At which position does the diver have the most gravitational potential energy

2 answers:

4 0

Directly vertical. The surface area is the smallest, allowing for the water upthrust to be kept to a minimum, whilst the mass is the same, which keeps the same weight and gravitational pull.

Potantial energy formula = m.g.h
m: mass
g: gravitational acceleration
h: height

m and g are the same. So, we must to look at to the height. At the vertical position, the potantional energy increase.

When the h increase, the energy will increases.

Potassium is a crucial element for the healthy operation of the human

Degger [83]

Answer:

The mass of the Potassium-40 is $m_{40}} = 2.88*10^{-6} kg$

The Dose per year in Sieverts is $Dose_s = 26.4 *10^{-10}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The isotopes of potassium in the body are Potassium-39, Potassium-40, and Potassium- 41

Their abundance is 93.26%, 0.012% and 6.728%

The mass of potassium contained in human body is $m = 3.0 g = \frac{3}{1000} = 0.0003 \ kg$ per kg of the body

The mass of the first body is $m_1 = 80 \ kg$

Now the mass of potassium in this body is mathematically evaluated as

$m_p = m * m_1$

substituting value

$m_p = 80 * 0.0003$

$m_p =0.024 kg$

The amount of Potassium-40 present is mathematically evaluated as

$m_{40}} =$ 0.012% * 0.024

$m_{40}} = \frac{0.012}{100} * 0.024$

$m_{40}} = 2.88*10^{-6} kg$

The dose of energy absorbed per year is mathematically represented as

$Dose = \frac{E}{m_1}$

Where E is the energy absorbed which is given as $E = 1.10 MeV = 1.10 * 10^6 * 1.602*10^{-19}$

Substituting value

$Dose = \frac{ 1.10 * 10^6 * 1.602*10^{-19}}{80}$

$Dose = 22*10^{-10} J/kg$

The Dose in Sieverts is evaluated as

$Dose_s = REB * Dose$

$Dose_s = 1.2 * 22*10^{-10}$

$Dose_s = 26.4 *10^{-10}$

Transformer is used in rectifier step up and step down voltage?<br>

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

While the use of the type of transformer in a rectifier depends on the voltage requirement or to meet desired operating conditions, a step-down transformer is used mainly to reduce the voltage. It is used to bring the high AC voltage level to a reasonable value or the desired output voltage.

What specific structures are in electroreceptors?

Slav-nsk [51]

Electroreception is limited to aquatic environments because on here is the resistivity of the medium is low enough for electric currents to be generated as the result of electric fields of biological origin. In air, the resistivity of the environment is so high that electric fields from biological sources do not generate a significant electric current. Electroreceptor are found in a number of species of fish, and in at least one species of mammal, the Duck-Billed platypus.

A 62 pound box is on an incline. Determine the minimum force P that would result in the box starting to slide up the incline. (i

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

F > W * sin(α)

Explanation:

The force needed for the box to start sliding up depends on the incline (α).

The external forces acting on the box would be the weight, the normal reaction and the lifting force that is applied to make it slide up.

These forces can be decomposed on their normal and tangential (to the slide plane) components.

The weight will be split into

Wn = W * cos(α) (in normal direction)

Wt = W * sin(α) (in tangential direction)

The normal reaction will be alligned with the normal axis, and will be equal to -Wn

N = -W* cos(α) (in normal direction)

To mke the box slide up, a force must be applied, that is opposite to the tangential component of the weight and at least a little larger

F > |-W * sin(α)| (in tangential direction)
