Long Snorkel: Inhalation of a breath occurs when the muscles surrounding the human lungs move to increase the volume of the lung

s, thereby reducing the air pressure in the lungs. The difference between the reduced pressure in the lungs and outside atmospheric pressure causes a flow of air into the lungs. The maximum reduction in air pressure that muscles of the chest can produce in the lungs against the surrounding air pressure on the chest and body is about 3740 Pa. Consider the longest snorkel that a human can operate. The minimum pressure difference needed to take in a breath is about 188 Pa. Find the depth h that a person could swim to and still breathe with this snorkel

Answer:

h = 0.362 m

Explanation:

The pressure equation with depth is

      P₂ = P_{atm} +ρ g h

The gauge pressure is

       P2 -  P_{atm} = ρ g h

This is the pressure that muscles can create

       P₂ -  P_{atm}= 3740 Pa

But still the person needs a small pressure for the transfer of gases, so

      P₂ -  P_{atm} = 3740 - 188 = 3552 Pa

This is the maximum pressure difference, where the person can still breathe,

Let's clear the height

      h = 3552 / ρ g

      h = 3552 / (1000 9.8)

      h = 0.362 m

This is the maximum depth where the person can still breathe normally.

The intensity of light from a star varies inversely as the square of the distance. If you lived on a planet ten times farther aw
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

the intensity of the sun on the other planet is a hundredth of that of the intensity of the sun on earth.

That is,

Intensity of sun on the other planet, Iₒ = (intensity of the sun on earth, Iₑ)/100

Explanation:

Let the intensity of light be represented by I

Let the distance of the star be d

I ∝ (1/d²)

I = k/d²

For the earth,

Iₑ = k/dₑ²

k = Iₑdₑ²

For the other planet, let intensity be Iₒ and distance be dₒ

Iₒ = k/dₒ²

But dₒ = 10dₑ

Iₒ = k/(10dₑ)²

Iₒ = k/100dₑ²

But k = Iₑdₑ²

Iₒ = Iₑdₑ²/100dₑ² = Iₑ/100

Iₒ = Iₑ/100

Meaning the intensity of the sun on the other planet is a hundredth of that of the intensity on earth.

true or false:acceleration toward the center of a curved or circular path is called gravitational acceleration.
nalin [4]
Nope. It's called 'centripetal' acceleration. The force that created it MAY be gravitational, but it doesn't have to be. For things on the surface of the Earth moving in circles, it's never gravity.

A cylindrical capacitor has an inner conductor of radius 2.7 mmmm and an outer conductor of radius 3.1 mmmm. The two conductors
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

(A) Capacitance per unit length = 4.02 \times 10^{-10}

(B) The magnitude of charge on both conductor is Q = 4.22 \times 10^{-19} C and the sign of charge on inner conductor is +Q and the sign on outer conductor is -Q

Explanation:

Given :

Radius of inner part of conductor  (R_{1}) = 2.7 \times 10^{-3} m

Radius of outer part of conductor  (R_{2}) = 3.1 \times 10^{-3} m

The length of the capacitor (l) = 3 \times 10^{-3} m

(A)

Capacitance is purely geometrical property. It depends only on length, radius of conductor.

From the formula of cylindrical capacitor,      

     C = \frac{2\pi\epsilon_{o} l }{ln\frac{R_{2} }{R_{1} } }

Where, \epsilon_{o} = 8.85 \times 10^{-12}

But we need capacitance per unit length so,

     \frac{C}{l}  = \frac{2\pi\epsilon_{o}  }{ln\frac{R_{2} }{R_{1} } }

capacitance per unit length = \frac{6.28 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12} }{ln(1.148)} = 4.02 \times 10^{-10}

(B)

The charge on both conductors is given by,

     Q = C \Delta V

Where, C = capacitance of cylindrical capacitor and value of C = 12.06 \times 10^{-13} F, \Delta V = 350 \times 10^{-3} V

∴ Q = 4.22 \times 10^{-19} C

The magnitude of charge on both conductor is same as above but the sign of charge is different.

Charge on inner conductor is +Q and Charge on outer conductor is -Q.

An example of an atom that has no change is one that has A. 1 proton, 2 electrons, and 3 neutrons B. 3 protons,2 electrons, and
Vikki [24]

Your question asks which is an example of an atom that has no change, or charge.

Your answer would be C). 2 protons, 2 electrons, and 1 neutron

These atoms would be known as a neutral atom.

In order for an atom to be neutral, it must have the same amount of protons and electrons.

We know that Protons are positive

We also know that Electrons are negative

In order for the atom to be neutral, they must have an equal amount of protons and neutrons to "cancel out"

In answer choice C, you would see that there are 2 protons and 2 electrons.

2- 0 = 0, in which allows this atom to be neutral.

Therefore, answer choice C. 2 protons, 2 electrons, and 1 neutron would be your answer.
