which is mathematically represented as

       A =  \pi r^2 =  (3.142 * (0.001025^2)) = 3.30*10^{-6} \ m^2

 So

       \frac{A}{\rho} =  \frac{3.3 *10^{-6}}{2.75 *10^{-8}} =  120.03 \ m / \Omega

Therefore

      Q = 120 \int\limits^{t}_{0} { E(t) } \, dt

substituting values

      Q = 120 \int\limits^{t}_{0} { [ 0.0004t^2 - 0.0001t +0.0004] } \, dt

     Q = 120 [ \frac{0.0004t^3 }{3} - \frac{0.0001 t^2}{2} +0.0004t] }  \left | t} \atop {0}} \right.

From the question we are told that t =  5 sec

           Q = 120 [ \frac{0.0004t^3 }{3} - \frac{0.0001 t^2}{2} +0.0004t] }  \left | 5} \atop {0}} \right.

          Q = 120 [ \frac{0.0004(5)^3 }{3} - \frac{0.0001 (5)^2}{2} +0.0004(5)] }

         Q =2.094 C

Which force is reasonable for making fusion possible in the sun?
andreev551 [17]

The force is reasonable for making fusion possible in the Sun is heat energy.

<h3>What is nuclear fission and fusion?</h3>

When the slow moving neutrons are bombarded with the heavy radioactive nuclei, the product is the more number of neutrons are produced with the large amount of energy. This multiplying process is called nuclear fusion.

The amount of energy produced in such a reaction can be calculated using the equivalence of mass and energy relationship.

E = mc²

The same happens in nuclear fusion where large amount of energy is needed to make more heavy nuclei.

Thus, fusion requires heat energy to continue the reaction.

A 37 cm long solenoid, 1.8 cm in diameter, is to produce a 0.50 T magnetic field at its center. If the maximum current is 4.4 A,
taurus [48]

Answer:

33,458.71 turns

Explanation:

Given: L = 37 cm = 0.37 m, B= 0.50 T, I = 4.4 A, n= number of turn per meter

μ₀ = Permeability of free space = 4 π × 10 ⁻⁷

Solution:

We have B = μ₀ × n × I

⇒ n = B/ (μ₀ × I)

n = 0.50 T / ( 4 π × 10 ⁻⁷ × 4.4 A)

n = 90,428.94 turn/m

No. of turn through 0.37 m long solenoid = 90,428.94 turn/m × 0.37

= 33,458.71 turns
