The human lungs can function satisfactorily up to a limit where the pressure differ- ence between the outside and inside of the

lungs is one-twentieth of an atmosphere. If a diver uses a snorkel for breathing, how far below the water can she swim? Assume the diver is in salt water whose density is 1025 kg/m3.

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.53 meters.

Explanation:

The given density of water is 1025 kg/m^3

Gauge pressure, that is, (P2 - P2) = Po/19

Here Po = 1.013 * 10^5 Pa

= 1.0.13 * 10^5 Pa / 19 = 5331.58 Pa

The change in pressure associated with the depth is given by the formula:  

P2 -P1 = ρgh  

h = P2 - P1 / ρg

h = 5331.58 Pa / 1025 kg/m^3 * 9.8 m/s^2

h = 0.53 m

Thus, the driver can swim 0.53 meters below water.

Musculo que tiene las características tanto de musculo esquelético como de musculo liso. Se encuentra en el corazón y sus contra
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

músculo cardíaco

Explanation:

Los 3 tipos de tejido muscular son 1-músculo cardíaco o miocardio (involuntario), 2-músculo liso (involuntario) y 3-músculo esquelético (voluntario). Las células del músculo cardíaco, las cuales son conocidas como 'miocardiocitos', poseen una apariencia estriada y forman la pared del corazón. Los miocardiocitos son alargados, ramificados, y poseen un núcleo central (son células uninucleadas, a diferencia de las células del músculo esquelético, las cuales son multinucleadas). Además, los micardicitos son más cortos (80 a 100 µm) y más anchos (aprox. 15 µm) que las células del músculo esquelético. Los miocardiocitos presentan uniones especializadas conocidas como discos intercalares, los cuales son un tipo de complejo de unión entre los límites de dos cardiomiocitos. En el citoplasma de los cardiomiocitos se encuentran las miofibrillas, las cuales son estructuras contráctililes que les confieren a las células musculares sus propiedades características de contracción y de elasticidad. En estas células (cardiomiocitos) las miofibrillas se disponen de manera longitudininal con un patrón estriado.
