Answer:IU (international unit): An international unit (IU) is an internationally accepted amount of a substance.

                    This type of measure is used for the fat-soluble vitamins (such as vitamins AD and E) and certain hormones, enzymes, and biologicals (such as vaccines).

Two coils close to each other have a mutual inductance of 32 mH. If the current in one coil decays according to I=I0e−αt, where
fiasKO [112]

The emf induced in the second coil is given by:

V = -M(di/dt)

V = emf, M = mutual indutance, di/dt = change of current in the first coil over time

The current in the first coil is given by:

i = i₀e^{-at}

i₀ = 5.0A, a = 2.0×10³s⁻¹

i = 5.0e^(-2.0×10³t)

Calculate di/dt by differentiating i with respect to t.

di/dt = -1.0×10⁴e^(-2.0×10³t)

Calculate a general formula for V. Givens:

M = 32×10⁻³H, di/dt = -1.0×10⁴e^(-2.0×10³t)

Plug in and solve for V:

V = -32×10⁻³(-1.0×10⁴e^(-2.0×10³t))

V = 320e^(-2.0×10³t)

We want to find the induced emf right after the current starts to decay. Plug in t = 0s:

V = 320e^(-2.0×10³(0))

V = 320e^0

V = 320 volts

We want to find the induced emf at t = 1.0×10⁻³s:

V = 320e^(-2.0×10³(1.0×10⁻³))

V = 43 volts

An astronaut inside a spacecraft, which protects her from harmful radiation, is orbiting a black hole at a distance of 120 km fr
mestny [16]

An astronaut inside a spacecraft, which protects her from harmful radiation, is orbiting a black hole at a distance of 120 km from its center. The black hole is 5.00 times the mass of the sun and has a Schwarzschild radius of 15.0 km. The astronaut is positioned inside the spaceship such that one of her 0.030 kg ears is 6.0 cm farther from the black hole than the center of mass of the spacecraft and the other ear is 6.0 cm closer.

What is the tension between her ears?

Would the astronaut find it difficult to keep from being torn apart by the gravitational forces?

Answer:

The tension between the ears = 2.07 KN

The astronaut will find it difficult to keep and will eventually be in trouble because the tension is now greater compared to the tension in the human tissues.

Explanation:

Given that:

Orbital radius of the spacecraft (R) = 120 Km = 120 × 10³ m

Mass of the black hole (m) = 5 \ * (M \ _{sun})

where : M_{sun} = 1.99*10^{33} \ kg

Then; we have:

 m = 5*(1.99*10^{30} \ kg ) \\ = 9.95*10^{30} kg

Schwarzchild radius of the black hole

r - 15.0 km

Mass of each ear m_{ear} = 0.030 \ kg

Farther distance between one ear and the black hole (d) = 6.0 cm

= 0.06 m

Closer distance between the other ear and the black home is (d) 6.0 cm

= 0.6 cm

NOW, If we assume that the tension force should be T; then definitely the two ears will posses the same angular velocity .

The net force on the ear closer to the black hole will be:

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R-d)}- T = m_{ear} (R -  d) \omega^2

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R-d)^2}- \frac{T}{(R-d)} = m_{ear} \omega^2 \ ----> \ (1)

The net force on the ear farther to the black hole is :

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R+d)}- T = m_{ear} (R +  d) \omega^2

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R+d)^2}- \frac{T}{(R+d)} = m_{ear} \omega^2 \ ----> \ (2)

Equating equation (1) and (2) & therefore making (T) the subject of the formula; we have:

T = \frac{3GMm_{ear}d}{R^3}

T = \frac{3(6.67*10^{-11}N.m^2/kg^2)(1.95*10^{30}kg)(0.03kg)(0.06m)}{(120*10^3m)^3}

T = 2073.9 N\\T = 2.07 KN

The tension between the ears = 2.07 KN

The astronaut will find it difficult to keep and will eventually be in trouble because the tension is now greater compared to the tension in the human tissues.

How does an environmental change (ex. hurricane, drought, etc.) affect the organisms that are adapted to the environment before
rjkz [21]
The environmental changes can will negatively affect different organisms differently, for example some organisms might die due to failure of the organisms to adapt to the new changes. Some organisms will be forced to migrate in order to counter these changes, this may lead to this organisms leaving their old living routine and adapt to the new methods of living, this may lead to evolution caused by new environment.
