Particulate matter in the inhaled air is trapped by the __________.

Physics
1 answer:
VladimirAG [237]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Particulate matter in the inhaled air is trapped by the <u><em>epithelial mucus.</em></u>

Explanation:

The complete question is:

<em>"Particulate matter in the inhaled air is trapped by the __________. </em>

<em>a. tracheal carina </em>

<em>b. paranasal sinuses </em>

<em>c. pharyngeal muscles </em>

<em>d. epithelial mucus"</em>

The nostril is covered with a mucous membrane that, at its highest part, is formed by an epithelium that contains cells that produce mucus and hair cells covered with fine hairs, called vibratil cilia. Epithelial cells help protect against the entry of microorganisms. In other words, certain types of epithelial cells have tiny hairs called cilia, which help remove foreign substances.

So, <u><em>particulate matter in the inhaled air is trapped by the epithelial mucus.</em></u>

A monochromatic light beam is incident on a barium target that has a work function of 2.50 \mathrm{eV} . If a potential differen
leva [86]

The wavelength of the light beam required to turn back all the ejected electrons is 497 nm which is option (b).

  • Work function is a material property defined as the minimum amount of energy  required to infinitely remove electrons from the surface of a particular solid.
  • The potential difference required to support all emitted electrons is called the stopping potential which is given by v_0=\frac{K.E_m_a_x}{e} .....(1)
  • where v_0 is the stopping potential and e is the charge of the electron given by 1.6\times10^-^1^9 .

It is given that work function (Ф) of monochromatic light is 2.50 eV.

Einstein photoelectric equation  is given by:

K.E_m_a_x=E-\phi      ....(2)

where K.E(max) is the maximum kinetic energy.

Substituting (1) into (2) , we get

  ev_0=E-\phi\\1.6\times10^{-19} \times1=E-2.50\\E=1.6\times10^{-19}+2.50\\E=2.50eV

As we know that E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}  ....(3)

where Speed of light,c = 3\times10^8 m/s and Planck's constant , h = 6.63\times 10^-^1^9Js = 4.14\times 10^-^1^5 eVs

From equation (3) , we get

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E} \\\\\lambda=\frac{  4.14\times 10^-^1^5 \times 3 \times10^8}{2.50} \\\\\lambda=\frac{1240\times10^-^9}{2.50} \\\\\lambda=496.8\times10^-^9\\\\\lambda=497nm

One object (m1 = 0.220 kg) is moving to the right with a speed of 2.10 m/s when it is struck from behind by another object (m2 =
blagie [28]

Answer:

vf₁  = 6.86 m/s , to the right

vf₂ =  2.96 m/s, to the right

Explanation:

Theory of collisions  

Linear momentum is a vector magnitude (same direction of the velocity) and its magnitude is calculated like this:  

p=m*v  

where  

p:Linear momentum  

m: mass  

v:velocity  

There are 3 cases of collisions : elastic, inelastic and plastic.  

For the three cases the total linear momentum quantity is conserved:  

P₀ = Pf Formula (1)  

P₀ :Initial linear momentum quantity  

Pf : Final linear momentum quantity  

Data

m₁= 0.220 kg : mass of  object₁

m₂= 0.345 kg : mass of  object₂

v₀₁ =  2.1 m/s ₁ , to the right : initial velocity of m₁

v₀₂=   6 m/s, to the right  i :initial velocity of m₂

Problem development

We appy the formula (1):

P₀ = Pf  

m₁*v₀₁ + m₂*v₀₂ = m₁*vf₁ + m₂*vf₂  

We assume that the two objects move to the right at the end of the collision, so, the sign of the final speeds is positive:

(0.22)*(2.1) + (0.345)*(6) = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)*vf₂

2.532 = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)*vf₂ Equation (1)

Because the shock is elastic, the coefficient of elastic restitution (e) is equal to 1.

e= \frac{v_{f2}-v_{f1} }{v_{o1} -v_{o2} }

1*(v₀₁ - v₀₂ )  = (vf₂ -vf₁)

(2.1 - 6 )  = (vf₂ -vf₁)

-3.9 =  (vf₂ -vf₁)

vf₂ = vf₁ - 3.9

vf₂ = vf₁ - 3.9 Equation (2)

We replace Equation (2) in the Equation (1)

2.532 = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)*( vf₁ - 3.9)

2.532 = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)* (vf₁) -(0.345)( 3.9)

2.532 + 1.3455 = (0.565)*vf₁

3.8775 = (0.565)*vf₁

vf₁  = (3.8775) / (0.565)

vf₁  = 6.86 m/s, to the right

We replace vf₁  = 6.86 m/s in the Equation (2)

vf₂ =  6.86 - 3.9

vf₂ =  2.96 m/s, to the right
