Answer:

The conditions that will not cause conduction deafness is <em>damage to cochlear hair cells, </em>option B.

Explanation:

Conduction deafness occurs there is an alteration that blocks the transmission of sound from the external and middle ear to the inner ear. It is a mechanical problem in the ear canal or the middle ear.

The outer ear is the external portion that collects sonar waves and directs them to the inner ear. Three structures compose the external ear, these are the auditory pavilion, the ear canal, and the eardrum.  Damages in any of these parts might produce conduction deafness.

The middle ear is located between the eardrum and the oval window of the inner ear, to which it transmits sounds. the middle ear is composed of three little bones called ossicles, the oval window, the circular window, and the Eustachian tube.  Any damage or alteration in this area will also cause conduction deafness.

There are different causes of deafness, such as earwax plug, <u>damage in the eardrum,</u> otitis, traumatisms or malformations, tumors, outer ear infections, <u>imflamation</u>, fluid accumulation, among others. Any of these might impede the properly sound conduction, thus the sound can not reach the inner ear.

Complete question: The chart shows the movement of a ball after several seconds.

Column A is on the x-axis, and Column B is on the y-axis. Which titles should replace A and B?

a. Column A should be “Time,” and Column B should be “Position.”

b. Column A should be “Position,” and Column B should be “Time.”

c. Column A should be “Velocity,” and Column B should be “Speed.”

d. Column A should be “Speed,” and Column B should be “Velocity.”

Answer:

Column A should be "Time," and Column B should be  "Position"

Explanation:

In general, the first column always refers to the x-axis, this is the independent variables. While the second column refers to the y-axis, the dependent variables.

Option A) names Time and Position to the columns. This seems to be correct as time is an independent variable, while the ball position depends on time. The x-axes is named "time", and the Y-axes is named "ball position".

Option B) is not possible because the Position is not the independent variable, and time is not the dependent variable.

Option C) and D) are not possible, as both of them are variables that depend on time.

Oliga [24]

ANSWER: IT'S CALLED THE ZEROTH LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS

EXPLANATION:

The zeroth law of thermodynamics state that there's no heat transferred between two objects in thermal equilibrium (i.e having the same temperature). This phenomenon depicts that there's balance in the amount of temperature in all the three entities.

This phenomenon was credited to Sir Ralph Howard Fowler, a British physicist and astronomer during his lifetime.

A scientific paper by Carathéodory also added that when two systems S1 and S2 are made to reach equilibrium with a third system S3 under close thermal conditions, systems S1 and S2 are said to be in mutual equilibrium.
