What must the condition of the alveoli be in order for gas exchange to occur

Physics
1 answer:
aliya0001 [1]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

There are 5 main conditions of the alveoli for proper gaseous exchange to in the lungs.

Explanation

Alveoli is found in the lungs of mammals, birds and reptiles. It is the part of the lungs where gaseous exchange really occurs.

Alveoli has a shape of that of balloon but indeed smaller than the real balloon. It allows the passage of oxygen and carbon dioxide

The five main conditions includes:

  1. The Alveoli must have large surface to volume ratio which increase the gases that could be exchanged
  2. The wall must be thin. This can shorten diffusion distance.
  3. Alveoli must be very moist so that oxygen and carbon dioxide can pass through the solution
  4. Alveoli must be well supplied with blood
  5. Alveoli must be permeable

Which part of the wave is changed when there is interference?
Rasek [7]
When 2 waves interefere (or collide with eachother), it usually affects the crest of the wave. If both waves collide with both crests, it will create an amplified crest, and the waves will pass through eachother afterwards. If a trough of a wave meets a crest, it will cause the crest to be lowered shortly before both continue on.

Two sources emit beams of light of wavelength 550 nm. The light from source A has an intensity of 10 μW/m2, and the light from s
alexira [117]

Answer:

<em>A) Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A.</em>

Explanation:

If we have two waves with the same wavelength, then their intensity is proportional to their power, or the energy per unit time.

We also know that the amount of photon present in an electromagnetic beam is proportional to the energy of the beam, hence the amount of beam per second is proportional to the power.

With these two facts, we can say that the intensity is a measure of the amount of photon per second in an electromagnetic beam. So we can say that <em>beam B carries twice as more power than beam A, or Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A.</em>

A diffraction grating produces a first-order bright fringe that is 0.18 m away from the central bright fringe on a flat screen.
Georgia [21]

Answer:

The wavelength of the light is 562.5 nm

Solution:

As per the question:

Order, n = 1

Slit separation, d = 2.5\times 10^{- 6}\ m

Distance from the bright fringe, y = 0.18 m

Distance between the screen and the grating, D = 0.8 m

Now,

We know from the eqn for diffraction:

n\lambda = dsin\theta

n = 1

\lambda = dsin\theta            (1)

Also,

For very small angle, \theta:

sin\theta ≈ tan\theta = \frac{y}{D} = \frac{0.18}{0.8} = 0.225

Using the above value in eqn (1):

\lambda = 2.5\times 10^{- 6}\times 0.225 = 5.625\times 10^{- 7}\ m = 562.5\ nm
