Helium is lighter than air from the lungs.

Explanation:

A balloon filled with the air from lungs will sink to the ground but a balloon filled with Helium floats because helium is lighter than air.

Air is a mixture of many gases.

The air from the lungs is predominantly made up of carbon dioxide and water vapor.

Gram per mole of carbon dioxide is 44. Water vapor is 18.
Compared to helium which is 4, we see that the gas is lighter.
Since the gas is lighter, it will float in air.
The main component of air around us is nitrogen gas with a gram per mole of 28.
A balloon filled with more of air from the lungs weigh more than that will filled air around and even far more than helium gas.
This will cause a helium filled balloon to float.

A generator uses a coil that has 100 turns and a 0.50-T magnetic field. The frequency of this generator is 60.0 Hz, and its emf

lana [24]

Answer:

38 m

Explanation:

Number of turns=N=100

Magnetic field=B=0.50 T

Frequency of the generator=f=60 Hz

Rms value of emf= $E_{rms}=120 V$

We have to find the length of the wire from which the coil is made.

Peak value of emf= $E_0=E_{rms}\sqrt 2=120\times \sqrt 2=169.7 V$

Length of wire= $4\sqrt{\frac{NE_0}{2\pi fB}}$

Substitute the values

Length of wire= $4\times \sqrt{\frac{169.7\times 100}{0.50\times 2\pi\times 60}}$

Length of wire=38 m

Hence, the length of wire from which the coil is made=38 m

A client experiences difficulty in performing the prone iso-abs exercise. Which of the following should be suggested as an regre

butalik [34]

Answer:

a. Quadruped arm and opposite leg raise

Explanation:

Quadruped arm and opposite leg lift

- Kneel on the floor, lean forward and place your hands down.

- Keep your knees in line with your hips and hands directly under your shoulders.

- Simultaneously raise one arm and extend the opposite leg, so that they are in line with the spine.

- Go back to the starting position.

This method is usually used as an alternative to iso-abs exercise or also known as a bridge, which allows you to exercise the abdominal and spinal area at the same time.

It is also used together with other exercises for the treatment of hyperlordosis.

If you are driving 95 km????h along a straight road and you look to the side for 2.0 s, how far do you travel during this inatte

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

52.7 m

Explanation:

Given that

speed of the vehicle, v = 95 km/h

time of inattentiveness, t = 2 s

distance travelled, s = ?

Since we have the speed in km/h and the time in s, it would be best if we converted one of them to make sure we have all units in the same rank.

95 km/h = 95 * 1000/3600 m/s

95 km/h = 95000/3600 m/s

95 km/h = 26.38 m/s

Now, we use our derived speed in m/s

Speed of a moving vehicle is given by,

v = s/t, where

v = speed in m/s

s = distance travelled, in m

t = time spent, in s

if we make d the subject of formula by rearranging the equation, we have

s = v * t

distance travelled, s = 26.38 * 2

distance travelled, s = 52.7 m

therefore, during this inattentive period, 52.7 m was travelled.

The correct answer is option C. <span>This is a demonstration of Boyle’s law. As the volume increases, the pressure decreases, and the marshmallow will grow larger.

Keisha follows the instructions for a demonstration on gas laws.
1. Place a small marshmallow in a large plastic syringe.
2. Cap the syringe tightly.
3. Pull the plunger back to double the volume of gas in the syringe.

Now, this activity is being done at the same temperature, because there is no mention of the temperature change. Thus, when the plunger is pulled back, the volume doubles, so pressure will decrease. Therefore, </span>This is a demonstration of Boyle’s law. As the volume increases, the pressure decreases, and the marshmallow will grow larger.
