Answer:

THE BOHR SHIFT ON THE OXYGEN-HEMOGLOBIN DISSOCIATION CURVE IS PRODUCED BY CHANGES IN THE CONCENTRATION OF CARBON IV OXIDE.

Explanation:

The oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve shows the relationship between the saturated hemoglobin concentration and oxygen. It shows how the blood hold on to and releases oxygen. The Bohr shift can occur as a result of changes in concentration of carbon iv oxide and other factors such as acidity or pH, 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate, exercise, also temperature of the body. These factors contributes to the right or left shift on the curve. Carbon iv oxide prevents the binding of oxygen to the hemoglobin. The is because hemoglobin has the same binding site for both oxygen and carbon iv oxide. Carbon iv oxide increase also leads to a change in the pH of the blood through the formation of bicarbonate ion. Bicarbonate ion formation causes reduced acidity and therefore lead a shift in the dissociation curve for more of the carbon iv oxide to be excreted as hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen reduces. And when the concentration of carbon iv oxide is low in the plasma, acidity increases and this provides more affinity for oxygen by the hemoglobin.

A charged particle is moving in a uniform magnetic field at a speed of 8.2Ã10^3 m/s in a direction 87Â° from the direction of th

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Magnetic field, B = 0.042 T

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of charged particle, $v=8.2\times 10^3\ m/s$

Angle between velocity and the magnetic field, $\theta=87$

Charge, $q=5.7\ \mu C=5.7\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Magnetic force, F = 0.002 N

The magnetic force is given by :

$F=qvB\ sin\theta$

B is the magnetic field

$B=\dfrac{F}{qv\ sin\theta}$

$B=\dfrac{0.002}{5.7\times 10^{-6}\times 8.2\times 10^3\times sin(87)}$

B = 0.042 T

So, the strength of the magnetic field is 0.042 Tesla. Hence, this is the required solution.

two forces whose magnitude are in ratio of 3:5 gives a resultant of 35N.if the angle of inclination is 60degree.calculate the ma

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

the magnitude of first force = 3 × 5= 15 N

ANd, the magnitude of second force = 5 × 5 = 25 N

Explanation:

The computation of the magnitude of the each force is shown below:

Provided that

Ratio of forces = 3: 5

Let us assume the common factor is x

Now

first force = 3x

And, the second force = 5x

Resultant force = 35 N

The Angle between the forces = 60 degrees

Based on the above information

Resultant force i.e. F = √ F_1^2 +F_2^2 + 2 F_1F_2cos $\theta$

35 = √[(3x)²+ (5x)²+ 2 (3x)(5x) cos 60°]

35 =√ 9x² + 25x² + 15x² (cos 60° = 0.5)

35 = √49 x²

x = 5

So, the magnitude of first force = 3 × 5= 15 N

ANd, the magnitude of second force = 5 × 5 = 25 N

When a car slows down suddenly, passengers in the car tend to move toward the front of the car. What is this due to?

Neko [114]

Hey there Kendrell!

Yes, this is very true, when the car slows down, our bodies will tend to lean forward a little bit, and this is actually due to the "motion of inertia".

Inertia allows for this to happen, this is why in this case, we have this case.

Hope this helps.

A boy pulls a 28.0-kg box with a 230-N force at 35° above a horizontal surface. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between t

ddd [48]

Answer:

1977.696 J

Explanation:

Given;

Weight of the box = 28.0 kg

Force applied by the boy = 230 N

angle between the horizontal and the force = 35°

Therefore,

the horizontal component of the force = 230 × cosθ

= 230 × cos 35°

= 188.405 N

Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.24

Force by friction, f = μN

here,

N = Normal force = Mass × acceleration due to gravity

N = 28 × 9.81 = 274.68 N

therefore,

f = 0.24 × 274.68

f = 65.9232 N

Now,

work done by the boy, W₁ = 188.405 N × Displacement

= 188.405 N × 30

= 5652.15 J

and,

the

work done by the friction, W₂ = - 65.9232 N × Displacement

= - 65.9232 N × 30 m

= - 1977.696 J

[ since the friction force acts opposite to the direction of motion, therefore the workdone will be negative]
