A prisoner tries to escape from a Nashville, Tennessee prison by hiding in the laundry truck. The prisoner is surprised when the

truck is stopped at the gate. A guard enters the truck and handcuffs him. "How did you know I was here?" the prisoner asks. "The heartbeat detector," says the guard.A heartbeat detector senses the tiny vibrations caused by blood pumped from the heart. With each heartbeat, blood is pumped upward to the aorta, and the body recoils slightly, conserving the momentum of the blood-body system. The body's vibrations are transferred to the inside of the truck. Vibration sensors on the outside of the truck are linked to a geophone, or signal amplifier, attached to a computer. A wave analyzer program in the computer compares vibration signals from the truck to wavelets produced by heartbeat vibrations. The wave analyzer distinguishes a person's heartbeat from other vibrations in the truck or in the surrounding environment, allowing guards to detect the presence of a human in the truck.What does the heartbeat detector sense?1-Electric signals caused by electric dipole charges produced on the heart.2-Body vibrations caused by blood pumped from the heart.3-Sound caused by breathing.4-Slight uncontrollable reflexive motions of an enclosed person.5-All of the above

Water has a high heat capacity. What does this term mean? a) Water is relatively resistant to an increase in temperature. b) Wat
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:a) Water is relatively resistant to an increase in temperature

Explanation:

Water has relatively high heat capacity i.e. it requires high amount of heat to raise a little increase in temperature.

Heat capacity is defined as ability of molecule to absorb heat . Mathematically heat capacity is defined as

C=\frac{Q}{\Delta T}

where C=heat\ capacity

Q=heat\ interaction

\Delta T=change\ in\ Temperature

Technician A says that shop air pressure usually ranges from 100–150 psi. Technician B says shop air pressure is around 300 psi.
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

technician A.

Explanation:

Commonly,  air pressure rating of standard shop air compressor's is between the range of 100 psi and 150 psi. And over the years since, the plant pressure creep's up , the level of pressure increases from 100 psi to at max 150 psi but not more than that. Therefore, in the given question technician A is correct and technician B is incorrect.

From the diagram The value of cos C × sin A = \frac{3}{4}

<h3>Determine the numerical value of cos C × sin A</h3>

First step : determine the values of cos C and sin A

cos C = adjacent / hypotenuse

          = a / b

          = \sqrt{3}  / 2

          = √3/2

sin A = sin 60⁰

         = √3/2

Therefore the numerical value of cos C * sin A = \frac{3}{4}

In conclusion From the diagram The value of cos C × sin A = \frac{3}{4}
