The p wave on an electrocardiogram represents __________.

Physics
1 answer:
Harrizon [31]3 years ago
3 0

It represents the depolarization of the atria.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The P wave speaks to the depolarization of the left and right chamber and furthermore relates to atrial compression. Carefully, the atria contract a brief moment after the P wave starts. Since it is so little, atrial repolarization is typically not unmistakable on ECG.

In an ordinary ECG, there's three particular waves. The primary wave is the P wave, which speaks to the depolarization of the atria. This happens directly before the atria agreement and drive blood into the ventricles. The following wave is known as the QRS wave.

arlik [135]

Answer: a) 19.21m b) 3.92secs

Explanation:

a) Maximum height reached by the object is the height reached by an object before falling freely under gravity.

Maximum height = U²/2g

U is the initial velocity = 19.6m/s

g is acceleration due to gravity = 10m/s²

Maximum Height = 19.6²/2(10)

H = 19.21m

b) The time elapsed before the stone hits the ground is the time of flight T= 2U/g

T= 2(19.6)/10

T = 39.2/10

Time elapsed is 3.92secs

50POINTS! Find the orbital speed of a satellite in a circular orbit 1700km above the surface of the Earth. M_earth 5.97e24kg, r_
ivolga24 [154]
<h2>Answer: 7020.117 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The velocity of a satellite describing a circular orbit is<u> constant</u> and defined by the following expression:  

V=\sqrt{G\frac{M}{R}} (1)  

Where:  

G=6.674({10}^{-11})\frac{N{m}^{2}}{{kg}^{2}} is the gravity constant

M_{Earth}=5.97{10}^{24}kg the mass of the massive body around which the satellite is orbiting, in this case, the Earth .

R=r_{Earth}+h=8080000m the radius of the orbit (measured from the center of the planet to the satellite).  

This means the radius of the orbit is equal to <u>the sum</u> of the average radius of the Earth r_{Earth} and the altitude of the satellite above the Earth's surface h.

Note this orbital speed, as well as orbital period, does not depend on the mass of the satellite. It depends on the mass of the massive body (the Earth).

Now, rewriting equation (1) with the known values:

V=\sqrt{(6.674({10}^{-11})\frac{N{m}^{2}}{{kg}^{2}})\frac{5.97{10}^{24}kg}{8080000m}}

V=7020.117\frac{m}{s}

What is the defining feature of isotopes of the same element?
pogonyaev

Answer: Isotopes. An isotope is one of two or more forms of the same chemical element. Different isotopes of an element have the same number of protons in the nucleus, giving them the same atomic number, but a different number of neutrons giving each elemental isotope a different atomic weight.

Vector B has x y, and z components of 8.8,
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer: 14.122 units

Explanation:

We have the following vector:

\vec{V}=(x,y,z)=(8.8, 7.4, 8.2)

If we want to find its magnitude we have to use the following formula:

V=\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}}

V=\sqrt{(8.8units)^{2}+(7.4units)^{2}+(8.2 units)^{2}}

V=14.122 units  This is the magnitude of vector \vec{V}
