What is the difference between a negative feedback system and a positive feedback system?

Physics
1 answer:
Anni [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The negative feedback is responsible for maintaining equilibrium (stability) in a system as it lessens effects, which is contrary to positive feedback which increases reaction and moves a system further away from equilibrium (stability), It does so by amplifying the effects of a product or event and occurs when something needs to happen quickly. e.g

  • Insulin lowers down blood sugar levels, so when the body detects that it has too much sugar, the pancreas is prompted to release insulin and only stops when balance is achieved; hence, negative feedback.  
  •  When there is a tear on the skin, a chemical is released. This chemical causes platelets in the blood to activate, hence they release a chemical which signals more platelets to activate, until the wound is clotted, positive feedback.

The heating of groundwater forms
KIM [24]
The appropriate answer is c. geysers. A geysers a hot water fountain that spouts intermittently with great force, frequently accompanied by a thunderous roar. The world famous Old Faithful is located in Yellowstone National Park. This geyser erupts every 65 min sending a jet of water almost 60 meters into the air. Sinkholes and caves are formed by the action of groundwater on carbonate rocks which causes them to colapse and former these structures.

You are observing the radiation from a distant active galaxy and you notice that the amplitude of the signal varies in strength
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Period of the signal.

Explanation:

So, this question is all about a concept in physics or astronomy which is called or known as Radiation Astronomy and Galactic Nuclei that are active. This concept talks most about Quasars; a powerful radiating object which derives its power from black holes.

When You take a look at Quasars, we get the to know that the more you think you can see, the more they move away from us.

Thus, when "You are observing the radiation from a distant active galaxy and you notice that the amplitude of the signal varies in strength regularly over a certain period. The maximum possible size for the source of this radiation can now be calculated from the "PERIOD OF THE SIGNAL.

NB: not the amplitude but the period.

vovangra [49]
Answer: 3.5 seconds

EXPLANATION:

Using the formula:
v = u + at
And taking the upwards direction as positive, we have the following information:

u = 35 m/s
a = -10m/s^2 (this is acceleration due to gravity)

At the top of its path, the apple will have a velocity of 0 m/s, therefore:

v = 0m/s

Once you substitute everything into the formula, you get:

0 = 35 + (-10)t

Therefore, t = 35/10 = 3.5 seconds
